APRIL is a cytokine that belongs to the TNF superfamily and binds to TACI and BCMA. It is implicated in the regulation of tumor cell growth, is involved in monocyte/macrophage-mediated immunological processes and functions as an important survival factor for plasmablasts and bone marrow plasma cells. APRIL is a high activity construct in which two trimeric APRIL ligands are artificially linked via the collagen domain of ACRP30. This construct very effectively stimulates proliferation B cell. A basic amino acid sequence (QKQKKQ) close to the NH2 terminus of APRIL is required for binding to negatively charged sulfated glycosaminoglycan side chains of proteoglycans. Proteoglycans mediate binding of APRIL to tumor cells as well as primary lymphoid cells. Biological Activity: Stimulates B cell proliferation. Sequence: The extracellular domain of mouse APRIL (aa 98-232) is fused at the N-terminus to mouse ACRP30headless (aa 18-110) and a FLAG-tag. Storage and Stability: Short-term Storage: +4C Long-term Storage: -20C Stable for at least 6 months after receipt when stored at -20C.
