Anti-ADK Antibody Picoband® Fluoro550 Conjugated

This gene is an enzyme which catalyzes the transfer of the gamma-phosphate from ATP to adenosine, thereby serving as a regulator of concentrations of both extracellular adenosine and intracellular adenine nucleotides. Adenosine has widespread effects on the cardiovascular, nervous, respiratory, and immune systems and inhibitors of the enzyme could play an important pharmacological role in increasing intravascular adenosine concentrations and acting as anti-inflammatory agents. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

E. coli-derived human ADK recombinant protein (Position: K165-T351) . Human ADK shares 88.8% and 88.2% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat ADK, respectively.
