CD40 Ligand (CD40LG) (TNFSF5), mouse recombinant (rmoCD40LG)

Produced in Yeast.

Protein function: Cytokine that binds to CD40/TNFRSF5. Costimulates T-cell proliferation and cytokine production. Its cross-linking on T- cells generates a costimulatory signal which enhances the production of IL4 and IL10 in conjunction with the TCR/CD3 ligation and CD28 costimulation. Induces the activation of NF- kappa-B and kinases MAPK8 and PAK2 in T-cells. Mediates B-cell proliferation in the absence of co-stimulus as well as IgE production in the presence of IL4. Involved in immunoglobulin class switching (PubMed:1374165). [The UniProt Consortium]
