BCMA [Biotinylated]: BAFF Inhibitor Screening ELISA Kit | EP-118| Gentaur Distribution US, UK & Europe
TNFRSF17 is a member of the TNF-receptor family, known as tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17, also known as B cell maturation antigen (BCMA or BCM) or CD269. It is a protein encoded by TNFRSF17 gene. The receptor is expressed on the surface of B lymphocytes and plasma cells and is a marker protein of B lymphocyte maturation.The main ligands of BCMA are BAFF and APRIL. BCMA combined with BAFF could activate the classical and non-classical NF-κB and JNK signaling pathways, up-regulate the expression of anti-apoptotic protein and down-regulate the expression of pro-apoptotic protein. When BCMA binds to APRIL, the expression level of immune checkpoint is up-regulated, creating an immunosuppressed bone marrow microenvironment.

Molecule: BCMA.
Format: Solid.
Species: Human.
Application: This kit is developed for screening for inhibitors of human BCMA binding to human BAFF.
Kit Component: This inhibitor screening Assay kit is designed to facilitate the identification and characterization of new BCMA pathway inhibitors. The assay takes advantage of our in house-developed binding of biotinylated human BCMA to immobilized human BAFF in a functional chemiluminescence assay. Briefly, we provide you with a human Biotinylated BCMA protein, a human BAFF protein, an anti-BCMA neutralizing antibody (as method verified Std.), and Streptavidin-HRP reagent.
Stability: The unopened kit is stable for 12 months from the date of manufacture if stored at 2°C to 8°C. The opened kit should be stored per components table. The shelf life is 30 days from the date of opening.
Storage Conditions: 2-8℃.
Shipping Conditions: RT
