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: FGF-22

Fibroblast growth factor-22 (FGF-22) is a 23 kDa, non-glycosylated member of the FGF-7 subfamily, from the FGF family of heparin-binding growth factors (1-3). The human FGF-22 precursor is 170 amino acids (aa) in length, and contains a 22 aa signal sequence with a 148 aa mature region (4-6). The mature region shows a centrally-placed, 120 aa beta -trefoil region (aa 43-168) that is characteristic of all FGF family members. Human FGF-22 potentially has one alternate splice form. This isoform is 129 aa in length, and shows a 31 aa substitution for the first N-terminal 72 aa of the standard, or long, form (7). There is no information related to its possible function. Mature human FGF-22 is 86% aa identical to mouse FGF-22, with the mouse molecule showing a 9 aa deletion at the N-terminus (5). FGF-22 is synthesized by at least three cell types; keratinocytes, neurons, and skeletal muscle myotubes (4, 8, 9). In neurons and myotubes, FGF-22 is presumed to function as an organizer of the presynaptic apparatus. Expressed by postsynaptic (or target) cells, FGF-22 is believed to bind to FGF R2b on the surface of innervating processes, resulting in synaptic vesicle clustering, organization, and neurite branching (8, 10). Although FGF-22 is assumed to be secreted, little can be found in expressing cell culture media. Presumably, it is bound to 34 kDa FGF-BP1, which is a molecule described as typically associated with cell membrane proteoglycans (6, 11). Thus, following secretion, FGF-22 could quickly be immobilized by FGF-BP1, only to be released at a later time, or aided by FGF-BP1 in its interaction with FGF R2b (6, 10, 11).
