Gene Information

human ... NT5E(4907)

General description

NT5E (5′-nucleotidase, ecto, CD73) is a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-linked plasma membrane glycoprotein encoding a protein, ecto-5′-nucleotidase (CD73), which acts as the major enzymatic source of extracellular adenosine. It is expressed in different types of cells and in different tissues.

Immunogen

5′-nucleotidase precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-NT5E antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

NT5E (5′-nucleotidase, ecto, CD73) plays an important role in the stabilization of tissue homeostasis and controlling of several pathophysiologic responses related to immunity, inflammation, pain, ischemia, tissue fibrosis, and cancer. It is involved in the generation of adenosine from degradation of AMP (adenosine monophosphate) in the extracellular environment. CD73 facilitates the conversion of intracellular AMP to adenosine, which further regulates various processes by activating one of four subtypes of G-protein-coupled receptors. Mutation in NT5E causes an adult-onset condition characterized by joint pain, calcification of joints and arteries (CALJA).

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Ecto-5'-nucleotidase (CD73), encoded by NT5E, is the major enzymatic source of extracellular adenosine. CD73 controls numerous pathophysiological responses and is a potential disease target, but its regulation is poorly understood. We examined NT5E regulation by alternative splicing.

To develop new diagnostic and therapeutic tools to specifically target pancreatic tumors, it is necessary to identify cell-surface proteins that may serve as potential tumor-specific targets. In this study we used an azido-labeled bioorthogonal chemical reporter to metabolically label N-linked

Evolution of tumor cell phenotypes promotes heterogeneity and therapy resistance. Here we found that induction of CD73, the enzyme that generates immunosuppressive adenosine, is linked to melanoma phenotype switching. Activating MAPK mutations and growth factors drove CD73 expression, which marked

Increasing evidence exists for the role of immunosuppressive adenosine in promoting tumor growth and spread in a number of cancer types, resulting in poor clinical outcomes. In this study, we assessed whether the CD73-adenosinergic pathway is active in melanoma patients
