Hintergrund
The MR1 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with mouse CD154, a 39kDA transmembrane glycoprotein also known as CD40 ligand and gp39. CD154 is expressed on activated T cells and plays a role in B-T cell costimulation. The interaction of CD154 with CD40 induces B cell cycle entry and the signaling for T-dependent B cell activation. By interfering with this interaction, the MR1 antibody is reported to inhibit T and B lymphocyte activation.
