| 4-1BB receptor (4-1BBR), also known as CD137, is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein and member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, predominantly expressed by activated T cells, which acts as a receptor for 4-1BB ligand (4-1BBL). Interaction between CD137 and 4-1BBL, acts as a co-stimulatory signal for T cell activation and expansion, and is involved in the generation of cytotoxic T cells (Tc) and in the process of antigen presentation. CD137 also binds to the adaptor proteins TRAF1, 2 and 3 to act as a signal transducer of NF-kappaB activation. | | | Catalog # | 0004-02F | | Source | E.coli | | Applications | Suitable for use in Functional Assays. Other applications not tested. | | Recommended Dilution | Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. | | Endotoxin | 1EU/ug | | Molecular Weight | 17.7kD (167 amino acid residues) | | Biological Activity | Determined by its inhibitory effect of the 4-1BBL mediated stimulation of IL-8 production by human PBMC. About 90% of inhibition was seen using a concentration of 1µg for both CD137 and 4-1BBL. | | Storage and Stability | Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile buffer or ddH2O. Aliquot and store at -20°C. Reconstituted product is stable for 6 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. | | Source | E. coli | | Purity | 98% (SDS PAGE and HPLC). | | Concentration | ~0.1mg/ml | | Form | Supplied in lyophilized powder. Reconstitute with 200ul sterile dH20. | | | Important Note | This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications without the expressed written authorization of United States Biological. |
