Human TNFRSF11A Protein, hFc Tag

TNFRSF11A

The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 46.2 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of TNFRSF11A-hFc is approximately 55-70 kDa due to glycosylation.

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]
