Analysis
Product Datasheets
Carrier Free
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.
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: CD5
CD5, also known as Leu-1, Ly-1, and T1, is a 67 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein in the scavenger receptor superfamily (1). Mature mouse CD5 consists of a 347 amino acid (aa) extracellular domain (ECD) with three scavenger receptor cysteine-rich (SRCR) domains, a 30 aa transmembrane segment, and a 93 aa cytoplasmic domain (2). Within the ECD, mouse CD5 shares 55% and 82% aa sequence identity with human and rat CD5, respectively. The 52 kDa ECD can be cleaved from the cell surface and circulates in the serum (3). CD5 has been shown to interact homophilically, with CD72 on B cells, and with beta-glucan components of fungal cell walls (4-6). CD5 expression on developing thymocytes is positively regulated by signaling through the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) and is up‑regulated on tolerized peripheral CD4+ cells (7, 8). It inhibits TCR signaling and promotes T cell nonresponsiveness and survival (8-10). CD5 signaling inhibits the generation of regulatory T cells but promotes the development of Th17 cells (11, 12). Within the B cell lineage, CD5 is expressed on B-1a cells, anergic B cells, and IL-10 producing regulatory B cells (13-16). Similarly to on T cells, it negatively regulates signaling through the B cell antigen receptor and supports peripheral B cell survival, anergy, and tolerance (13, 14, 16). In humans, B cells can produce an intracellularly-retained form of CD5 which lacks the signal peptide and a portion of the first SRCR domain (17). CD5 is also involved in the cellular entry of hepatitis C virus into T cells (18).
