Background: CD38

CD38, also known as ADP-ribosyl cyclase, is a Type II integral membrane protein. The enzyme is able to transform NAD(P)+ into three different products with calcium mobilizing ability, cyclic ADP-ribose, NAADP+, and ADP-ribose (1). CD38 is expressed in B and T lymphocytes, osteoclasts, and in cardiac, pancreatic, liver and kidney cells (2, 3). Through its production of cyclic ADP-ribose, CD38 modulates calcium-mediated signal transduction in many types of cells, including neutrophils and pancreatic beta  cells (4, 5).

Protocols

View specific protocols for Recombinant Human CD38 Protein, CF (2404-AC):

Materials
  • Assay Buffer: 50 mM MES, pH 6.5
  • Recombinant Human CD38 (rhCD38) (Catalog # 2404-AC)
  • Substrate: NGD+ (Sigma, Catalog # N-5131), 10 mM stock in deionized water
  • F16 Black Maxisorp Plate (Nunc, Catalog # 475515)
  • Fluorescent Plate Reader (Model: SpectraMax Gemini EM by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
  1. Dilute rhCD38 to 2 ng/µL in Assay Buffer.
  2. Dilute Substrate to 200 µM in Assay Buffer.
  3. Load in plate, 50 µL of 2 ng/µL rhCD38, and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 200 µM Substrate. Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 µL Assay Buffer and 50 µL of 200 µM Substrate.
  4. Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 300 nm and 410 nm (top read), respectively in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
  5. Calculate specific activity:

     Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) =

Adjusted Vmax* (RFU/min) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/RFU)
amount of enzyme (µg)

     *Adjusted for Substrate Blank
     **Derived using calibration standard cyclic GDP ribose (cGDPR).

Per Well:
  • rhCD38: 0.1 µg
  • Substrate: 100 µM
