Anti-PNP (Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase, Inosine Phosphorylase, NP)

Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase (PNP) catalyzes the phophorolysis of N-ribosidic bonds of purine nucleosides and deoxynucleosides. Physiological substrates of PNP include inosine, guanosine, and 2'-deoxyguanosine, but not adenosine. PNP is expressed in most tissues, with markedly greater expression in lymphoid tissues. Genetic deficiencies of PNP result in severely compromised T-lymphocyte function and neurologic dysfunction. PNP is used in assays for the measurement of inorganic phosphate. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1ug/ml, Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Stable for 12 months at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile PBS. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
