Mouse
Recombinant Protein
This IgG fraction antibody was prepared from rabbit antiserum after repeated immunizations with recombinant truncated mouse RANKL protein (aa 143-316) produced in E.coli.
Anti-RANK L antibody is an IgG fraction antibody purified from monospecific antiserum by a multi-step process which includes delipidation, salt fractionation and ion exchange chromatography followed by extensive dialysis against the buffer stated above. This antibody is specific for mouse RANKL protein. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with RANKL from mouse sources based on 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Based on 97% homology, cross-reactivity with rat, 91% with Chinese hamster, 90% with Thirteen-lined ground squirrel; other sources has not been determined.
Application Details
WB
This purified antibody has been tested in western blotting and suitable for ELISA. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately 19-20 kDa in size corresponding to the mature mouse RANKL protein by western blotting in appropriate cell lysate or extract.

Anti-RANK L antibody is useful in studying the regulating NF-kB activation. Secreted cytokine RANKL (Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor kappa-B Ligand) is critically involved in osteoclastic differentiation and activation and in the regulation of specific immunity. RANKL exists as a homotrimer, is glycosylated, and occurs in 3 forms: cell-bound RANKL, which is expressed by osteoblast lineage cells, soluble RANKL (sRANKL), which is expressed by activated T lymphocytes, and a truncated ectodomain form derived from the cell-bound RANK Ligand, which is enzymatically processed by TACE (TNF-alpha converting enzyme (TACE; ADAM-17)). All three forms stimulate their specific receptor, RANK, which is located on osteoclastic and dendritic cells. RANKL binds to TNFRSF11B/OPG and to TNFRSF11A/RANK. RANKL augments the ability of dendritic cells to stimulate naive T-cell proliferation. It may be an important regulator of interactions between T-cells and dendritic cells and may play a role in the regulation of the T-cell-dependent immune response. Expression of RANKL is highest in the peripheral lymph nodes, weak in spleen, peripheral blood leukocytes, bone marrow, heart, placenta, skeletal muscle, stomach and thyroid and is up-regulated by T-cell receptor stimulation. RANKL is secreted in the soluble form.
