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: VSTM5

V-set and transmembrane domain-containing protein 5 (VSTM5) is a cell-adhesion-like molecule found in the nervous system. It belongs to the VSTM family, a group of membrane proteins with an extracellular V-set domain and a single membrane-spanning region (1). Mouse VSTM5 is synthesized as a 199 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains a 27 aa signal sequence, a 119 aa extracellular domain (ECD), a 21 aa transmembrane segment, and a 32 aa cytoplasmic tail. Within the ECD, mouse VSTM5 shares 79% and 92% aa sequence identity with human and rat VSTM5, respectively. VSTM5 regulates morphology of the neurons during development by promotion of developing dendrites and forming synapse, and it guides both the positional migration of neuron cells and their dendritic morphology (1). N-linked glycosylation at multiple sites plays important roles for the expression, targeting, and function of VSTM5 (2).
