Principle of the Assay: RANK ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing an anti-RANK antibody and an RANK-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with RANK-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the RANK concentration since RANK from samples and RANK-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-RANK antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by RANK from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind RANK-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The RANK concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. This receptors can interact with various TRAF family proteins, through which this receptor induces the activation of NF-kappa B and MAPK8/JNK. This receptor and its ligand are important regulators of the interaction between T cells and dendritic cells. This receptor is also an essential mediator for osteoclast and lymph node development. Mutations at this locus have been associated with familial expansile osteolysis, autosomal recessive osteopetrosis, and Paget disease of bone. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this locus. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]
Uniprot Description
TNFRSF11A: Receptor for TNFSF11/RANKL/TRANCE/OPGL; essential for RANKL-mediated osteoclastogenesis. Involved in the regulation of interactions between T-cells and dendritic cells. Binds to the clefts between the subunits of the TNFSF11 ligand trimer to form a heterohexamer. Interacts with TRAF1, TRAF2, TRAF3, TRAF5 and TRAF6. Interacts (via cytoplasmic domain) with GAB2. Ubiquitous expression with high levels in skeletal muscle, thymus, liver, colon, small intestine and adrenal gland.

Product Notes
The Bovine RANK tnfrsf11a (Catalog #AAA7236119) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA7236119 ELISA Kit recognizes Bovine RANK. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "receptor activator of nuclear factor-kB (RANK), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
