Key Product Details

Species

Human, Mouse, Rat

Applications

Block/Neutralize, Functional Assay

Product Specifications

Specificity

The TRAF6 inhibitory peptide also contains a protein transduction (PTD) sequence (DRQIKIWFQNRRMKWKK) derived from antennapedia which renders the peptide cell permeable. The control peptide consists of only the PTD sequence.

Applications

Block/Neutralize (reported in scientific literature (PMID 24829345))
In vitro assay (reported in scientific literature (PMID 24829345))

Application Notes

Inhibition of RANKL mediated osteoclast differentiation.

Researchers can study the effect of TRAF6 inhibitor peptide using a variety of methods, such as EMSA, NF-kB/p65 ELISA,IkBa phosphorylation ELISA, osteoclast differentiation assay. The Osteoclast formation assay protocol is a guideline which may need to be optimized for different cell types.

Inhibitor Content

TRAF6 Inhibitor peptide: 2 x 1 mg (lyophilized) DRQIKIWFQNRRMKWKKRKIPTEDEY (TRAF6 binding sequence: RKIPTEDEY). Molecular weight: 3494. Antennapedia Control peptide: 2 x 1 mg (lyophilized) DRQIKIWFQNRRMKWKK. Molecular weight: 2361.

Scientific Data Images for TRAF-6 Inhibitor Peptide Set

TRAF6 Inhibitor Peptide Set [NBP2-26506] - The TRAF6 inhibitory peptide inhibits osteoclast ifferentiation: RAW264.7 cells were plated on 24-well plates and stimulated with RANKL and M-CSF and incubated in the presence of different concentrations of control peptide (PTD) or the TRAF6. The TRAF6 at the concentration above 30 uM suppressed osteoclast differentiation.

Formulation, Preparation, and Storage

Preparation Method

Preparation of 5 mM Stock Solutions
PBS* is added directly to the vials to prepare the stock solutions. Note: Bring the solution to room temperature and quick spin the tubes before opening the caps.

Background: TRAF-6

TRAF6 is an adapter protein that links RANK with downstream signaling molecules, and plays a key role in RANKL mediated osteoclast differentiation. RANK contains a novel TRAF6-binding motif (T6DP) through which it binds to TRAF6 upon activation by RANKL. The TRAF6 inhibitory peptide contains a sequence from the T6DP motif of mouse RANK. The peptide binds to RANK, blocking TRAF6 and RANK interaction and thereby inhibiting osteoclast differentiation.

The TRAF6 inhibitory peptide also contains a protein transduction (PTD) sequence (DRQIKIWFQNRRMKWKK) derived from antennapedia which renders the peptide cell permeable.The control peptide consists of only the PTD sequence
