Catalyzes the hydrolysis of nucleotide monophosphates, releasing inorganic phosphate and the corresponding nucleoside (PubMed:1770988). AMP is the preferred substrate but can also hydrolyze CMP and GMP (PubMed:1770988). Shows a preference for ribonucleotide monophosphates over their equivalent deoxyribose forms (By similarity). Other substrates include IMP, UMP, dAMP, dCMP, dTMP, NAD and NMN (By similarity).

Rat CD73 ELISA Kit (ab253209) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of CD73 protein in tissue extracts and cell culture extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Rat CD73 with 36.54 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips
A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (Pre-coated 384 well Microplate SimpleStep ELISA® ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.
CD73 is an enzyme involved in the hydrolysis of extracellular nucleotides. It is a marker of lymphocyte differentiation. Mutations in CD73 can result in immunodeficiency, and CD73 variants in humans is associated with adult-onset calcification of joints and arteries.

CD73 also known as ecto-5'-nucleotidase is an enzyme that functions at the cellular level. The CD73 protein hydrolyzes extracellular nucleotides into nucleosides by removing phosphate groups. It is a 70 kDa glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored molecule found on the surface of various cell types including endothelial cells lymphocytes and epithelial cells. Its presence is noted in a wide range of tissues across the human body highlighting its versatile role in cellular communication and metabolism.
CD73 participates in the regulation of purinergic signaling through adenosine production. It acts in cooperation with other cell surface enzymes such as CD39 forming a functional complex that handles ATP breakdown to adenosine. This enzymatic activity modulates immune responses tissue protection and inflammation control. In addition to immune-related functions CD73 supports the maintenance of vascular integrity and proper cellular adhesion which is important in different physiological and pathological contexts.
CD73 plays an important part in the adenosinergic pathway governing the conversion of AMP into adenosine. This activity impacts the signaling and function of the adenosine receptors on immune and non-immune cells. Another important pathway is the angiogenesis process where CD73 contributes by affecting endothelial cell migration and blood vessel development. Relationships with key proteins such as adenosine A2 receptors help facilitate these critical pathway activities.
CD73's involvement with immunosuppression and tumor progression becomes significant. Elevated levels of CD73 are frequently observed in some cancers where it aids in creating a favorable tumor microenvironment through increased adenosine production. This situation assists tumor cells in evading immune detection. Additionally CD73 is linked to autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis where it contributes to modulated lymphocyte activity. Connections with proteins such as TGF-beta further illustrate its role in disease-related pathways creating potential targets for therapeutic interventions through the use of anti-CD73 antibodies.

Example of rat CD73 standard curve in 1X Cell Extraction Buffer PTR.
The CD73 standard curve was prepared as described in Section 10. Raw data values are shown in the table. Background-subtracted data values (mean +/- SD) are graphed.
Interpolated concentrations of native CD73 in rat C6 and liver homogenate extract samples based on 250 μg/mL and 1,000 μg/mL extract loads respectively.
The concentrations of CD73 were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the CD73 standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean CD73 concentration was determined to be 1,063 pg/mL in C6 cell extract and 1,706 pg/mL in liver homogenate extract.
