Ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase-1 also known as CD39 or NTPDase-1, ENTPD1 was originally described as a B lymphocyte cell surface marker, but it is also present on the surface of natural killer cells, T cells, and some endothelial cells. ENTPD1 hydrolyzes the beta- and gamma phosphate residues of nucleotides, preferring ATP as the substrate. Through its hydrolysis of extracellular nucleotides, ENTPD1 plays a role in the regulation of purinergic signaling. ENTPD1 is also involved in the processes of thromboregulation and vascular inflammation. The amino acid sequence of mouse ENTPD1 is 77% and 72% identical to that of human and dog.
Applications:
Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry, ELISA, Western Blot, and Immunoprecipitation. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Flow Cytometry: 25ug/ml
ELISA: 0.5-1.0ug/ml
Western Blot: 1-2ug/ml
Immunoprecipitation: 25ug/ml
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
Lyophilized powder may be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Reconstitute to nominal volume by adding sterile 40-50% glycerol and store at -20 degrees C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
