Recombinant human BCMA protein with C-terminal human Fc and6Ã-His tag

Expression Host : HEK293 The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 32.7 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of BCMA-hFc-His is approximately 40 kDa due to glycosylation. B-cell maturation protein (BCMA or BCM), is also known as Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17 (TNFRSF17), which is encoded by the TNFRSF17 gene. TNFRSF17 is a cell surface receptor of the TNF receptor superfamily which recognizes B-cell activating factor (BAFF) .This receptor is expressed in immune organs and mature B cell lines. BCMA promotes B-cell survival and plays a role in the regulation of humoral immunity. BCMA can activate NF-kappa-B and JNK.
