Recombinant human ENPP-2/Autotaxin protein
ENPP-2, also known as Autotaxin, belongs to the ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase (NPP) family. ENPP-2 is able to cleave the phosphodiester bond between the α and the β position of triphosphate nucleotides, acting as an ectonucleotide phosphodiesterase producing pyrophosphate , as most members of the ENPP family. It is unlike ENPP-1 and ENPP-3, has weak activity against nucleotides, but exhibits a lysophospholipase D activity which allows the formation of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and choline from lysophosphatidylcholine. Also, ENPP-2 and LPA are involved in numerous inflammatory-driven diseases such as asthma and arthritis. Recombinant human ENPP-2/Autotaxin, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in HEK293 and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
