Formulation, Preparation and Storage
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: CXCL11/I-TAC
CXCL11, also known as I-TAC, SCYB9B, H174, IP-9, and beta-R1, is a member within the non-ELR CXC chemokine subgroup and has been designated CXCL11. CXCL11, together with MIG and IP-10, constitute a subset of chemokines that are ligands for CXCR3, a chemokine receptor that is primarily expressed on activated Th1 cells and NK cells. The three chemokines were also reported to act as antagonists for CCR3, a chemokine receptor that is preferentially expressed on activated Th2 cells. Mouse CXCL11 cDNA encodes a 100 amino acid (aa) residue precursor protein with a putative 21 aa residue signal peptide that is cleaved to yield a 79 aa residue mature protein. Mature mouse and human CXCL11 share 71% aa sequence identity. Mouse CXCL11 also shares 36% and 29% aa sequence identity with mouse IP-10 (Crg-2) and mouse MIG, respectively. The gene for mouse CXCL11 has been mapped to chromosome 5, in close proximity to the IP-10 and MIG genes. Mouse CXCL11 is induced in multiple tissues during endoxemia, with the greatest expression in lung, heart, small intestine and kidney. The endotoxemia-induced mouse CXCL11 expression is strongly attenuated by treatment with glucocorticoid.
