Description:
B-cell activating factor (BAFF) is the tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 13B (TNFLSF13B), also known as B Lymphocyte Stimulator (BLyS) and TNF- and APOL-related leukocyte expressed ligand (TALL-1) and the Dendritic cell-derived TNF-like molecule (CD257 antigen; cluster of differentiation 257). BAFF is a 285-amino acid long peptide glycoprotein which undergoes glycosylation at residue 124. It is expressed as transmembrane protein on various cell types including monocytes, dendritic cells and bone marrow stromal cells. 
BAFF is a master regulator of peripheral B cell survival, and also acts in processes such as immunoglobulin isotype switch and B cell co-stimulation. Beside its major role in B cell biology, BAFF co-stimulates activated T cells. BAFF ELISA determines soluble human BAFF in serum and in cell culture supernatant.
