Description:

Recombinant Human BAFF protein with N-terminal human Fc

Background:

The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine that belongs to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) ligand family. This cytokine is a ligand for receptors TNFRSF13B/TACI, TNFRSF17/BCMA, and TNFRSF13C/BAFFR. This cytokine is expressed in B cell lineage cells, and acts as a potent B cell activator. It has been also shown to play an important role in the proliferation and differentiation of B cells. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified.

Molecular characterization:

hFc(Glu99-Ala330) BAFF(Ala134-Leu285)

Molecular weight:

The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 43.2 kDa after removal of the signal peptide.The apparent molecular mass of hFc-BAFF is approximately 50-55 kDa due to glycosylation.

Tag:

N-Human Fc Tag

Expression host:

HEK293

Target:

BAFF

Purity:

The purity of the protein is greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining.

Formulation / Reconstitution:

Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8% trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization. Please see Certificate of Analysis for specific instructions of reconstitution.

Storage:

Store at -20°C to -80°C for 12 months in lyophilized form. After reconstitution, if not intended for use within a month, aliquot and store at -80°C (Avoid repeated freezing and thawing). Lyophilized proteins are shipped at ambient temperature.
