		Technical Data
B0003-68Y2	BAFF Receptor (BAFFR, BAFF-R, B-cell-activating Factor Receptor, BLyS Receptor 3, BR3, BROMIX, CD268, CVID4, MGC138235, Prolixin, Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Superfamily Member 13C, TNFRSF13C) (Biotin)

Description:
Human CD268 (BAFFR, BAFF receptor) is a type I TNF superfamily receptor member #13c. It is highly specific for CD257 (BAFF), which itself does bind to other receptors TACI, and BCMA. CD268 expressed on B cells and its ligation by CD257 (BAFF) regulates maturation (1).

Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA and Flow Cytometry. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
