BAFF Receptor, human recombinant
A TNF receptor that specifically interacts with BAFF
Product Overview
Alternate Names / Synonyms: human BAFF Receptor, h-BAFF Receptor, rh-BAFF Receptor, recombinant human BAFF Receptor, recombinant BAFF Receptor
Gene Symbol: TR13C
Accession #: Q96RJ3
Gene ID: 115650
Source: E. coli
Appearance: Lyophilized protein
Physical Form Description: Sterile filtered and lyophilized from a solution (1 mg/ml) containing 20 mM phosphate buffer, pH 8.0, and 500 mM NaCl.
Molecular Weight: 7.7 kDa
Purity by SDS-PAGE: ≥95%
Purity by HPLC: ≥95%

Biological Activity: Determined by its ability to block BAFF induced mouse splenocyte survival. The expected ED₅₀ for this effect is typically 1-5 µg/ml in the presence of 1 µg/ml human soluble BAFF.
Reconstitution Instructions: Reconstitute in sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. This solution can then be diluted into other aqueous buffers or stored at 4°C for 1 week or –20°C for future use.
Storage Temp.: -20°C
Shipping: Gel pack
Background Information: BAFF Receptor (BAFFR), a member of the TNFR superfamily, is highly expressed in spleen, lymph node, and resting B cells and to some extent in activated B cells, resting CD4+ cells and peripheral blood leukocytes. BAFFR is a type III transmembrane protein that binds with high specificity to BAFF (TNFSF13B). BAFFR/BAFF signaling plays a critical role in B cell survival and maturation. Recombinant human BAFFR is a 76 amino acid polypeptide (7.7 kDa) corresponding to the extraCellular portion of the full BAFFR protein.
Handling: Centrifuge the vial prior to opening.
Usage: For Research Use Only! Not to be used in humans. |
