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: NGL-1/LRRC4C
Human NGL-1 (Netrin-G1 ligand) is a 67 kDa (predicted for mature protein), type I transmembrane cell adhesion molecule that is a member of the NGL family of proteins (1 - 2). It is synthesized from a precursor that is 640 amino acids (aa) in length that contains a 44 aa signal sequence, a 483 aa extracellular region, a 21 aa transmembrane region, and a short cytoplasmic tail of 92 aa. The extracellular region of NGL-1 consists of nine leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) that are flanked by LRR N-terminal and LRR C-terminal domains, and followed by an Ig-like C2-type domain (1 - 2). The cytoplasmic region contains a C-terminal Glu-Thr-Gln-Ile sequence that corresponds to a potential PDZ (postsynaptic density-95/discs large/zona occludens-1) domain-binding motif (1 - 2). Human NGL-1 is 99.7% aa identical to mouse NGL-1. Mouse NGL-1 is highly expressed in the developing cerebral cortex and the striatum at embryonic day 14 (1). Postnatally, NGL-1 is expressed exclusively in the brain, with the highest expression found in the cerebral cortex as a whole, and in individual neocortical areas such as the frontal, parietal and occipital lobes (1). Moderate expression of NGL-1 occurs in the putamen, amygdala, hippocampus and medulla oblongata (1). Weak expression is found in the caudate nucleus and thalamus (1). Functionally, membrane-bound cell-surface NGL-1 binds to netrin-G1 specifically through its LRR region, and in the developing brain, may promote neurite outgrowth of thalamocortical axons (1 - 4). Little is known about NGL-1’s function at later stages.
