Active Recombinant Human TNFSF13B

• Cat.No.: TNFSF13B-135H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human tumor necrosis factor (ligand) encoding the human BAFF protein sequence (containing the signal peptide sequence and the mature BAFF sequence) was expressed in modifiedhuman 293 cells.

Specification

• Cat. No.: TNFSF13B-63H
• Description: BAFF is a type II membrane glycoprotein expressed by T cells, dendritic cells, macrophages and neutrophils. BAFF is predominantly a B cell survival factor and specifically promotes the proliferation and survival of activated B cells by inducing expression of pro-survival oncogenes including Bcl-xL, Bcl-2 and Mcl-1. BAFF also mediates Ig switching to IgD as well as B cell maturation, suggesting it plays a role in humoral immune responses.
• Source: Human 293 cells.

• Molecular Mass: BAFFB migrates as a band between 15 and 20 kDa in SDS-PAGE. This compares with the predicted molecular mass of 17 kDa.
• pI: Due to post-translational modifications the Symansis BAFFB separates into a number of glycoforms with a pI between 4.7 and 5.5 on 2D PAGE. This is in agreement with the unmodified BAFF that has a predicted pI of 4.9.
• Purity: >95%, as determined by SDS-PAGE and visualized by Coomassie Brilliant Blue.
• Formulation: When reconstituted in 0.5 ml sterile phosphate-buffered saline, the solution will contain 1% human serum albumin (HSA) and 10% trehalose.
• Reconstitution: It is recommended that 0.5 ml of sterile phosphate-buffered saline be added to the vial.
• Storage: Lyophilized products should be stored at 2 to 8°C. Following reconstitution short-term storage at 4°C is recommended, with longer-term storage in aliquots at -18 to -20°C. Repeated freeze thawing is not recommended.
• Activity: The ED₅₀of BAFFB is typically 5-10 ng/ml as measured by its ability to neutralise dexamethasone toxicity using the RPMI 8226 cell line.
