Molecular Weight | The secreted recombinant human CD40 comprises 184 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 20.7 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, rhCD40 migrates as an approximately 32 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions. |
predicted N | Glu 21 |

Purity | > 98 % as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Protein Construction | A DNA sequence encoding the human CD40 (NP_001241.1) extracellular domain (Met 1-Arg 193) was expressed, with a C-terminal polyhistidine tag. |
Bio-activity | Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA . Immobilized recombinant human CD40 at 2 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind biotinylated human CD40L with a linear range of 15.6-500 ng/ml. |

Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4 1. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA. |
Background | CD40, also known as TNFRSF5, is a member of the TNF receptor superfamily which are single transmembrane-spanning glycoproteins. CD40 protein plays an essential role in mediating a broad variety of immune and inflammatory responses including T cell-dependent immunoglobulin class switching, memory B cell development, and germinal center formation. CD40 protein is expressed in B cells, dendritic cells, macrophages, endothelial cells, and several tumor cell lines. Defects in CD40 result in hyper-IgM immunodeficiency type 3 (HIGM3). In addition, CD40/CD40L interaction is found to be necessary for amyloid-beta-induced microglial activation, and thus is thought to be an early event in Alzheimer disease pathogenesis. |
