Properties

Applications

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab8396 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Application Notes
ICC/IF ICC/IF: Use a concentration of 1 µg/ml.
WB WB: Use a concentration of 0.25 - 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 34 kDa.Can be blocked with BAFF (C-term) peptide (human) (ab8397).

Target

  • FunctionCytokine 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.
  • Tissue specificityAbundantly expressed in peripheral blood Leukocytes and is specifically expressed in monocytes and macrophages. Also found in the spleen, lymph node, bone marrow, T-cells and dendritic cells. A lower expression seen in placenta, heart, lung, fetal liver, thymus, and pancreas.
  • Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the tumor necrosis factor family.
  • Post-translational
    modifications    The soluble form derives from the membrane form by proteolytic processing.
    N-glycosylated.
  • Cellular localizationSecreted and Cell membrane.

Dear Tech support,   One of our customers has ordered ab8396 and needs a positive control for it for WB. Which of the available Baff protein/peptides would you recommend? The product ab8397 seems to have the exact amino acid sequence used as an immonogen ...

Thank you for your inquiry. The ab8396 can only be used for blocking. Indeed, the peptide is very short containing only 16 amino acids. I would therefore not recommend it for using as a control by loading on the gel. It would run at around 1.8kD - which i...

I need to find a Baff antibody which can be used for IHC. Has ab7357 or ab8396 been tested for IHC? Thanks.

Thank you for your enquiry. To our knowledge, neither of these antibodies have yet to be tested in IHC. All tested applications are specified on Abcam product datasheets. If you decide to go ahead and purchase one of these products, please let us know h...
