BST1

INTRODUCTION
BST1 (Bone Marrow Stromal Cell Antigen 1), is a GPI (glycosylphosphatidylinositol) anchored membrane protein which is part of the CD38 family. BST1 was initially recognized as a bone marrow stromal cell molecule. BST1 is an ectoenzyme sharing more than a few features with ADP-ribosyl cyclase CD38. BST1 together with CD38, exhibit both DP-ribosyl cyclase and cyclinc ADP ribose hydrolase activities. BST1 participates in rheumatoid arthritis due to its enhanced expression in RA-derived bone marrow stromal cell lines. Moreover, BST1 is expressed by cells of the myeloid lineage and could perform as a receptor with a signal transduction capability.


DESCRIPTION
BST1 produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 267 amino acids (33-293a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 30.5kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 40-57kDa).
BST1 is expressed with a 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
