The AD2 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with human CD73 (ecto-5'-nucleotidase), a 70 kDA glycosyl phosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored glycoprotein.
Purification
The monoclonal antibody was purified utilizing affinity chromatography and unreacted dye was removed from the product.
The AD2 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with human CD73 (ecto-5'-nucleotidase), a 70 kDA glycosyl phosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored glycoprotein. CD73 catalyzes the dephosphorylation of adenosine monophosphate (AMP) to adenosine and is expressed on subsets of B, T, dendritic, endothelial, and mesenchymal stem cells. It is also involved in the adhesion of lymphocytes to endothelium and T cell activation.
