CHO-K1 cell line expressing full length human CD27 (TNFRSF7). Expression is confirmed by real time qPCR, Western blot, and flow cytometry.
Screening for antibodies recognizing CD27 and screening antibodies for binding affinities. Since CHO-K1 cells do not express endogenous CD27, this cell line serves as an excellent model for studying changes in CD27-mediated signaling pathways, such as NF-kB, MAPK and SAPK/JNK.

Mycoplasma Testing
This cell line has been screened using the MycoAlert™ Mycoplasma Detection Kit (Lonza, Cat.
#LT07-118) to confirm the absence of Mycoplasma contamination. MycoAlert Assay Control Set
(Lonza, Cat. #LT07-518) was used as a positive control.
Background
CD27 is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily, which includes the
T cell co-stimulatory receptors OX40, 4-1BB and herpesvirus entry mediator (HVEM). CD27 is
expressed on various types of T cells, B cells and a subset of natural killer cells. It activates NF-
kB and MAPK/JNK signaling upon interaction with its TNF-like ligand, CD70, which is expressed
by numerous tumor cells. Adaptor proteins TRAF2 and TRAF5 can also stimulate CD27
signaling. Activation of CD27 leads to lymphoid proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and the
induction of long-term memory. The CD27/CD70 pathway is a key target for the development of
treatments for cancer and inflammatory diseases.
