Sandwich ELISA quantitative detection kit for Mouse RANK in cell culture supernates and serum. Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor kappa B (RANK), also known as TRANCE Receptor, is a type I membrane protein that is expressed on the surface of osteoclasts and is involved in their activation upon ligand binding. RANK is a recently described TNF receptor family member, and its ligand, RANKL, promote survival of dendritic cells and differentiation of osteoclasts. RANK contains 383 amino acids in its intracellular domain (residues 234-616), which contain three putative TRAF-binding domains (termed I, II, and III). RANK interacts with various TRAFs through distinct motifs and activates NF-kappaB via a novel TRAF6 interaction motif, which then activates NIK, thus leading to NF-kappaB activation, whereas RANK most likely activates JNK through a TRAF2-interacting region in RANK. Assay Range: 62.5pg/ml-4000pg/ml Sensitivity: < 2 pg/ml Crossreactivity: There is no detectable cross-reactivity with other relevant proteins.
