Cat. No. | MABL-3113 |
Name | Anti-TLR4 mAbs |
Clone No. | AFD- NI-0101 |
From | Recombinant Antibody |
Isotype | Engineer antibody |
Application | crystallization, FACS, functional assays, inhibition, SPR, ELISA |
Species Reactivity | Human |
Basic Information | |
Specificity | This antibody is specific for human TLR4 and binds the LRR 9 domain (residues 328-YN-329, 349-KLK-351); it engages both FcγRI and FcγRIIA, but not FcγRIII. |
Alternative Name | hToll; CD284; Toll-like receptor 4; hu 15C1; hu15C1 |
UniProt | O00206 |
Immunogen | The original antibody was generated through a humanization process involving CDR grafting of the original mouse anti-TLR4 clone 15C1 onto selected human germline sequences and performing framework optimization. |
Application Notes | The original antibody (human IgG1) was generated and used for SPR, FACS, and various functional assays. SPR determined the binding affinity of Hu 15C1 with Fcγ receptors and TLR4, showing strong binding to FcγRI (47.3 ± 1.3 nM) and FcRn (1.82 ± 0.09 nM) and moderate binding to FcγRIIA 131R (0.151 ± 0.015 µM), FcγRIIA 131H (0.311 ± 0.037 µM), and FcγRIIB (0.870 ± 0.038 µM). FACS assays evaluated Hu 15C1 binding to CHO cells expressing human TLR4 and MD-2. Functional assays included human macrophage and U937 cell assays to measure IL-6 production, confocal microscopy, and FRET analysis to visualize TLR4 and Fcγ receptor interactions, and LPS lung instillation in mice to assess cytokine and antibody levels in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. |

Note on publication | The original publication describes the humanization and characterization of this antibody clone and a novel mechanism where anti-TLR4 antibodies are designed to tether both TLR4 and Fcγ receptors. |
