Background Information


CD269, also known as B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), is a 27 kD single-pass transmembrane protein that contains one TNFR-Cys repeat in its extracellular domain. This protein is a critical factor for the long-term survival and maintenance of plasma cells and plays an essential role in B-cell maturation. CD269 is expressed by plasmablasts, plasma cells, and germinal center B cells, and it is primarily involved in regulating humoral immunity. The ligands for CD269 include BAFF (B-cell activating factor) and APRIL (A proliferation-inducing ligand). These ligands bind to CD269, initiating a signaling cascade that supports B-cell survival and plasma cell function. Additionally, the cytoplasmic domain of CD269 interacts with several members of the TRAF (tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor) family, which are important for transducing survival and proliferation signals within the cell. Due to its essential role in immune response regulation, CD269 is a key player in the development and functioning of plasma cells.
