Function
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. -
Tissue specificity
Abundantly 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 similarities
Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family. -
Post-translational
modificationsThe soluble form derives from the membrane form by proteolytic processing.
N-glycosylated. -
Cellular localization
Secreted and Cell membrane. - Information by UniProt
