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: 50 mM MES, 100 mM NaCl, 0.05% (w/v) Brij-35, pH 6.5
  • Recombinant C. perfringens Neuraminidase (rCpNA) (Catalog # 5080-NM)
  • Substrate: 2’-(4-Methylumbelliferyl)-alpha -D-N-acetylneuraminic acid (Sigma, Catalog # M8639), 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 rCpNA to 0.04 ng/µL in Assay Buffer.
  2. Dilute Substrate to 400 µM in Assay Buffer.
  3. Load 50 µL of 0.04 ng/µL rCpNA into a plate, and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 400 µM Substrate.
  4. Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 365 nm and 445 nm (top read), respectively in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
  5. Calculate specific activity:

     Specific Activity (pmoles/min/µg) =

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

     *Adjusted for Substrate Blank

     **Derived using calibration standard 4-Methylumbelliferone (Sigma, Catalog # M1381).

Per Well:
  • rCpNA: 0.002 µg
  • Substrate: 200 µM

Background: Bacterial Neuraminidase

Neuraminidase and Sialidase are the common names for N‑acetyl‑neuraminyl hydrolase (1-3). The enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of alpha 2-3 and alpha 2-6 linked N‑acetyl‑neuraminic acid residues from glycoproteins and glycolipids. It has little activity against the alpha 2-8 linked N‑acetyl‑neuraminic acid residues.
