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: Wnt/RSPO2

Wnt signaling is known to promote self-renewal of adult stem cells. R-Spondins amplify Wnt signaling in adult stem cells by binding to LGR5 receptors resulting in increased levels of Wnt receptor localization at the membrane surface. Many current organoid protocols include addition of Wnt-3a and R-Spondin proteins to the media for optimal adult stem cell maintenance and health of organoids. Fusion proteins known known as Wnt Surrogates have been described that have enhanced solubility when compared to the widely used Wnt-3a protein and mirror the activities of Wnt signaling.1 R&D Systems has constructed recombinant fusion proteins designed to bind elements of the Wnt receptor system including LGR-5, Frizzled, and LRP-5/6. These can initiate canonical Wnt signaling and are designed to simplify cell culture protocols by substituting for conditioned media or the addition of recombinant Wnt and R-Spondin.
