Related Product Information for
APRIL recombinant protein
APRIL (a proliferation inducing ligand), also known as TNFSF13, TALL2, and TRDL1, is a member of the TNF ligand superfamily. It is synthesized as a 32 kDa type II transmembrane protein which is cleaved by furin in the Golgi to release a 17 kDa soluble molecule. Secreted APRIL consists almost entirely of a single TNF homology domain. Little or no transmembrane APRIL is expressed on the cell surface. Alternate splicing generates isoforms with short deletions at the Nor C-terminus. Both APRIL and the closely related protein BAFF signal through the TNF superfamily receptors TACI and BCMA to promote cellular proliferation and protect from apoptosis. APRIL can form bioactive heterotrimers with BAFF. A bioactive cell surface-expressed protein known as TWEPRIL consists of the intracellular domain, transmembrane segment, and stalk region of TWEAK fused to the TNF homology domain of APRIL. Human APRIL shares 85% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat APRIL.

UniProt Comments for APRIL
Function: Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF13B/TACI and to TNFRSF17/BCMA. Plays a role in the regulation of tumor cell growth. May be involved in monocyte/macrophage-mediated immunological processes. Ref.4
Subunit structure: Homotrimer
Potential.
Subcellular location: Secreted
By similarity.
Post-translational modification: The soluble form derives from the membrane form by proteolytic processing.
Miscellaneous: Transgenic mice develop lymphoid tumors that originate from expansion of the peritoneal B-1 B-cell population. Aging transgenic mice develop progressive hyperplasia in mesenteric lymph nodes and Peyer patches, disorganization of affected lymphoid tissues, mucosal and capsular infiltration, and eventual tumor cell infiltration into non-lymphoid tissues such as kidney and liver (Ref.4).
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family.
