Analysis
Product Datasheets
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.

Assay Procedure
- Assay Buffer: 50 mM NaOAc, pH 5.0
- Recombinant Human TRACP/PAP/ACP5 (rhACP5) (Catalog # 3948-AP)
- Substrate: p-Nitrophenyl phosphate (Sigma-Aldrich, Catalog # N2765)
- 96-well Clear Plate (Costar, Catalog # 92592)
- Plate Reader (Model: SpectraMax Plus by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
- NaOH, 0.2 M in deionized water
- Dilute rhACP5 to 0.1 μg/mL in Assay Buffer.
- Dilute Substrate to 2 mM in Assay Buffer.
- In a plate combine 50 μL of rhACP5 and 50 μL of 2 mM Substrate. Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 μL Assay Buffer and 50 μL of 2 mM Substrate.
- Incubate reaction at room temperature for 10 minutes in the dark.
- Add 100 μL of 0.2 M NaOH to stop the reaction and develop the color.
- Read (top read) absorbance in endpoint mode at 410 nm.
- Calculate specific activity:
Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) = |
Adjusted Abs* (OD) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/OD) |
Incubation time (min) x amount of enzyme (µg) |
*Adjusted for Substrate Blank
**Derived using calibration standard p-Nitrophenol (Sigma-Aldrich, Catalog # 241326).
- rhACP5: 0.005 μg
- Substrate: 0.5 mM
Reconstitution Calculator
Background: TRACP/PAP/ACP5
Encoded by the ACP5 gene, Tartrate Resistant Acid Phosphatase (TRACP or TRAP) is also known as Purple Acid Phosphatase (PAP) or Acid Phosphatase 5 (ACP5) (1). The deuced amino acid (aa) sequence of human ACP5 predicts a signal peptide (aa 1 to 21) and a mature chain (aa 22 to 325). R&D Systems’ recombinant human ACP5 consists of aa 22 to 320, without the last 5 residues, RRARP.
ACP5 is expressed at high levels by osteoclasts, macrophages and dendritic cells (2). Two forms, 5a and 5b, circulating in human blood, are derived from different cell types and have different functions. Derived from macrophages and dendritic cells, 5a is a marker of inflammatory conditions. Derived from osteoclasts, 5b is a marker of bone resorption. Compared to 5a, 5b does not contain sialic acid residues, has a higher specific activity and pH optimum, and may be processed into a disulfide-linked dimer (3).
