The CD40LG cd40lg (Catalog #MBS128680) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The CD40LG Polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. MyBioSource\'s CD40LG can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunofluorescence (IF).WB: 1:500 - 1:2000
IHC: 1:50 - 1:200
IF: 1:50 - 1:200. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CD40LG cd40lg for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.
The CD40LG cd40lg product has the following accession number(s) (GI #231718) (NCBI Accession #P29965.1) (Uniprot Accession #P29965). Researchers may be interested in using Bioinformatics databases such as those available at The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) website for more information about accession numbers and the proteins they represent. Even researchers unfamiliar with bioinformatics databases will find the NCBI databases to be quite user friendly and useful.

Secondary antibody: HRP Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L) (MBS128200) at 1:10000 dilution.
Lysates/proteins: 25ug per lane.
Blocking buffer: 3% nonfat dry milk in TBST.)
Immunofluorescence (IF) (Immunofluorescence analysis of U2OS cells using CD40LG antibody. Blue: DAPI for nuclear staining.)
CD40 Ligand (CD40L), a member of the TNF superfamily of ligands, is expressed as either a membrane-bound or soluble homotrimer (1). Both membrane-bound and soluble forms of CD40L have biological activity (1,2). CD40L is expressed primarily on activated T cells; however, mast cells, basophils, and NK cells may also express CD40L (1). CD40L functions as an important T cell co-stimulatory molecule and enhances T-dependent B cell responses (1,2). CD40L binds CD40, which is a receptor expressed on B cells, dendritic cells, and macrophages (1). Binding of CD40L to CD40 leads to the recruitment of TRAF proteins (TRAFs 2,3,5, and 6) resulting in the activation of the JNK and NF-kappaB pathways (1,2).
Species: Human
Immunogen: Recombinant Protein. Immunogen: N term -peptide of human CD40LG
Calculated Molecular Weight: 29kDa. In general, we may offer more than one antibody to a given target to enable options for the researcher. Available antibodies recognizing CD40LG are readily searchable from our website. Different antibodies against the same target such as CD40LG may be optimized or tested for different applications and species. This enables researchers to select the option that may be best for their model system, to screen more than antibody to determine which one may be best for their model system, as well as to use more than one antibody to follow up on and validate their results.
