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: IGFALS/ALS

IGFALS (Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein complex acid labile subunit) or ALS (Acid labile subunit) is an 84-86 kDa glycoprotein member of the leucine rich repeat superfamily of molecules. It is secreted by hepatocytes in response to growth hormone stimulation, and forms a 140-150 kDa ternary complex with IGFBP3 (or IGFBP5) and IGF-I (1, 2). This complex increases the half-life of IGF-I and retains it in the circulation for use in multiple tissues. Natural variants of IGFALS/ALS have been found in idiopathic short stature in children (3, 4). Mature human IGFALS/ALS is 578 amino acids (aa) in length (aa 28-605). It contains twenty-one 20-23 aa LRRs that participate in protein-protein interactions. Structural studies have predicted the molecule to be a torus with a cluster of negative charge on the inside (5). Over aa 28-603, human IGFALS/ALS shares 79% and 78% aa identity with mouse and rat IGFALS/ALS, respectively.
