CD40L Recombinant Antibody [AT161-8]

Avian erythroblastic leukemia viral (v-erb-b) oncogene homolog; cell growth inhibiting protein 40; cell proliferation-inducing protein 61; epidermal growth factor receptor; epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase domain; ERBB; ERBB1; erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 1; ERRP; HER1; mENA; NISBD2; PIG61; proto-oncogene c-ErbB-1; receptor tyrosine-protein kinase erbB-1.

The parental mouse antibody was generated by immunizing BALB/c mice intraperitoneally with A431 cells in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) . Later on the humanzied version of the antibody was created by grafting CDRs of the murine antibody onto human constant regions.

Receptor tyrosine kinase binding ligands of the EGF family and activating several signaling cascades to convert extracellular cues into appropriate cellular responses (PubMed:2790960, PubMed:10805725, PubMed:27153536) . Known ligands include EGF, TGFA/TGF-alpha, AREG, epigen/EPGN, BTC/betacellulin, epiregulin/EREG and HBEGF/heparin-binding EGF (PubMed:2790960, PubMed:7679104, PubMed:8144591, PubMed:9419975, PubMed:15611079, PubMed:12297049, PubMed:27153536, PubMed:20837704) . Ligand binding triggers receptor homo- and/or heterodimerization and autophosphorylation on key cytoplasmic residues. The phosphorylated receptor recruits adapter proteins like GRB2 which in turn activates complex downstream signaling cascades. Activates at least 4 major downstream signaling cascades including the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK, PI3 kinase-AKT, PLCgamma-PKC and STATs modules (PubMed:27153536) . May also activate the NF-kappa-B signaling cascade (PubMed:11116146) . Also directly phosphorylates other proteins like RGS16, activating its GTPase activity and probably coupling the EGF receptor signaling to the G protein-coupled receptor signaling (PubMed:11602604) . Also phosphorylates MUC1 and increases its interaction with SRC and CTNNB1/beta-catenin (PubMed:11483589) . Plays a role in enhancing learning and memory performance (By similarity) .
