Recombinant Mouse Tnfsf13b protein, His/S-tagged

• Cat.No.: Tnfsf13b-220R
• Product Overview: Recombinant Mouse Tnfsf13b fused with His/S tag was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: B-cell activating factor, also known as BAFF, TALL-1, TNAK, and zTNF4, is a member of theTNF ligand superfamily designated TNFSF13B. Produced by macrophages, dendritic cells, and T lymphocytes, BAFF promotes the survival of B cells and is essential for B cell maturation. BAFF binds to three TNF receptor superfamily members: B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA/TNFRSF17), transmembrane activator and calcium-modulator and cyclophilin ligand interactor (TACI/TNFRSF13B) and BAFF receptor (BAFF R/BR3/TNFRSF 13C). These receptors are type III transmembrane proteins lacking a signal peptide. Whereas TACI and BCMA bind BAFF and another TNF superfamily ligand, APRIL(a proliferation-inducing ligand), BAFF R selectively binds BAFF. The BAFF R extracellular domain lacks the TNF receptor canonical cysteine-rich domain (CRD) and contains only a partial CRD with four cysteine residues. Human and mouse BAFF R share 56% aa sequence identity. BAFF R is highly expressed in spleen, lymph node and resting B cells. It is also expressed at lower levels in activated B cell, resting CD4+ T cells, thymus and peripheral blood leukocytes.
