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: Matrilin-2

Matrilin-2 is an extracellular matrix protein that belongs to the superfamily of von Willebrand factor A (VWA) containing proteins. It is expressed in many tissues and functions as a bridging component between other matrix proteins (1 - 4). The human Matrilin-2 cDNA encodes a 956 amino acid (aa) precursor with a 23 aa signal sequence, two VWA domains separated by ten tandem EGF-like repeats, and a C-terminal coiled-coil domain (5, 6). Alternate splicing generates Isoform 2 (with an 18 aa deletion near the C-terminus), Isoform 3 (with a deletion of the fourth EGF-like repeat), and Isoform 4 (with a deletion of the first VWA and first EGF-like repeat). Human Matrilin-2 shares 87% and 84% aa sequence identity with mouse and canine Matrilin-2, respectively, and 27%, 22%, and 33% aa sequence identity with human Matrilin-1, -3, and -4, respectively. Matrilin-2 forms a variety of disulfide-linked oligomers via its coiled-coil domain (4, 7, 8, 9). It can assemble into homotrimers or heterotrimers with Matrilin-1 and/or Matrilin-4 (4, 7, 8) but has not been detected in heterotrimers containing Matrilin-3 (8). The VWA domains are thought to mediate Matrilin-Matrilin interactions as well as interactions with other matrix proteins such as Fibronectin, Collagen I, Fibrillin-2, and Laminin-1/Nidogen-1 complexes (7). Matrilin-2 knockout mice do not display any obvious abnormalities, suggesting that the expression of other molecules can compensate for the lack of Matrilin-2 (10).
