Editorial Reviews

Forty-one papers and three discussion sessions from the August 1996 workshop which premiered the results of the molecular cloning of potato apyrase showing five E-type ATPases from plants and microorganisms share consensus sequences found in human and murine CD39. The contributors demonstrated the ubiquitous nature of the ecto-ATPases presenting reports of the enzyme from a variety of organisms and tissues, a consensus was reached that E-type ATPases from organisms throughout the phylogenetic tree are related, and clear evidence was demonstrated of the important roles of ecto-ATPases in thromboregulation, transplant rejection, and parasitic survival as well as their role in lymphocyte function and clinically relevant areas such as hearing, kidney, epilepsy, and cancer.
