Description
Source: Escherichia Coli.Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.BCA-1 is a CXC chemokine that is highly expressed in thesecondary lymphoid organs, such as follicles of the spleen, lymph nodes, and Peyer's patches. CXCL13 promotes the migration of B lymphocytes (compared to T cells and macrophages), by stimulating calcium influx into, and chemotaxis of, cells expressing Burkitt's lymphoma receptor 1 (BLR1) . BCA1 therefore function in the homing of B lymphocytes to follicles. Human BCA-1 shares a 64% amino acid sequence similarity with the mouse protein and 23 - 34% amino acid sequence identity with other known CXC chemokines. Recombinant or chemically synthesized BCA1 is a potent chemoattractant for B lymphocytes but not T lymphocytes, monocytes or neutrophils. BLR1, a G protein-coupled receptor originally isolated from Burkittâ€TMs lymphoma cells, has now been shown to be the specific receptor for BCA1. Among cells of the hematopoietic lineages, the expression of BLR-1, now designated CXCR-5, is restricted to B lymphocytes and a subpopulation of T helper memory cells.CXCL13 Mouse Recombinant (22-109) produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 88 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 10kDa.The BCA-1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Product Name Alternative
C-X-C motif chemokine 13, B lymphocyte chemoattractant, CXC chemokine BLC, Small-inducible cytokine B13, Cxcl13, Blc, Scyb13.
Applications
Functional Assay
Purification
Greater than 97.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Components
The BCA1 protein was lyophilized from a 0.2μm filtered solution in Acetonitrile and TFA.It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized CXCL13 in sterile 18M Omega -cm H2O not less than 100μg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Storage Conditions
Lyophilized BCA1 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution BCA1 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) .Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Applications Notes
The ED50, as measured by its ability to chemoattract human CXCR5-transfected mouse BaF3 cells, is less than 2μg/ml.
