Apoptosis Antibodies
products description :
Members of the TNF superfamily regulate immune responses and induce apoptosis. A novel member of the TNF superfamily was recently identified and designated BAFF (B Cell Activating Factor of the TNF Family) or BlyS (B Lymphocyte Stimulator), TALL-1 (TNF- and ApoL-Related Leukocyte-Expressed Ligand), and THANK (TNF Homologue that Activates Apoptosis, NF- kappa B and c-jun N-terminal Kinase). BAFF is designated a B cell stimulator since it induces B cell proliferation and immunoglobulin secretion. BAFF and its receptors are involved in the development of systemic lupus erythematosus and other B cell-associated autoimmune diseases.

ncbi summary :
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.

uniprot summary :
BAFF: Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF13B/TACI and TNFRSF17/BCMA. TNFSF13/APRIL binds to the same 2 receptors. Together, they form a 2 ligands -2 receptors pathway involved in the stimulation of B- and T-cell function and the regulation of humoral immunity. A third B-cell specific BAFF-receptor (BAFFR/BR3) promotes the survival of mature B-cells and the B-cell response. Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Cytokine; Cell cycle regulation; Apoptosis; Membrane protein, integral. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 13q32-q34. Cellular Component: extracellular space; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; cytoplasm; plasma membrane; integral to membrane. Molecular Function: protein binding; cytokine activity; tumor necrosis factor receptor binding; receptor binding. Biological Process: cell proliferation; B cell costimulation; B cell homeostasis; immunoglobulin secretion; T cell costimulation; positive regulation of cell proliferation; positive regulation of B cell proliferation; positive regulation of germinal center formation; positive regulation of T cell proliferation; immune response; signal transduction
