ADK, aa22-362 (Adenosine Kinase, AK, Adenosine 5'-phosphotransferase)

Adenosine kinase, also known as ADK is an abundant enzyme in mammalian tissues that catalyzes the transfer of the gamma-phosphate from ATP to adenosine, thereby serving as a regulator of concentrations of both extracellular adenosine and intracellular adenine nucleotides. Adenosine kinase has widespread effects on the cardiovascular, nervous, respiratory, and immune systems and inhibitors of the enzyme could play an important pharmacological role in increasing intravascular adenosine concentrations and acting as anti-inflammatory agents. Recombinant protein corresponding to aa22-362 from human ADK fused to a 6-His tag at the N-terminal expressed in E. coli (NP_006712).
