Carrier Free
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.
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.

Background: Glypican 3
Glypican 3 (GPC3), also known as GTR2-2, intestinal protein OCI-5 and MXR7, is a member of the heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycan family (1). In mammals, six glypican family members have been identified, all sharing a conserved core protein that is linked to the cell membrane by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor. GPC3 can be cleaved by furin to produce two subunits that are linked by disulfide bonds: a 40 kDa N-terminal alpha subunit that can be secreted into the blood and a 30 kDa membrane-bound C-terminal beta subunit containing two HS glycan chains (1-3). Several isoforms of GPC3 due to alternative splicing have been reported (1). Within the mature extracellular domain, cynomolgus/rhesus GPC3 shares 99% amino acid sequence identity with human GPC3. GPC3 is an important biomarker present in the serum of hepatocellular carcinoma patients, which distinguishes benign from cancerous nodules (4). Glypican 3 is over-expressed in hepatocellular carcinomas and binding of GPC3 to CD81 promotes development of carcinomas by activation of Hippo pathways in hepatocytes (5). Our Avi-tag Biotinylated Recombinant Glypican 3 features biotinylation at a single site contained within the Avi-tag, a unique 15 amino acid peptide. Protein orientation will be uniform when bound to streptavidin-coated surface due to the precise control of biotinylation and the rest of the protein is unchanged so there is no interference in the protein's bioactivity.
