Biological Activity

Description

RANKL/TNFSF11 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived RANKL/TNFSF11 protein, expressed by HEK293, with N-His tag.

Background

RANKL/TNFSF11 is a cytokine that binds to TNFRSF11B/OPG and TNFRSF11A/RANK. It acts as an osteoclast differentiation and activation factor, enhances the ability of dendritic cells to stimulate naive T-cell proliferation, and may be a key regulator of T-cell–dendritic cell interactions and T-cell-dependent immune responses. It also likely contributes to increased bone resorption in humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy. By activating multiple signaling pathways in osteoclast precursor cells—particularly through inducing prolonged intracellular Ca 2+ oscillations that activate NFATC1 (leading to its nuclear translocation and induction of osteoclast-specific gene transcription)—RANKL/TNFSF11 promotes osteoclastogenesis. During osteoclast differentiation, it also triggers TMEM64- and ATP2A2-dependent CREB1 activation and mitochondrial ROS generation, which are essential for proper osteoclast formation (By similarity).

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
