Anti-RANK/TNFRSF11A Antibody Picoband® Fluoro647 Conjugated
Product Specifications
Background
Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor κ 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 also expressed on dendritic cells and facilitates immune signaling. It is found on the surface of stromal cells, osteoblasts, and T cells. By analysis of somatic cell and radiation hybrid panels, this gene is mapped to 18q22.1.
