SDS-PAGE Purity of Apyrase from potatoes (Cat. No. A6237) was assessed on SDS-PAGE. Lanes 1. Apyrase treated with Endo H. 2. Apyrase without treatment.
A large number of plant and animal tissues contain
pyrophosphohydrolases commonly called apyrases.
These enzymes catalyze the hydrolysis of a broad
range of nucleoside tri- and di-phosphates.
ATP → ADP + Pi → AMP + 2 Pi

| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Apyrase hydrolyses the phosphoanhydride bonds of nucleoside tri- and di-phosphates in the presence of divalent cations. It has wide substrate specificity for nucleotides. This property of the enzyme makes it suitable for different biotechnical applications, including DNA sequencing and platelet-aggregation inhibition. |
| General description: | Apyrase, also known as ATP-diphosphohydrolase, is expressed in wide variety of plant and animal tissues. The commercially accessible apyrase enzyme is isolated from potato tubers. |
