Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type 5 (ACP5) plays a crucial role in dephosphorylating osteopontin and bone sialoprotein. This iron-containing glycoprotein catalyzes the conversion of orthophosphoric monoester into alcohol and orthophosphate. Increased ACP5 expression is observed in certain disease states, including Gaucher disease, Hodgkin disease, hairy cell leukemia, B-cell leukemia, and T-cell leukemia. As the most basic acid phosphatase, ACP5 is uniquely uninhibited by L(+)-tartrate.
The ACP5 protein solution is provided at a concentration of 0.5mg/ml in Phosphate Buffered Saline (pH 7.4) containing 10% glycerol.
The purity of this product is greater than 90.0% as assessed by SDS-PAGE.
The specific activity of this product exceeds 10,000 units/mg. Specific activity is defined as the amount of enzyme required to hydrolyze 1.0 nanomole of p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP) per minute at a pH of 5.0 and a temperature of 37°C.

ACP5 is an iron-containing glycoprotein that is unique among acid phosphatases due to its resistance to inhibition by L(+)-tartrate . The enzyme’s structure includes a signal peptide (amino acids 1 to 21) and a mature chain (amino acids 22 to 325) . It plays a crucial role in the dephosphorylation of osteopontin and bone sialoprotein, which are important for bone metabolism .
Recombinant human ACP5 is produced using a mouse myeloma cell line (NS0-derived) and is typically tagged with a C-terminal 6-His tag for purification purposes . The recombinant protein is highly purified, with a purity greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE . It is used in various research applications, including enzyme activity assays and studies on bone metabolism.
