Background: 5'-Nucleotidase/CD73

CD73, known as ecto-5'-Nucleotidase, converts extracellular nucleoside 5' monophosphates to nucleosides, with AMP as its preferred substrate (1). CD73 is a zinc-dependent, 70 kDa homodimeric enzyme bound to the cell membrane through a glycosyl phophatidylinositol (GPI) anchor. It is composed of an N-terminal domain containing metal binding sites linked via small hinge region to a C-terminal domain containing the substrate binding site and dimerization interface (2). It is expressed by most cell types (3) and is widely expressed in tumor cell lines as well as upregulated in cancerous tissues (4, 5). CD73 is a key enzyme responsible for a rate-limiting step in the generation of extracellular adenosine. Adenosine is a molecule that signals through activation of purinergic receptors and results in an immunosuppressive role in the tumor microenvironment (4, 6). CD73 has been implicated in many pathological processes including immunomodulation and inflammation (7, 8) tumor growth and metastasis (9-13) making CD73 a potential drug target in cancer. Targeting CD73 inhibition has resulted in numerous reports of favorable antitumor effects (4, 5, 12). Consequently, therapeutic approaches have been tested using knockdown, gene silencing and anti-CD73 therapies (11, 14) as well as small molecule inhibitors (14, 15).

Protocols

View specific protocols for Recombinant Human 5'-Nucleotidase/CD73 Fc Protein, CF (11415-EN):

Materials
  • Assay Buffer: 25 mM Tris, 5 mM MgCl2, pH 7.5
  • Recombinant Human 5'‑Nucleotidase/CD73 Fc Chimera (rhCD73/mFc) (Catalog # 11415-EN)
  • Substrate: Adenosine monophosphate (AMP), 5 mM stock in deionized water
  • Malachite Green Phosphate Detection Kit  (Catalog # DY996)
  • 96-well Clear Plate (Catalog # DY990)
  • Plate Reader with Absorbance Read Capability
  1. Prepare a standard curve from the 1 M Phosphate Standard by adding 10 µL of the 1 M Phosphate Standard to 990 µL of Assay Buffer for a 10 mM stock. Continue by adding 10 µL of the 10 mM Phosphate stock to 990 µL of Assay Buffer for a 100 µM stock (this is the first dilution to use as a standard).
  2. Perform six additional one-half serial dilutions of the 100 µM Phosphate stock using Assay Buffer. The standard curve has a range of 0.078 to 5 nmol per well.
  3. Dilute rhCD73/mFc to 0.16 µg/mL in Assay Buffer.
  4. Dilute AMP to 200 µM in Assay Buffer.
  5. Load 50 µL of each dilution of the standard curve into a plate. Include a curve blank containing 50 μL of Assay Buffer.
  6. Load 25 µL of 0.16 µg/mL rhCD73/mFc into empty wells of the same plate as the curve. Include a Control containing 25 μL of Assay Buffer.
  7. Start the reactions by adding 25 µL of 200 µM AMP to all wells, excluding the standard curve and curve blank.  
  8. Seal plate and incubate at 37 °C for 20 minutes.
  9. Add 30 µL of the Malachite Green Reagent A to all wells used, including standard curve. Mix briefly.
  10. Add 100 µL of deionized water to all wells used, including standard curve. Mix briefly.
  11. Add 30 µL of the Malachite Green Reagent B to all wells used, including standard curve. Mix briefly.
  12. Seal plate and incubate at room temperature for 20 minutes.
  13. Read plate at 620 nm (absorbance) in endpoint mode.
  14. Calculate specific activity:

     Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) =

Phosphate released* (nmol) x (1000 pmol/nmol)
Incubation time (min) x amount of enzyme (µg)

    

*Derived from the phosphate standard curve using linear or 4-parameter fitting and adjusted for Control.
