Product Specs

Introduction

B-Cell Maturation Antigen, also known as TNFRSF17 or tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17, belongs to the TNF receptor protein family. This protein serves as a receptor for TNFSF13B/BLyS/BAFF and TNFSF13/APRIL, promoting B-cell survival. TNFRSF17 plays a critical role in regulating humoral immunity and is involved in activating NF-kappa-B and JNK signaling pathways.

Description

Recombinant human TNFRSF17 protein is produced in Baculovirus (Sf9 insect cells) as a single glycosylated polypeptide chain. It consists of 296 amino acids, including amino acids 1-54, and has a molecular mass of 33.1 kDa. TNFRSF17 is fused to a 242 amino acid hIgG-His-Tag at the C-terminus and is purified using proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Physical Appearance
Clear, colorless solution, sterile-filtered.
Formulation

The TNFRSF17 protein is supplied at a concentration of 0.5 mg/ml in a solution containing 10% glycerol and Phosphate-Buffered Saline (pH 7.4).

Stability

For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), the product can be stored at 4°C. For long-term storage, it is recommended to store the protein at -20°C. To further enhance stability during long-term storage, the addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is advisable. It's important to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to maintain protein integrity.

Purity

The purity of TNFRSF17 is determined to be greater than 95.0% by SDS-PAGE analysis.

Product Science Overview

Introduction

B-Cell Maturation Antigen (BCMA), also known as Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Superfamily Member 17 (TNFRSF17), is a protein encoded by the TNFRSF17 gene in humans . BCMA is a cell surface receptor that plays a crucial role in the regulation of B-cell development and immune response .

Structure and Function

BCMA is part of the TNF receptor protein family and is primarily expressed in mature B lymphocytes . It specifically binds to B-cell activating factor (BAFF) and a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL), which are essential for B-cell survival and proliferation . The interaction between BCMA and its ligands leads to the activation of NF-kappaB and MAPK8/JNK signaling pathways, promoting cell survival and immune response .

Recombinant Production in Sf9 Cells

The recombinant form of BCMA, produced in Sf9 cells (a cell line derived from the fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda), is a single glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 296 amino acids . This recombinant protein is fused to a 242 amino acid hIgG-His-Tag at the C-terminus and is purified using proprietary chromatographic techniques . The recombinant BCMA is used in various research applications, including studies on B-cell development, autoimmune diseases, and cancer .

Applications and Importance

BCMA is a critical target in the treatment of multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer. Elevated levels of soluble BCMA (sBCMA) are found in the serum of patients with multiple myeloma, making it a valuable biomarker for disease progression and treatment response . Additionally, BCMA-targeted therapies, such as CAR-T cell therapy and antibody-drug conjugates, have shown promising results in clinical trials for multiple myeloma .
