Description
B cell-attracting chemokine 1 (BCA-1), also known as CXCL13, is expressed at high levels in lymphoid tissues, such as the spleen, lymph nodes, and Peyer's patches. BCA-1 activates signaling through the receptor Burkitt lymphoma receptor 1 (BLR1) to chemoattract B cells.
Activity Assay
Human BCA-1 is fully biologically active when compared to standards. The activity can be determined by its ability to chemoattract BaF3 cells transfected with CXCR5 and it is typically 5-20 ng/ml. This corresponds to the specific activity of 6.7 x 104 units/mg.
