Biochem/physiol Actions

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. Recombinant human BAFFR is a 76 amino acid polypeptide (7.7 kDa) corresponding to the extracellular portion of the full BAFFR protein.

General description

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.

Physical form

Lyophilized from 0.5x PBS, pH 7.2.

Reconstitution

Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.
