Storage Note

Store at 4⁰C for up to 3 months. Note, this antibody is provided without added preservatives, it is therefore recommed this antibody be handled under sterile conditions. For longer storage, aliquot and store at -20⁰C.

Application Notes

A54 is able to block the CD40-CD154 interaction by around 60-80% and can also induce CD40 sinalling in human B cells when at 'unusually high concentrations' (The CD40 receptor - target, tool and technology, Ellmark, 2002). This scFv can also be used for ELISA studies (PMID: 12153507)

Short Description

This full-length, chimeric mouse antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Human scFv format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
