Description
NT5E (CD73; ecto-5'-nucleotidase) is a GPI-anchored ectoenzyme that catalyzes extracellular conversion of purine 5'-mononucleotides to nucleosides (preferred substrate AMP); described as a dimer of two identical ~70 kDa subunits and used as a marker of lymphocyte differentiation; page notes NT5 deficiency in immunodeficiency diseases and rare allelic variants linked to adult-onset calcification of joints and arteries (CALJA). Assay context: PicoKine® quantitative ELISA for human NT5E in cell culture supernatants, cell lysates, serum, and plasma (heparin/EDTA); sensitivity <10 pg/mL (listed as 10 pg/mL); assay range 156–10,000 pg/mL; CHO-expressed standard (W27–K547); sheep polyclonal capture/detection with avidin–biotin–peroxidase complex; no detectable cross-reactivity reported. Often contextualized in immune/inflammation panels with chemokine targets like CXCL10 (IP-10) or IL-8 (putative).
Storage & Handling
Store at 4°C for 6 months, at -20°C for 12 months. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles (Ships with gel ice, can store for up to 3 days in room temperature. Freeze upon receiving.)

Background of NT5E
5'-nucleotidase (5'-NT), also known as ecto-5'-nucleotidase or CD73 (Cluster of Differentiation 73), is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NT5E gene. Ecto-5-prime-nucleotidase catalyzes the conversion at neutral pH of purine 5-prime mononucleotides to nucleosides, the preferred substrate being AMP. The enzyme consists of a dimer of 2 identical 70-kD subunits bound by a glycosyl phosphatidyl inositol linkage to the external face of the plasma membrane. And the enzyme is used as a marker of lymphocyte differentiation. Consequently, a deficiency of NT5 occurs in a variety of immunodeficiency diseases. Other forms of 5-prime nucleotidase exist in the cytoplasm and lysosomes and can be distinguished from ecto-NT5 by their substrate affinities, requirement for divalent magnesium ion, activation by ATP, and inhibition by inorganic phosphate. Rareallelic variants are associated with a syndrome of adult-onset calcification of joints and arteries (CALJA) affecting the iliac, femoral, and tibial arteries reducing circulation in the legs and the joints of the hands and feet causing pain.

Question
Is the EK1422 recombinant CD73 supplied as the standard suitable for WB? Is it a full-length protein?

Asked: 2020-11-25
Answer
For the Human CD73/NT5E ELISA Kit PicoKine™ (EK1422), recombinant CD73 supplied as the standard contains BSA and is unsuitable for WB. The immunogen of the standard is W27-K547.
