Species: | Human |
Target: | BAFF |
Synonyms: | BAFF, BLYS, CD257, TALL1, THANK, ZTNF4, TALL-1, TNFSF20, TNFSF13B, B-cell Activating Factor. |
Source: | Nicotiana benthamiana plant |
Physical Appearance: | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
Formulation: | Lyophilized from 1mg/ml solution in 20 mM PBS buffer pH 7 and 0.2 M NaCl. |
Solubility: | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized BAFF in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100�g/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
Stability: | Lyophilized�BAFF although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution�BAFF should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Purity: | Greater than 97.0% as determined by Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |

Biological Activity: | The activity is determined by dose-dependent stimulation of proliferation B cell from Human PBMC. Cell proliferation was measured by MTT method. *activity results may vary with PBMC donors. ED50 ? 50ng/ml |
BAFF binds to tnfrsf13b/taci and tnfrsf17/bcma. Tnfsf13/april binds to the same 2 receptors, together, they form a 2 ligands -2 receptors pathway involved in the stimulation of b- and t-cell function and the regulation of humoral immunity.A third b-cell specific baff-receptor (baffr/br3) promotes the survival of mature b-cells and the b-cell response.B Lymphocyte Stimulator functions as a potent B-cell growth factor in costimulation assays. Administration of BAFF Human recombinant to mice disrupts splenic B-cell and T-cell zones and results in elevated levels of serum immunoglobulin.
BAFF human Recombinant produced in Nicotiana benthamiana plant is a single glycosilated polypeptide chain containing 151 amino acids fragment�(134-285).BAFF (C830H1277N223O242S5) is fused to a 10-His-tag at the N-terminal having the total molecular mass of 18-20kDa and purified by standard chromatographic techniques.
UniProt Protein Function: | BAFF: Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF13B/TACI and TNFRSF17/BCMA. TNFSF13/APRIL binds to the same 2 receptors. Together, they form a 2 ligands -2 receptors pathway involved in the stimulation of B- and T-cell function and the regulation of humoral immunity. A third B-cell specific BAFF-receptor (BAFFR/BR3) promotes the survival of mature B-cells and the B-cell response. Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |

NCBI Summary: | The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine that belongs to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) ligand family. This cytokine is a ligand for receptors TNFRSF13B/TACI, TNFRSF17/BCMA, and TNFRSF13C/BAFFR. This cytokine is expressed in B cell lineage cells, and acts as a potent B cell activator. It has been also shown to play an important role in the proliferation and differentiation of B cells. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified.
