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.

211-TBB

Background: Lymphotoxin-alpha/TNF-beta

Lymphotoxin-alpha (LT-alpha ), also known as Tumor Necrosis Factor-beta (TNF-beta ), is a member of the TNF Superfamily. Human LT-alpha /TNF-beta is a 22 kDa protein that shares 73% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat LT-alpha /TNF-beta (1-3). Secreted LT-alpha forms homotrimers that bind and activate TNF RI/TNFRSF1A, TNF RII/TNFRSF1B, and HVEM/TNFRSF14 (4). LT-alpha /TNF-beta also forms heterotrimers with plasma membrane-localized LT-beta to bind and activate the LT-beta R/TNFRSF3 (4). In addition to its cytotoxic action on tumor cells, LT-alpha /TNF-beta mediates lymph node development, inflammation, and immune function (5-8). LT-alpha /TNF-beta is expressed in activated T- and B lymphocytes and contributes to autoimmune disease (9, 10).
