Recombinant Human Calcium Activated Nucleotidase 1

Calcium-activated nucleotidase 1 (CANT1) is a member of the apyrase family. The CANT1 protein is calcium-dependent nucleotidase with a preference for UDP. The order of activity with different substrates is as follows: UDP GDP UTP GTP. Moreover, CANT1 has a very low activity towards ADP and an even lower activity towards ATP. As well as it doesnt hydrolyze AMP and GMP. CANT1s specific function is yet unknown, nevertheless its substrates are involved in several key signaling functions, including Ca2+ release, through activation of pyrimidinergic signaling. Mutations in the CANT1 gene are linked with Desbuquois dysplasia with hand anomalies.
