Recombinant Human Ephrin-A1 Fc Chimera Protein, CF Summary

Product Specifications

Purity
>95%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Silver Staining and quantitative densitometry by Coomassie® Blue Staining
Endotoxin Level
<0.01 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
Activity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When Recombinant Human (rh) EphA2 (Catalog # 3035-A2) is coated at 2 μg/mL (100 μL/well), the concentration of rhEphrin-A1 Fc Chimera that produces 50% of the optimal binding response is found to be approximately 0.6-3 ng/mL.

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: Ephrin-A1

Ephrin-A1, also known as B61 and LERK-1, is a member of the Ephrin-A family of GPI-anchored ligands that bind and induce the tyrosine autophosphorylation of Eph receptors. Ephrin-A ligands are structurally related to the extracellular domains of the transmembrane Ephrin-B ligands. Eph-Ephrin interactions are widely involved in the regulation of cell migration, tissue morphogenesis, and cancer progression (1, 2). Human Ephrin-A1 is synthesized with an 18 amino acid (aa) signal peptide, a 164 aa mature chain, and a 23 aa C‑terminal propeptide which is removed prior to GPI linkage of Ephrin-A1 to the membrane (3, 4). It can also be released as a soluble molecule (3, 5, 6). The mature 21 ‑ 25 kDa human Ephrin-A1 shares 85% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat Ephrin-A1. Alternate splicing generates an additional isoform that lacks 22 aa in the juxtamembrane region (7).
This short isoform is also expressed on the cell surface and exhibits weakened binding to EphA2 (7). Ephrin-A1 is widely expressed on endothelial and epithelial cells, particularly in the lung, intestine, liver, and skin (4, 8). It is expressed on resting CD4+ T cells but is down‑regulated following activation (9, 10). Ligation of Ephrin-A1 on CD4+ T cells inhibits cell proliferation and activation, although soluble Ephrin-A1 can promote T cell chemotaxis (9, 10). In cancer, Ephrin-A1 is expressed by tumor cells as well as on the tumor‑associated vasculature (5, 6, 11). It inhibits tumor cell proliferation and migration but also supports tumor growth by promoting angiogenesis (12 ‑ 14). Soluble Ephrin-A1 additionally promotes neuronal survival and neurite extension (15).
