Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B Ligand (RANK Ligand) is a cell-bound marker related to the Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) family of proteins. RANK Ligand plays a critical role in bone metabolism and osteoclast differentiation. T cell expression of RANK Ligand promotes dendritic cell maturation.Activity Assay
Human RANK Ligand (Animal-Free) is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The activity is determined by the activity of RAW-Blue™ cells and it is typically less than 50 ng/ml. This corresponds to an expected specific activity of 2.0 x 104 units/mg.AA Sequence
