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.

Background: EphA3

EphA3, also known as Cek4, Mek4, Hek, Tyro4, and Hek4, is a 135 kDa glycosylated member of the transmembrane Eph receptor tyrosine kinase family. The A and B classes of Eph proteins are distinguished by Ephrin ligand binding preference but have a common structural organization. EphA3 preferentially binds to Ephrin-A5. Eph-Ephrin interactions are widely involved in the regulation of cell migration, tissue morphogenesis, and cancer progression (1, 2). The 521 amino acid (aa) extracellular domain (ECD) of human EphA3 contains an N-terminal Ephrin binding region, a cysteine-rich region, and two fibronectin type II domains. The 418 aa cytoplasmic domain contains the tyrosine kinase domain and a sterile alpha motif (SAM) (3, 4). Within the ECD, human EphA3 shares 96% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat EphA3. Alternate splicing generates a secreted isoform that consists of nearly the entire ECD. EphA3 is expressed in the developing forebrain, retinal axons, some spinal cord motor neurons, and the heart where it plays an important role in axonal repulsion and organ morphogenesis (5 - 8). It is upregulated on some hematopoietic and solid tumor cells and on astrocytes surrounding injured nervous tissue (3, 5, 9 - 11). EphA3 ligation inhibits cellular adhesion to fibronectin as well as cellular migration (9, 10). Transmembrane EphA3 associates in cis with ADAM10 which then promotes the cleavage in trans of Ephrin-A5 (12). It also associates in cis with Ephrin-A5 on retinal axons, thereby preventing the activation of EphA3 by Ephrin-A (13). Multiple tyrosine residues within the cytoplasmic region of EphA3 become phosphorylated during ligand-induced signaling (14, 15).
