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

  • Dilution Buffer: 50 mM Tris, 5 mM CaCl2, pH 7.5
  • Assay Buffer: 50 mM Tris, 5 mM CaCl2, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.5 (TCN)
  • Recombinant Human Pro-CollagenI alpha 1 (rhPro-COL1A1) (Catalog # 6220-CL)
  • Recombinant Human BMP‑1/PCP (BMP‑1)(Catalog# 1927-ZN)
  • Reducing SDS-PAGE Sample Buffer
  • SDS-PAGE or Western Blot
  1. Dilute rhPro-COL1A1 to 75 µg/mL in Dilution Buffer.
  2. Dilute rhBMP-1 to 5 µg/mL in Assay Buffer.
  3. Combine one volume of diluted rhPro-COL1A1 with three volumes of diluted rhBMP-1.For controls, combine one volume of rhPro‑COL1A1 with three volumes of Assay Buffer, as well as, three volumes of rhBMP-1 with one volume of Assay Buffer.
  4. Incubate reaction vials and controls at 37 °C for 1 hour.
  5. After incubation, combine rhPro-COL1A1/rhBMP-1 reaction mixtures and controls with reducing SDS-PAGE gel buffer at a 2:1 (reaction mixture:gel buffer) ratio (v/v). Mix and incubate samples at 95-100 °C for 3-5 minutes to stop reactions.
  6. Load 40 µL (0.5 µg of rhPro-COL1A1) per lane and analyze the cleavage by SDS-PAGE followed by protein staining and/or Western blot.
  7. Activity Calculation:
% Cleavage = [1 - % full-length rhPro-COL1A1 (reaction)] x 100%
% full-length rhPro-COL1A1 (control)

Per Lane:

  • rhPro-COL1A1: 0.5 µg
  • rhBMP-1: 0.1 µg

Background: Collagen I alpha 1

Type I collagen is the most abundant structural protein of connective tissues such as skin, bone and tendon. It is synthesized as a procollagen molecule which is characterized by a 300 nm triple helical domain flanked by globular N- and C-terminal propeptides (1). The triple helical domain contains Gly-Xaa-Yaa triplets where Xaa and Yaa are frequently proline and hydroxyproline, respectively. The non-helical propeptides are removed by procollagen N- and C-proteinase activities so that the mature triple helices can self-assemble into collagen fibrils that provide tensile strength to tissues (1). Type I collagen is a heterotrimer that consists of two alpha 1(I) chains and one alpha 2(I) chain, although homotrimers consisting of three identical alpha 1(I) chains have also been described (2). This recombinant mini pro-alpha 1(I) collagenconsists of a shortened alpha 1(I) chain with following domain structure from N- to C-terminus: N-propeptide, N‑telopeptide, the 33 most N-terminal Gly-Xaa-Yaa repeats, the 33 most C-terminal Gly-Xaa-Yaa repeats, C-telopeptide and C-propeptide. The preparation contains a mixture of the full-length molecule, pN collagen I( alpha 1) and the C-terminal propeptide. This truncated pro-alpha 1(I) collagen is a substrate for procollagen N-proteinase and procollagen C-proteinase.
