human ... TNFRSF11A(8792)

Biochem/physiol Actions

The biological functions mediated through RANK include activation of NF-κB and c-jun N-terminal kinases, enhancement of T cell growth and dentritic cell function, induction of osteoclastogenesis, and lymph node genesis. Soluble RANK is able to block TRANCE (TNF-related activation-induced cytokines)-induced biological activity.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline

Analysis Note

The biological activity is measured by its ability to inhibit TRANCE-induced osteoclast differentiation in mouse splenocytes.

Other Notes

The DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain of human RANK is fused to the signal peptide of CD33 at the amino-terminus and also fused the carboxy-terminal 6X histidine-tagged Fc region of human IgG1, via a polypeptide linker.

Osteoclast differentiation factor (ODF) is a ligand for osteoclastogenesis-inhibitory factor/osteoprotegerin (OCIF/OPG), and mediates an essential signal for osteoclastogenesis. Soluble-form ODF binds directly to osteoclast progenitors, suggesting the presence of a membrane-bound receptor for ODF (ODFR) on the cells. To understand

Dendritic cells are rare haematopoietic cells that reside in a number of organs and tissues. By capturing, processing and presenting antigens to T cells, dendritic cells are essential for immune surveillance and the regulation of specific immunity. Several members of
