Receptor activator of NF-kB (RANK) is a recently cloned member of the TNFR superfamily with no significant homology to other members of this family.
RANK ligand (RANKL/TRANCE/ OPGL) binds to RANK on dendritic cells, upregulates the expression of anti-apoptotic protein BcL-XL suggesting a role in dendritic cell survival.
The cytoplasmic domain of RANK interacts with TRAF2, TRAF5 and TRAF6.
Overexpression of RANK activates NF-kB and c-Jun-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway.
Recent studies have shown that RANK interaction with TRAF6 activates NF-kB, whereas JNK activation is mediated through binding of RANK to TRAF2.
