OX-40
From
Recombinant Antibody
Specificity
OX-40 antibody binds specifically to CD4+ T blasts. CD134 is a protein of the TNFR superfamily. It binds to OX40 ligand of both the monomeric and trimeric states which results in co- stimulated proliferation.
Alternative Names
TNFRS4; Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 4; OX40 antigen; OX40L receptor; OX40; MRC OX40; MRC OX-40; OX-40
UniProt
P15725
Immunogen
OX40 antibody was prepared by immunizing mice with phytohaemagglutinin-activated rat lymph node cells.
Application Notes
OX-40 antibody results in Fc-dependent (i.e. not Fab or F(ab')2) stimulation of in vitro activated T cell proliferation, but is not mitogenic for resting cells. This antibody can also label CD4+ T blasts and can pull down CD134/CD134+ cells.
