Human BAFFR / TNFRSF13C Protein, His Tag (MALS verified)

BAFF receptor (B-cell activating factor receptor, BAFF-R), also known as tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 13C (TNFRSF13C), is a membrane protein of the TNF receptor superfamily which recognizes BAFF. B-cell activating factor (BAFF) enhances B-cell survival in vitro and is a regulator of the peripheral B-cell population. Overexpression of BAFF in mice results in mature B-cell hyperplasia and symptoms of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) . Also, some SLE patients have increased levels of BAFF in serum. Therefore, it has been proposed that abnormally high levels of BAFF may contribute to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases by enhancing the survival of autoreactive B cells.

This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus. The protein has a calculated MW of 8.6 kDa. The protein migrates as 17-22 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

● -20°C to -70°C for 12 months in lyophilized state; ● -70°C for 3 months under sterile conditions after reconstitution. For long term storage, the product should be stored at lyophilized state at -20°C or lower.

Immobilized Human BAFF, Fc Tag, active trimer (Cat. No. BAF-H5261) at 1 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Human BAFFR Protein, His Tag (Cat. No. BAR-H52H3) with a linear range of 2-13 ng/mL (QC tested).
