Description

Description: HI40a is an anti-human monoclonal antibody that targets the CD40 antigen. CD40 (alternatively called TNFRSF5) is a 48 kD transmembrane protein that is found on the surface of cells such as dendritic cells and epithelial cells. CD40 is a member of important cellular pathways, for instance, the tumor necrosis factor-mediated signaling pathway, immune response-regulating cell surface receptor signaling pathway and CD40 signaling pathway. Also, in many organisms, it upregulates GTPase activity, is a promoter of protein kinase C signaling and promotes transcription by RNA polymerase II. From a research standpoint, it is of biological interest due to its association with key macromolecules/ligands like TRAP and CD154. CD40 is a very popular antibody target, with over 30000 publications in the last decade. CD40 is commonly used in flow cytometry applications as a phenotypic marker for differentiation of cell types, specifically in the study of cell biology and neuroscience. This antibody was purified through affinity chromatography and conjugated to PE/iFluor® 700 (ex/em = 566/708 nm). It is compatible with the 561 nm laser and 710/50 nm bandpass filter (for example, as in the BD FACSAria™ III).
