Bst1 (Bone marrowstromal cell antigen1,ADP-ribosyl cyclase 2,CD157) is anenzyme that in humans is encoded by theBST1gene.[5][6][7] CD157 is aparalog ofCD38, both of which are located onchromosome 4 (4p15) in humans.[8]
Bst1 is a stromal cell line-derived glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored molecule that facilitates pre-B-cell growth. The deduced amino acid sequence exhibits 33% similarity with CD38. BST1 expression is enhanced in bone marrow stromal cell lines derived from patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The polyclonal B-cell abnormalities in rheumatoid arthritis may be, at least in part, attributed to BST1 overexpression in the stromal cell population.[7]
CD157 and CD38 are both members of the ADP-ribosyl cyclase family of enzymes thatcatalyze the formation ofnicotinamide andadenosine diphosphate ribose (ADPR) orcyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) fromNAD+, although CD157 is a much weaker catalyst than CD38.[9][10][11] cADPR is required for regulation ofCa2+ in cells.[10] Only CD38 hydrolyzed cADPR to ADPR.[11] CD38 is widely expressed in tissues, whereas CD157 is primarily found in gut andlymphoid tissue.[11]
CD157 is highly expressed inacute myeloid leukemia, and is being evaluated as a diagnostic sign, as a treatment target, and as a means of monitoring treatment progress.[13]
BST1 andBST2 genes are unregulated by theNicotinamide (NAM) metabolism pathway.[14]
