  1. Dilute rhCD157 to 5 µg/mL in Assay Buffer.
  2. Dilute Substrate to 200 µM in Assay Buffer.
  3. Load into a black well plate 50 µL of 5 µg/mL rhCD157, and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 200 µM Substrate. Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 µL Assay Buffer and 50 µL Substrate.
  4. Incubate for 60 minutes at room temperature.
  5. Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 300 nm and 410 nm (top read), respectively, in endpoint mode.
  6. Calculate specific activity:

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

  *Adjusted for Substrate Blank
  **Derived using calibration standard cyclic GDP ribose.

  Per Well:
  • rhCD157: 0.25 µg
  • Substrate: 100 µM

Background

CD157, also known as bone marrow stromal cell antigen 1 (BST-1), is a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol anchored membrane protein that belongs to the CD38 family (1). CD157 was discovered in a bone marrow stromal cell line where it facilitates pre-B-cell growth (2, 3). Along with CD38, CD157 is a bifunctional ectoenzyme that exhibits both ADP-ribosyl cyclase and cyclic ADP ribose hydrolase activities (2). It may play a role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) due to its enhanced expression in RA‑derived bone marrow stromal cell lines (3). CD157 has been predicted to function as a cell surface receptor and an immunoregulatory molecule (4).
