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: Integrin alpha 5 beta 1
Integrin alpha 5/ beta 1, also known as VLA-5, is a widely expressed non-covalent heterodimer of a 160 kDa alpha 5 and a 130 kDa beta 1 Integrin subunit. alpha 5/ beta 1 functions in cell adhesion, migration, activation, and matrix fibrillogenesis (1, 2). The human Integrin alpha 5/CD49e cDNA encodes a 1049 amino acid (aa) precursor that includes a 41 aa signal sequence, a 954 aa extracellular domain (ECD), a 26 aa transmembrane segment, and a 28 aa cytoplasmic domain. The ECD contains seven FG-GAP repeats and nine internal disulfide bonds (3). Within the ECD, human alpha 5 shares 90% and 46% aa sequence identity with mouse alpha 5 and human alpha 8, respectively, and less than 30% aa sequence identitity with other human alpha chains. The human Integrin beta 1/CD29 cDNA encodes a 798 aa precursor that includes a 20 aa signal sequence, a 708 aa ECD, a 23 aa transmembrane segment, and a 47 aa cytoplasmic domain. The ECD contains one vWF-A domain, four Cys-rich repeats, and 29 internal disulfide bonds (3). Five alternate splice forms of the cytoplasmic domain vary by 12 to 48 aa. Within the ECD, human beta 1 shares 92-96% aa sequence identity with rat, bovine, mouse, and feline beta 1. It shares 35-45% aa sequence identity with other beta chains. alpha 5/ beta 1 binds fibronectin in both RGD-dependent and -independent manners (4, 5). alpha 5/ beta 1 is up‑regulated on tumor vasculature and promotes angiogenesis (6, 7). This is accomplished in part by a constitutive association in cis of alpha 5/ beta 1 with VEGFR3 and Tie2, a requirement for optimal activation of those receptors (8, 9). alpha 5/ beta 1 interacts with a variety of other proteins, including HER2, uPAR, Galectin‑1, CTGF, and thrombin-cleaved Osteopontin (5, 10-13). alpha 5/ beta 1 also functions on some hematopoietic and neuronal stem cells (14, 15).
