SKU:: PME100100
Additional Names:: CD254;hRANKL2;ODF;OPGL;OPTB2;RANKL;sOdf;TNLG6B;TRANCE
Molecular Weight:: The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 48.4 kDa after removal of the signal peptide.The apparent molecular mass of hFc-TNFSF11 is approximately 55-70 kDa due to glycosylation.
Purity:: The purity of the protein is greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining.
Storage Conditions:: Store at -20[o]C to -80[o]C for 12 months in lyophilized form. After reconstitution; if not intended for use within a month; aliquot and store at -80[o]C (Avoid repeated freezing and thawing). Lyophilized proteins are shipped at ambient temperature.
Supplier:: DIMA Biotechnology Ltd
Formulation:: Lyophilized from sterile PBS; pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8% trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization. Please see Certificate of Analysis for specific instructions of reconstitution.
Target:: TNFSF11

Extra Details:: This gene encodes a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) cytokine family which is a ligand for osteoprotegerin and functions as a key factor for osteoclast differentiation and activation. This protein was shown to be a dentritic cell survival factor and is involved in the regulation of T cell-dependent immune response. T cell activation was reported to induce expression of this gene and lead to an increase of osteoclastogenesis and bone loss. This protein was shown to activate antiapoptotic kinase AKT/PKB through a signaling complex involving SRC kinase and tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor (TRAF) 6; which indicated this protein may have a role in the regulation of cell apoptosis. Targeted disruption of the related gene in mice led to severe osteopetrosis and a lack of osteoclasts. The deficient mice exhibited defects in early differentiation of T and B lymphocytes; and failed to form lobulo-alveolar mammary structures during pregnancy. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found. [provided by RefSeq; Jul 2008]
