Description

Introduction
Osteoprotegerin acts as decoy receptor for rankl and thereby neutralizes its function in osteoclastogenesis. OPG inhibits the activation of osteoclasts and promotes osteoclast apoptosis in vitro. Bone homeostasis seems to depend on the local rankl/opg ratio. Osteoprotegerin may also play a role in preventing arterial calcification. May act as decoy receptor for trail and protect against apoptosis. Trail binding blocks the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis.

BP000227-CYT-266: Recombinant Human Osteoprotegerin/Fc Chimera

Source: Pichia Pastoris-derived.
Contains 412 amino acid residues, including 180 residues from mature OPG (a.a 22-201) and 232 residues from the Fc protein of human IgG1, and has a calculated molecular mass of 46.5 kDa.
Determined by its ability to neutralize the stimulation of U937 cells treated with 10 ug/ml of soluble RANKL (sRANKL) corresponding to a Specific Activity of 100,000 IU/mg.
Purity > 90%, by SDS-PAGE and RP-HPLC.
Formulation: Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered concentrated (0.5 ug/ml) solution in PBS, pH= 7.4.
Reconstitution: It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Osteoprotegerin in sterile 18 M?-cm H2O not less than 100 ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
