Basic Information | |
Specificity | This antibody binds to the human 4-1BB, which is expressed on the surface of activated T cells. |
Alternative Name | CD137; MGC2172; Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 9 (TNFRSF9); T cell antigen ILA; Interleukin activated receptor; 4-1BB ligand receptor CDw137; T-cell antigen 4-1BB homolog; T-cell antigen ILA. |
UniProt | Q07011 |
Immunogen | The original antibody was generated by immunizing BALB/c mice with a fusion protein of human 4-1BB antigen and glutathione s transferase (GST). |
Application Notes | The antibody has good binding affinity for Con A-activated T cells and has an immunosuppressive activity towards lymphocyte proliferation in the in vitro mixed lymphocyte reaction. The binding of antibody to surface expressed 4-1BB molecule was assessed using flow cytometry and ELISA was used to check whether the cell culture had binding affinity to 4-1BB (Kim et al., 1995). The interaction of this antibody with CD137 is reported to induce an increase in TNF-α production by monocytes. This antibody competes with mAb M121 for binding to CD137 (PMID: 10607752). This antiboy also induces the production of IFN-γ in NK cells in presence of IL-15 (PMID: 20008791).This antibody can be used in blocking assays and staining methods (PMID: 14746806). |
