Immunogen | Functions as a TRAF6 decoy by binding to the T6DP motif of RANK, thereby preventing binding of RANK to TRAF6. |
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. |
PreparationMethod | Preparation of 5 mM Stock SolutionsPBS* 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.TRAF6 Inhibitor Peptide: 1 mg of DRQIKIWFQNRRMKWKKRKIPTEDEYAdd 57.7 ul of PBS* to the vial to make a 5 mM stock solution. Mix by vortexing. Aliquot and store at -20C or -80C. Avoid repeated freeze thawing.Control Peptide: 1 mg of DRQIKIWFQNRRMKWKKAdd 84.8 ul PBS* to the vial. Mix by vortexing. Aliquot and store at 20C or -80C. Avoid repeated freeze thawing. *Recipe for 1X PBS:1. Dissolve the following in 800ml distilled H2O.- 8g of NaCl- 0.2g of KCl- 1.44g of Na2HPO4- 0.24g of KH2PO42. Adjust pH to 7.5 with HCl.3. Adjust volume to 1L with additional distilled H2O.4. Sterilize by autoclaving |
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. |
Gene | TRAF6 |
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. Use in In vitro assay and blocking / neutralizing reported in scientific literature (PMID 24829345) | |
