Target

  • Function

    Receptor for TNFSF11/RANKL/TRANCE/OPGL; essential for RANKL-mediated osteoclastogenesis. Involved in the regulation of interactions between T-cells and dendritic cells.
  • Tissue specificity

    Ubiquitous expression with high levels in skeletal muscle, thymus, liver, colon, small intestine and adrenal gland.
  • Involvement in disease

    Defects in TNFRSF11A are the cause of familial expansile osteolysis (FEO) [MIM:174810]. FEO is a rare autosomal dominant bone disorder characterized by focal areas of increased bone remodeling. The osteolytic lesions develop usually in the long bones during early adulthood. FEO is often associated with early onset deafness and loss of dentition.
    Defects in TNFRSF11A are a cause of Paget disease of bone type 2 (PDB2) [MIM:602080]; also known as familial Paget disease of bone. PDB2 is a bone-remodeling disorder with clinical similarities to FEO. Unlike FEO, however, affected individuals have involvement of the axial skeleton with lesions in the spine, pelvis and skull.
    Defects in TNFRSF11A are the cause of osteopetrosis autosomal recessive type 7 (OPTB7) [MIM:612301]; also called osteoclast-poor osteopetrosis with hypogammaglobulinemia. Osteopetrosis is a rare genetic disease characterized by abnormally dense bone, due to defective resorption of immature bone. The disorder occurs in two forms: a severe autosomal recessive form occurring in utero, infancy, or childhood, and a benign autosomal dominant form occurring in adolescence or adulthood. OPTB7 is characterized by paucity of osteoclasts, suggesting a molecular defect in osteoclast development. OPTB7 is associated with hypogammaglobulinemia.
  • Sequence similarities

    Contains 4 TNFR-Cys repeats.
  • Cellular localization

    Membrane.

      IHC image of ab13918 staining in human t cell lymphoma formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica BondTM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab13918, 5µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

      For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

    Question

    What I get that you are suggesting is that I test this ab22106 antibody using a Western blot and it might work but what I need is an antibody that works for IHC. What is the homology % with the ab13918?

    Asked on Mar 16 2012

    Answer

    Thank you for your response.

    The identities of ab13918 with canine were 81%, with 89% positives and some gaps. This is generally the absolute limit for what we consider to be effective. I chose to recommend ab22106 because it was created with a shorter immunogen which shared similar identies. However the differences between the canine and immunogen are at the very end residues whereas the the differences with ab13918 are scattered throughout.

    I hope that this information is helpful. Please let me know if you have any questions or there are other ways that Abcam may help you meet your research goals.

    Answer

    Thank you for your reply. I am pleased to provide the following information: We have two RANK antibodies tested flow cytometry, human and mouse (not IHC or rat): ab45092 RANK antibody [9A725] (Phycoerythrin) Mouse monoclonal Tested applications: Flow Cyt Reacts with: Human, Mouse  Click here (or use the following: https://www.abcam.com/RANK-antibody-9A725-PE-ab45092.html). ab13918 RANK antibody [64C1385] Mouse monoclonal Applications: Flow Cyt, IP, WB Reacts with: Human, Mouse  Click here (or use the following: https://www.abcam.com/RANK-antibody-64C1385-ab13918.html).

I am sorry to confirm we have no RANK antibodies tested in rat. Regrettably I am not able to find the correct rat sequence on the protein database sites, and so am not able to check the alignments with rat.  If you have access to the rat sequence, I can suggest to try alignment to the immunogen for these antibodies. We recommend alignment should be over 85% to predict that an antibody will detect in a different species. I am sorry we also do not have an antibody tested and guaranteed in both IHC and flow cytometry. If you would like to test one of the antibodies in one of these untested applications, we would be able to provide a testing discount offer. Please let me know if you are interested, and I will be pleased to forward the details. This also applies to the rat species. If the alignment is over 70% , we would be able to provide a testing discount for you to try in rat. I am sorry we do not have an antibody that is tested to meet all your requirements on this occasion, but I hope these ones will still be of interest to you.  If you have any further questions, or are interested in the testing discount, please do not hesitate to contact me.

    Question

    Here's the responses to your questions: *How much protein did you load? *20, 40, and 60ug protien *Did you use reducing conditions? *I don't know... *How were your samples prepared?* RAW cells lysed in RIPA buffer (with PMSF, aprotinin and NaOthovanadate), frozen, thawed and protein quantified using BioRad DC Protien assay, 20ug protien added 1:3 with sample buffer (with 5% beta-mercaptoethanol), boiled 10 minutes, cooled to room temp and loaded into the gel. GAPDH antibody was used as loading control for membrane blotting, using the same secondary antibody conditions etc. *What did you block with? *BSA *Is the secondary antibody working with other primaries? *Yes *Did you check that the protein transferred properly to the membrane? *Yes; membrane was stained with ponceau S after transfer. *Also, what was the purchase order number or Abcam reference number that was used when you ordered this antibody?* PO: 51474 / ref: 3vapc51471

    Asked on Oct 25 2005

    Answer

    Thank you for your email and patience. I enquired with the originator of this antibody and evidently RANK is a tricky protein to detect and depending upon how the RAW cells were cultured, you may or may not see a signal. However, I would expect that with a dilution as high as 1:100 and incubation overnight at 4C (which you said that you tried) that you would see something. There have not been any problems with this lot reported, but I can offer to send a free of charge replacement vial from a newer batch. Alternatively, I can offer a refund or credit note. Please let me know how you would like to proceed.

    Question

    We ordered your RANK antibody ab13918 back in July, and after alloquoting and freezing it, hadn't gotten around to using it until this past month. I've been trying to do Western analysis of RANK expression from RAW cell lysates, and have not gotten any expression with this antibody. I have tried concentrations from 1:100 to 1:1000 (1:500 = 2 ug / ml), have tried incubation times ranging from 1hr at room temp to overnight at 4 degrees (also tried 1 hr room temp, overnight 4 deg, followed by an additional hour at room temp). I have also tried both HRP- and Cy5- conjugated secondaries, at various concentrations. I am now extremely frustrated with this antibody and am considering purchasing another RANK antibody from another source. Can you offer any suggestions as to how to remedy this problem?

    Answer

    Thank you for your enquiry and I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing difficulty with ab13918 in Western blotting. I do need a few more details in order to trouble-shoot this: How much protein did you load? Did you use reducing conditions? How were your samples prepared? What did you block with? Is the secondary antibody working with other primaries? Did you check that the protein transferred properly to the membrane? Also, what was the purchase order number or Abcam reference number that was used when you ordered this antibody? Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you.
