CD268 / APC / REA1217
Product Details
| Description | Clone REA1217 recognizes the CD268 protein, also known as B cell activation factor receptor (BAFF-R), which is a type III transmembrane TNF receptor family member. CD268 is expressed at high levels on resting B cells, at lower levels on activated B cells, and on a small subset of activated/memory T cells. BAFF, also known as BLys, mediates costimulatory responses in peripheral B and T cells. BAFF is a key regulator for B cell differentiation as well as survival and activation of peripheral B cell populations. Accordingly, CD268 appears to be particularly involved in the regulation of normal B cell survival and maturation, but also in the pathophysiology of aggressive B cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases. | Additional information: Clone REA1217 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors. | |

About CD268
B cell-activating factor (BAFF) enhances B-cell survival in vitro and is a regulator of the peripheral B-cell population. Overexpression of Baff in mice results in mature B-cell hyperplasia and symptoms of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Also, some SLE patients have increased levels of BAFF in serum. Therefore, it has been proposed that abnormally high levels of BAFF may contribute to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases by enhancing the survival of autoreactive B cells. The protein encoded by this gene is a receptor for BAFF and is a type III transmembrane protein containing a single extracellular cysteine-rich domain. It is thought that this receptor is the principal receptor required for BAFF-mediated mature B-cell survival. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

About APC
Allophycocyanin (APC) is a fluorescent protein derived from cyanobacteria and red algae and a potent donor fluorophore to create tandem dyes that can be excited off the 633-640 nm laser. APC has an excitation peak at 650 nm and a emission peak at 660 nm.
