Description
TACI, a member of the TNF Receptor superfamily, is expressed in the small intestine, spleen, thymus, peripheral blood leukocytes, activated T cells, and resting B cells. TACI can bind to both APRIL and BAFF, stimulate the activation of transcription factors NF-κB and AP-1, and can mediate the calcineurin-dependent activation of NF-AT (nuclear-factor of activated T cells). TACI also plays a key role in the stimulation of B and T cell function. Soluble TACI inhibits APRIL-stimulated proliferation of primary B cells by blocking the binding of APRIL to the membrane-anchored TACI receptor. Recombinant Human TACI is a soluble 159 amino acid polypeptide (17.8 kDa) comprising the TNFR homologous, cysteine-rich extracellular domain of the TACI protein.

Biological Activity
|
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biological activity is determined by its ability to block human BAFF induced T2B cell survival using a concentration range of 1.0-3.0 µg/mL.
|
Endotoxin
|
< 1.0 EU per 1μg of the protein by the LAL method.
|
Formulation
|
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
|
Reconstitution
|
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1% BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20°C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
