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.

Scientific Data

Recombinant Mouse Noggin Protein (Catalog # 6997-NG) has a molecular weight (MW) of 55.7 kDa as analyzed by SEC-MALS, suggesting that this protein is a homodimer. MW may differ from predicted MW due to post-translational modifications (PTMs) present (i.e. Glycosylation).

Measured by its ability to inhibit BMP-4-induced alkaline phosphatase production by ATDC5 mouse chondrogenic cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.04-0.16 μg/mL in the presence of 50 ng/mL of Recombinant Human BMP-4 (314-BP).

Background: Noggin
Noggin is a secreted homodimeric glycoprotein that is an antagonist of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) (1, 2). Human Noggin cDNA encodes a 232 amino acid (aa) precursor protein; cleavage of a 19 aa signal peptide generates the 213 aa mature protein which contains an N‑terminal acidic region, a central basic
heparin‑binding segment and a C‑terminal cysteine‑knot structure (2). Secreted Noggin probably remains close to the cell surface due to its binding of
heparin‑containing proteoglycans (3). Noggin is very highly conserved among vertebrates, such that mature mouse Noggin shares 99%, 100%, 98%, 97% and 87% aa sequence identity with human, rat, bovine, equine and chicken Noggin, respectively. Noggin binds some BMPs such as BMP‑4 with high affinity and others such as BMP‑7 with lower affinity. It antagonizes BMP bioactivities by blocking epitopes on BMPs that are needed for binding to both type I and type II receptors (2, 4). During embryogenesis, Noggin antagonizes specific BMPs at defined times, for example, during neural tube, somite and cardiomyocyte growth and patterning (5-7). During skeletal development, Noggin prevents chondrocyte hyperplasia, thus allowing proper formation of joints (4). Mutations within the cysteine‑knot region of human Noggin are linked to multiple types of skeletal dysplasias that result in apical joint fusions (8). Noggin is expressed in defined areas of the adult central nervous system and peripheral tissues such as lung, skeletal muscle and skin (1). During culture of human embryonic stem cells (hESC) or neural stem cells under certain conditions, addition of Noggin to antagonize BMP activity may allow stem cells to proliferate while maintaining their undifferentiated state, or alternatively, to differentiate into dopaminergic neurons (6, 9-13). Noggin also appears to maintain adult stem cell populations in vivo, for example, maintaining neural stem cells within the hippocampus (13).
