Description

ACPP, also known as prostatic acid phosphatase, belongs to the histidine acid phosphatase family. It has phosphotyrosyl phosphatase activity. It is predominantly expressed in the prostate gland, and restricted to gladular and ductal epithelial cells, and mainly in the secreted form. It is also widely expressed in non-prostatic tissues, such as bladder, kidney, pancreas, lung, cervix, testis, and ovary, as a type I transmembrane protein with N-terminal phosphatase activity. A mutation at Trp206 reduces ACPP activity, causing its structural instability and increased binding to the L(+)-tartrate inhibitor. The expression of ACPP correlates with prostate cell proliferation. High levels of ACPP leads to slow cell growth. Though the level of ACPP in the circulation is increased in prostate cancer patients, its level and activity are reduced in prostate cancer cells. ACPP serves as a tumor suppressor. Reduced ACPP levels result in hyperphosphorylation of HER-2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor-2), activating downstream MAPK signaling, prostate cancer progression and androgen-independent growth. In addition, ACPP dephosphorylates ErbB-2, blocking downstream ERK1/2 and AKT signaling and tumorigenicity. Several studies indicate that ACPP is cleaved into amyloidogenic fragments, which greatly enhance XMRV (xenotropic murine leukemia virus-releated virus) infection in prostate cancer tissues and HIV infection.

Application

Bioassay

Application Notes

Human ACPP Activity Assay

  1. Dilute the recombinant human ACPP at 0.1 µg/mL in assay buffer.
  2. Dilute the substrate at 2 mM in assay buffer.
  3. In a plate, combine 50 µL of hACPP and 50 µL of 2 mM Substrate. Include a substrate blank containing 50 µL of assay buffer and 50 µL of 2 mM substrate.
  4. Incubate the reaction at room temperature for 5 minutes.
  5. Add 100 µL of 0.2 M NaOH to stop the reaction and develop the color.
  6. Read the absorbance in endpoint mode at 410 nm.
  7. Calculate the specific activity:

Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg)=  ((Adjusted Vmax* (OD/min) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/OD))                                                                                Incubation time (min) x amount of enzyme (µg)


*Adjusted for substrate blank
**Derived using calibration standard p-Nitrophenol (Sigma-Aldrich, Catalog No. 241326).

How does the activity of your recombinant proteins compare to competitors?

We quality control each and every lot of recombinant protein. Not only do we check its bioactivity, but we also compare it against other commercially available recombinant proteins. We make sure each recombinant protein’s activity is at least as good as or better than the competition’s. In order to provide you with the best possible product, we ensure that our testing process is rigorous and thorough. If you’re curious and eager to make the switch to BioLegend recombinants, contact your sales representative today!

What is the specific activity or ED50 of my recombinant protein?

The specific activity range of the protein is indicated on the product datasheets. Because the exact activity values on a per unit basis can largely fluctuate depending on a number of factors, including the nature of the assay, cell density, age of cells/passage number, culture media used, and end user technique, the specific activity is best defined as a range and we guarantee the specific activity of all our lots will be within the range indicated on the datasheet. Please note this only applies to recombinants labeled for use in bioassays. ELISA standard recombinant proteins are not recommended for bioassay usage as they are not tested for these applications.

Have your recombinants been tested for stability?

Our testing shows that the recombinant proteins are able to withstand room temperature for a week without losing activity. In addition the recombinant proteins were also found to withstand four cycles of freeze and thaw without losing activity.

Does specific activity of a recombinant protein vary between lots?

Specific activity will vary for each lot and for the type of experiment that is done to validate it, but all passed lots will have activity within the established ED50 range for the product and we guarantee that our products will have lot-to-lot consistency. Please conduct an experiment-specific validation to find the optimal ED50 for your system.

How do you convert activity as an ED50 in ng/ml to a specific activity in Units/mg?

Use formula Specific activity (Units/mg) = 10^6/ ED50 (ng/mL)
