Alternative Names
CD137; TNFRSF9; 41BB; 4-1BBL Ligand; Tumor necrosis factor superfamily member 9; TNF receptor superfamily member 9; LOB 12.3; LOB123; LOB12.3
UniProt

Immunogen
This antibody was generated by immunizing rats with recombinant CD137-Fc fusion protein.
Application Notes
This antibody can be used to detect mouse 4-1BB (CD137). In its original rat IgG1 format, this antibody had agonistic effect and prolonged survival of mice bearing CT26 or A31 tumors. In the original publication another clone LOB12 disclosed which has a rat IgG2a isotype. This has led to some confusion in the literature with regards to the original isotype of LOB12 and LOB12.3. We offer this antibody in both formats as well as murine versions so that researchers may choose the isotype most appropriate for their assays.
