Human 4-1BB Full-length Gene in Lentivector, Endotoxin-free DNA

Description

4­-1BB, also known as CD137, ILA and TNFRSF9, is a single-pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein of the TNF receptor superfamily (TNFRSF). 4­1BB is expressed as a disulfide­linked homodimer on activated T cells.  4-1BB is absent from naive T cells, but its expression is induced by lymphocyte activation. 4-1BB is the receptor for 4-1BB ligand/TNFSF9, which is expressed on antigen-presenting cells such as macrophages and activated B cells. 4-1BB mediated signaling pathway contributes to the proliferation, survival, and development of T cells. 4-1BB can also promote proliferation in peripheral monocytes, enhance T cell apoptosis triggered by TCR-CD3 activation, and regulate CD28 co-stimulation to promote Th1 cell responses.  4­1BB deficient mice show augmented T cell activation.  4-1BB and its ligand are also expressed in different human tumor tissues. 4­-1BB activation by crosslinking with its ligand or agonistic antibody enhances cytotoxic T cell and NK cell mediated anti­tumor immunity. 4­-1BB can interact with OX40 on activated T cells, forming a complex that responds to either ligand and inhibits Treg and CD8+ T cell proliferation.  4-1BB may also be involved in the development of inflammation in high fat diet­induced metabolic syndrome. The soluble form of 4­-1BB circulates at elevated levels in the serum of rheumatoid arthritis. 

  

 

Gene Symbol: 4-1BB;CD137; ILA; TNFRSF9; CDw137; MGC2172

 

NCBI Gene ID: 3604

 

Uniprot Entry: Q07011

 

Construct Details: Full length human 4-1BB/CD137 gene is subcloned into the Lentiviral expression vector pLTC with an upstream CMV promoter, which can be used for both transient and stable expression in mammalian cells.  It can be co-transfected with the LentiPAK DNA mix (SKU# LP-001) into HEK293 cells to produce high titer lentiviral particles.

 

Vector Type: pLTC (lentiviral expression vector containing a heterologous CMV promoter, see the vector map above)

 

Formulation: Supplied with 10 μg of endotoxin-free plasmid DNA at 200 ng/μl in sterile TE buffer (pH8.0)

 

Gene Insert Size: 768 (bp)

Primers: Gene insert coding sequence can be confirmed by following primers:

(a) forward (or 5'-end) primer: 5’-CAAATGGGCGGTAGGCGTG-3’;

(b) reverse (or 3'-end) primer: 5’-CGGGAAGCAATAGCATGATA-3’

 

 

Note: The sequence may vary due to the naturally occurring variants or mutations, such as single nucleotide polymorphism, or the artifact during PCR amplification.  High fidelity PCR systems should always be used.
