Tissue specificity
B-cells and in primary carcinomas. -
Involvement in disease
Defects in CD40 are the cause of hyper-IgM immunodeficiency syndrome type 3 (HIGM3) [MIM:606843]; also known as hyper-IgM syndrome 3. HIGM3 is an autosomal recessive disorder which includes an inability of B cells to undergo isotype switching, one of the final differentiation steps in the humoral immune system, an inability to mount an antibody-specific immune response, and a lack of germinal center formation. -
Sequence similarities
Contains 4 TNFR-Cys repeats. -

All lanes : Anti-CD40 antibody [EPR20540] (ab213205) at 1/2000 dilution
Lane 1 : Wild-type U-2 OS whole cell lysate
Lane 2 : CD40 knockout U-2 OS whole cell lysate
Lane 3 : Raji (Human Burkitt's lymphoma cell line) whole cell lysate
Lysates/proteins at 20 µg per lane.
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 30 kDa
Observed band size: 42 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?Lanes 1 - 3: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab213205 observed at 42 kDa. Red - loading control, ab7291 (Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A] observed at 55kDa.
ab213205 was shown to react with CD40 in U-2 OS wild-type cells in Western blot. Loss of signal was observed when CD40 knockout sample was used. U-2 OS wild-type and CD40 knockout cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membranes were blocked in 3% Milk in TBS-T (0.1% Tween®) before incubation with ab213205 and ab7291 (Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A] overnight at 4°C at a 1 in 2000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-CD40 antibody [EPR20540] (ab213205)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human tonsil tissue labeling CD40 with ab213205 at 1/1000 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) (ab97051) at 1/500 dilution.
Membranous and cytoplasmic staining on germinal center of human tonsil is observed [PMID: 10360965] [PMID: 7507299] [PMID:24452203].
Counter stained with Hematoxylin.
Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) (ab97051) at 1/500 dilution.
Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9.0 before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
