Western blot analysis of BAFF (human), mAb (Buffy-1) (Prod. No. ALX-804-128): Lane 1: MW marker; Lane 2: BAFF (soluble) (human), (recombinant) (Prod. No. ALX-522-025).
Schematic structure of human soluble BAFF (rec.) (aa 83-285). Recognizes the stalk region present in the membrane-bound form of hBAFF.
Membrane-bound human BAFF detected by MAb to BAFF (human) (Buffy-1) (Prod. No.
ALX-804-128). Left panel: ICC; Right panel: phase contrast. Lower panel: 293-wt control."
Flow cytometric profile of 293 cells stably transfected with a BAFF-expression plasmid (1). Control (2) are mock transfected 293 cells. Optimal concentration range is 0.5-5 µg/ml.
Method: 293T cells (5 x 10
5) expressing surface BAFF vector or Mock transfected, were incubated on ice for 30 min. in 50µl FACS buffer (PBS, 5% fetal calf serum, 0.02% azide) containing 4µg/ml of MAb to BAFF (human) (Buffy-1). After washing in FACS buffer, FITC-conjugated antibody to rat IgG(
ALX-211-051) was added and cells were analyzed by flow cytometry."
