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 (1). 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 (2, 3). PNP is used in assays for the measurement of inorganic phosphate (4).
Source:Recombinant corresponding to aa1-289 from human PNP, fused with 6-His tag at C-terminal, expressed in E. coli.
