General description

CD40 Ligand (CD40L/TRAP) is a type II membrane protein which, effectuates the helper function of T cells on resting B cells. GF101 is a 16.3 kDa protein containing 149 amino acid residues comprising the receptor binding TNF-like domain of CD40L.
Product Source: Recombinant human

Physical form

Sterile filtered and lyophilized from 10 mM Sodium Phosphate, pH 7.5.

Preparation Note

The lyophilized protein is stable for a few weeks for at room temperature but is best stored at -20ºC. Reconstitute in water to 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. This solution can be diluted into other aqueous buffers and stored at 2-8ºC for one week or -20ºC for future use. Reconstituted sCD40L/TRAP should be stored at -20ºC in undiluted aliquots for up to 6 months. Freeze/thaw cycles will result in significant loss of activity.
