4-1BBL, a member of the TNF superfamily, is expressed in B cells, dendritic cells, activated T cells and macrophages. 4-1BBL binds to its receptor 4-1BB, and provides a co-stimulatory signal for T cell activation and expansion. The human 4-1BBL gene codes for a 254 amino acid type II transmembrane containing a 28 amino acid cytoplasmic domain, a 21 amino acid transmembrane domain, and a 205 amino acid extracellular domain. The soluble form of 4-1BL contains the TNF-like portion of the extracellular domain of 4-1BBL. Recombinant human 4-1BBL is a soluble 19.5 kDa protein consisting of 185 amino acid residues.

Lyophilized from 5 mM Tris, pH 8.0 + 75 mM NaCl.

Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.
