Biolegend, 357506, APC anti-human CD269 (BCMA) Antibody, 100tests

CD269, also known as B cell maturation antigen (BCMA), is a 27 kD, single pass transmembrane protein with one TNFR-Cys repeat on its extracellular domain. CD269 is a B cell maturation factor, essential for the long-term survival of plasma cells. It is expressed by plasmablasts, plasma cells, and germinal center B cells. The ligands of CD269 are BAFF and APRIL, and its cytoplasmic domain binds several of the TRAF family members.
