NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is expressed on the surface of T cells. It regulates B cell function by engaging CD40 on the B cell surface. A defect in this gene results in an inability to undergo immunoglobulin class switch and is associated with hyper-IgM syndrome. [provided by RefSeq]
Uniprot Description
Function: Mediates B-cell proliferation in the absence of co-stimulus as well as IgE production in the presence of IL-4. Involved in immunoglobulin class switching. Ref.10Release of soluble CD40L from platelets is partially regulated by GP IIb/IIIa, actin polymerization, and an matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) inhibitor-sensitive pathway. Ref.10
Subunit structure: Homotrimer.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. CD40 ligand, soluble form: Secreted.
Tissue specificity: Specifically expressed on activated CD4+ T-lymphocytes.
Post-translational modification: The soluble form derives from the membrane form by proteolytic processing.N-linked glycan is a mixture of high mannose and complex type. Glycan structure does not influence binding affinity to CD40.Not O-glycosylated. Ref.9
Involvement in disease: Defects in CD40LG are the cause of X-linked immunodeficiency with hyper-IgM type 1 (HIGM1) [
MIM:308230]; also known as X-linked hyper IgM syndrome (XHIM). HIGM1 is an immunoglobulin isotype switch defect characterized by elevated concentrations of serum IgM and decreased amounts of all other isotypes. Affected males present at an early age (usually within the first year of life) recurrent bacterial and opportunistic infections, including Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia and intractable diarrhea due to cryptosporidium infection. Despite substitution treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin, the overall prognosis is rather poor, with a death rate of about 10% before adolescence. Ref.3 Ref.13 Ref.14 Ref.15 Ref.16 Ref.17 Ref.18 Ref.19 Ref.20 Ref.21
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family.

Product Notes
The CD40LG cd40lg (Catalog #AAA312102) is an Antibody produced from Host: Mouse. Hybridization of Sp 2/0 myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice. Source: Ascites and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The MAb to CD40L reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's CD40L can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, EIA/ELISA, Western Blot. 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. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "CD40L, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
