Product details
The Human BAFF-R Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) kit (ab213839) is designed for the quantitative measurement of Human TNFRSF13C in cell culture supernatants, cell lysates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA).
The ELISA kit is based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A goat polyclonal antibody specific for BAFF-R has been pre-coated onto 96-well plates. Standards (Expression system for standard: NSO; Immunogen sequence: S7-A71) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for BAFF-R is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex is added and unbound conjugates are washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB is used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB is catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the Human BAFF-R amount of sample captured in plate.
BAFF-R (also known as Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 13C or B-cell-activating factor receptor) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNFRSF13C gene. By homology to a BAC clone, the BAFFR gene was mapped to chromosome 22q13.1-q13.31. B-cell activating factor (BAFF) enhances B-cell survival in vitro and is a regulator of the peripheral B-cell population. The protein encoded by this gene is a receptor for BAFF and is a type III transmembrane protein containing a single extracellular phenylalanine-rich domain. It is thought that this receptor is the principal receptor required for BAFF-mediated mature B-cell survival.

Biological function summary
BAFF-R is essential for the maturation and maintenance of peripheral B cells. The receptor contributes to the regulation of immune responses by ensuring B-cell homeostasis. It does not generally form part of a larger protein complex but instead functions as a membrane-bound receptor that transmits signals upon binding with the BAFF ligand. This signaling cascade supports the survival and proliferation of B cells which is fundamental for the adaptive immune system.
Pathways
BAFF-R is deeply involved in the NF-κB signaling pathway which is important for immune regulation and cell survival. Upon binding with BAFF BAFF-R recruits associated proteins to initiate the pathway and as a result promotes gene transcription important for B-cell function. Another connected pathway involves AKT a protein kinase that regulates B-cell metabolism and differentiation. Both NF-κB and AKT pathways help facilitate the immune functions tied to B cells directly through BAFF-R signaling.
