Host Species | Human |
Accession | NP_001552.2 |
Synonym | 4-1BB, CD137, CDw137, ILA |
Background | CD137 (also known as 4-1BB) is a surface co-stimulatory glycoprotein originally described as present on activated T lymphocytes, which belongs to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily. It is expressed mainly on activated CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, and binds to a high-affinity ligand (4-1BBL) expressed on several antigen-presenting cells such as macrophages and activated B cells. Upon ligand binding, 4-1BB is associated with the tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factors (TRAFs), the adaptor protein which mediates downstream signaling events including the activation of NF-kappaB and cytokine production. 4-1BB signaling either by binding to 4-1BBL or by antibody ligation delivers signals for T-cell activation and growth, as well as monocyte proliferation and B-cell survival, and plays an important role in the amplification of T cell-mediated immune responses. In addition, CD137 and CD137L are expressed in different human primary tumor tissues, suggesting that they may influence the progression of tumors. Crosslinking of CD137 on activated T cells has shown promise in enhancing anti-tumor immune responses in murine models, and agonistic anti-CD137 antibodies are currently being tested in phase I clinical trials.Immune CheckpointImmune Checkpoint Detection: AntibodiesImmune Checkpoint Detection: ELISA AntibodiesImmune Checkpoint ProteinsImmune Checkpoint TargetsCo-stimulatory Immune Checkpoint Targets ImmunotherapyCancer ImmunotherapyTargeted Therapy |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the human 4-1BB extracellular domain (NP_001552.2) (Met 1-Gln 186) was fused with a His tag at the C-terminus. |
Source | HEK293 |
Predicted N Terminal | Leu 24 |
AA Sequence | Met 1-Gln 186 |
Molecular Weight | The recombinant human 4-1BB consists of 174 a.a. and has a calculated molecular mass of 18.8 kDa. By SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rh4-1BB is approximately 33-36 kDa due to glycosylation. |
Purity | >85% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method |
Bioactivity | 1.Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. 2.Immobilized human TNFRSF9 at 10ug/mL (100uL/well) can bind human TNFSF9,the EC50 of human TNFSF9 is 7-40ng/mL. |
