Carrier Free

What does CF mean?

CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.

What formulation is right for me?

In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

973-TM

  3. Incubate at 37 °C for 1 hour.
  4. Prepare a curve of rhTIMP-3 (MW: 21,700 Da) in Assay Buffer. Make serial dilutions of: 5,000, 2,000, 1,000, 500, 300, 200, 150, 100, 20, and 2 nM.
  5. After activation, dilute 100 µg/mL rhMMP-2 to 12.5 µg/mL in Assay Buffer.
  6. Mix 16 µL of rhTIMP-3 curve dilutions, 25.6 µL of diluted rhMMP-2, and 118.4 µL of Assay Buffer.

  11. Load 50 µL of the diluted incubated mixtures in a plate, and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 10 µM Substrate.
  12. Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 320 nm and 405 nm (top read), respectively in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
  13. Derive the IC50 value for rhTIMP-3 from the curve.
  14. Calculate specific activity for each point using the following formula (if needed):

     Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) =

Adjusted Vmax* (RFU/min) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/RFU)
amount of enzyme (µg)

     *Adjusted for Substrate Blank

     **Derived using calibration standard MCA-Pro-Leu-OH (Bachem, Catalog # M-1975).

Per Well:
  • rhMMP-2: 0.020 µg
  • Substrate: 5 µM

Background: TIMP-3

Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are a family of proteins that regulate the activation and proteolytic activity of the zinc enzymes known as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). There are four members of the family, TIMP-1, TIMP-2, TIMP-3 and TIMP-4. TIMP-3 is a glycoprotein with a molecular mass of 30 kDa produced by a wide range of cell types. TIMP-3 inhibits active MMP-mediated proteolysis by forming a non-covalent binary complex with the MMP active site through its N-terminal domain. In addition, TIMP-3 is the only known member of the TIMP family that is an effective inhibitor of ADAMs such as TACE (1).

TIMP-3 is unique among the TIMPs because of its high affinity for binding to the extracellular matrix (2). Point mutations in the TIMP-3 C-terminal domain have been reported to result in Sorsby's fundus dystrophy, a disease leading to macular degeneration and loss of vision.
