| Introduction | CD40 is a costimulatory molecule of the TNF receptor superfamily and is expressed on many cell types, such as B cells, monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts or vascular smooth muscle cells. Interaction of CD40 and its ligand CD154 (CD40L) is required for the generation of antibody responses to T-dependent antigens as well as for the development of germinal centers and memory B cells. In monocytes/macrophages CD40 engagement induces production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. CD40-CD154 interactions are also critical for development of CD4 T cell-dependent effector functions. CD40 links innate and adaptive immune responses to bacterial stimuli and serves as an important regulator affecting functions of other costimulatory molecules. |

| Host | Rabbit |
| Clonality | Monoclonal |
| Clone No. | A54scFv |
| Isotype | IgG Lambda |
| Immunogen | A54 human anti-CD40/TNFRSF5 scFv was selected from the n-CoDeR phage display library after 4 rounds of selections using biotinylated CD40-Fcgamma fusion protein as bait and subsequent capture of bound phages on streptavidin-caoted magnetic beads. |

| Application | ELISA, IF |
| Reactivity | Human |
| Specificity | A54 binds specifically to the D1 domain of CD40/TNFRSF5 (and can only bind to the intact i.e. non-truncated version of CD40/TNFRSF5 and when an AD2 peptide tag has not been added) and can recognise CD40/TNFRSF5 on a B cell line (BJAB). This scFv binds to CD40/TNFRSF5 (immobilized by amine coupling) with a KD within the range of 40nM. CD40/TNFRSF5 is a glycoprotein of the TNFR superfamily and is expressed on all mature B cells, dendritic cells, activated monocytes, some endothelial cells and some epithelium including the thymus. CD40/TNFRSF5 binds to the membrane protein CD154 of the TNF superfamily and this interaction is required for the seconfary immune responses and germinal centre formation. |
