Targeting strategy
-
Gene targeting strategy for B-hBAFF mice.
The exons 1-7 of mouse Tnfsf13b gene that encode the extracellular domain were replaced by human TNFSF13B exons 1-6 in B-hBAFF mice.

Protein expression analysis
-
Strain specific BAFF expression analysis in wild type (WT) mice and B-hBAFF mice by ELISA.
Serum were collected from WT mice (+/+) and heterozygous B-hBAFF mice (H/+), and analyzed by ELISA with species-specific BAFF ELISA kit. Mouse BAFF was detectable in WT mice (+/+) and heterozygous B-hBAFF mice (H/+). Human BAFF was exclusively detectable in heterozygous B-hBAFF mice (H/+). ND: not detectable.
