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: MBL

Human mannose/mannan-binding lectin (MBL) is a 25-30 kDa secreted glycoprotein in the collectin family of pattern-recognition molecules (1, 2). Mature human MBL contains a cysteine-rich region, a collagen-like segment, and a C-type lectin domain that binds to neutral bacterial carbohydrates (3). Human MBL shares 61% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat MBL and carries variable post-translation modifications including O-glycosylation and proline and lysine hydroxylation (4). Its collagen-like region mediates MBL association into disulfide-stabilized trimers which further associate into complexes containing three or four copies of the basic trimer (4, 5). MBL is secreted by hepatocytes and opsonizes bacteria through interactions with microbial carbohydrates (5). Tetrameric complexes of MBL show greater carbohydrate binding capacity compared to the trimers (5). MBL multimers can associate with the serine proteases MASP-1, -2, and -3 and promote their cleavage of Complement Component C3 (5-8). Proteolytic cleavage of C3 triggers activation of the complement system and formation of the membrane attack complex, leading to destruction of opsonized bacteria (2). In addition, MBL binds to the scavenger receptor CD91 which mediates the clearance of apoptotic material (9).
