Name : Human ENPP-2/Autotaxin Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human ENPP-2/Autotaxin Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the N-Terminus. It contains Asp49-Ile863.[Accession | NP_001035181]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 94.8 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 95-115 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Endotoxin Level :
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Purity :
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE> 95% as determined by HPLC

Formulation :
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Reconstitution :
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.

Storage and Stability :
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -80°C for 3-6 months after reconstitution. 2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Human ENPP-2 on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Human ENPP-2 is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC. Bioactivity Data Measured by its ability to cleave Bis (p-Nitrophenyl) Phosphate (BPNPP). The specific activity is > 10000 pmol/min/μg, as measured under the described conditions.

Background :
Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 2 (ENPP2) also known as Autotaxin, is a secreted lysophospholipase D, which hydrolyzes lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) into Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). ENPP2 is an essential protein for normal development and its altered expression is associated with various human diseases.

Synonyms :
PDNP2; ATX-X; NPP2; PD-IALPHA; ENPP-2; E-NPP 2; Autotaxin; LysoPLD; ATX
