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.

Assay Procedure

Materials
  • Assay Buffer: 0.1 M NaH2PO4, pH 8.0
  • Recombinant Human Kallikrein 5 (rhKLK5) (Catalog # 1108-SE)
  • Fluorogenic Peptide Substrate BOC-Val-Pro-Arg-AMC (Catalog # ES011), 10 mM stock in DMSO
  • F16 Black Maxisorp Plate (Nunc, Catalog # 475515)
  • Fluorescent Plate Reader (Model: SpectraMax Gemini EM by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
  1. Dilute rhKLK5 to 2 ng/µL in Assay Buffer.
  2. Dilute Substrate to 200 µM in Assay Buffer.
  3. Load 50 µL of the 2 ng/µL rhKLK5 into plate and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 200 µM Substrate. Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 µL Assay Buffer and 50 µL of 200 µM Substrate without any rhKLK5.
  4. Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 380 nm and 460 nm (top read), respectively, in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
  5. Calculate specific activity:

     Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) =

Adjusted Vmax* (RFU/min) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/RFU)
amount of enzyme (µg)

     *Adjusted for Substrate Blank

     **Derived using calibration standard 7-Amino, 4-Methyl Coumarin (AMC) (Sigma, Catalog # A9891)

Per Well:
  • rhKLK5: 0.1 µg
  • Substrate: 100 µM

Background: Kallikrein 5

Human tissue Kallikrein 5 (hK5, also known as stratum corneum tryptic enzyme) is a serine protease of the human tissue Kallikrein gene family (2). The deduced amino acid sequence of human KLK5 consists of a signal peptide (Met1 to Gly22), a pro region (Val23 to Arg66) and a mature/active enzyme (Ile67 to Ser293). KLK5 is expressed mainly in skin, breast, brain and testis and to a lesser extent in many other tissues (3). KLK5 overexpression is an indicator of poor prognosis in ovarian cancer (4). hK5 is a candidate physiological activator of hK7 in the stratum corneum (5). Indeed, rhK5 can be used to activate rhK7 (R&D Systems, Catalog # 2624‑SE) by incubating rhK5 with recombinant human (rh) K7 (both at 0.1 mg/mL) in 25 mM MES, 0.15 M NaCl, pH 5.5, at 37 °C overnight.

rhK5 enzymatic activity can be inhibited by rhSerpinA1, A5, F2, and G1 (R&D Systems, Catalog # 1268‑PI, 1266‑PI, 1470-PI, 2488‑PI).
