Analysis
Product Datasheets
Carrier Free
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.
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
- Assay Buffer: 12.5 mM Tris, 75 mM NaCl, pH 7.5
- Recombinant Human Carbonic Anhydrase I/CA1 (rhCA1) (Catalog # 2180-CA)
- Substrate: 4-Nitrophenyl acetate (4-NPA) (Sigma, Catalog # N8130), 100 mM stock in acetone
- 96-well Clear Plate (Costar, Catalog # 92592)
- Plate reader (Model: SpectraMax Plus by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
- Dilute rhCA1 to 100 ng/µL in Assay Buffer.
- Dilute Substrate to 2 mM in Assay Buffer.
- Load 50 µL of 100 ng/µL rhCA1 into a plate, and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 2 mM Substrate.
- Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 µL of Assay Buffer and 50 µL of Substrate.
- Read at a wavelength of 400 nm (bottom read) in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
- Calculate specific activity:
Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) = |
Adjusted Vmax* (OD/min) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/OD) |
amount of enzyme (µg) |
*Adjusted for Substrate Blank
**Derived using calibration standard 4-Nitrophenol (Sigma, Catalog # 241326).
- rhCA1: 5 µg
- Substrate: 1 mM
Reconstitution Calculator
Background: Carbonic Anhydrase I/CA1
Carbonic Anhydrase (CA) catalyzes the reversible reaction of CO2 + H2O = HCO3- + H+, which is fundamental to many processes such as respiration, renal tubular acidification and bone resorption (1). Topics in a CA meeting (6th International Conference on the CAs, June 20-25, 2003, Slovakia) ranged from use of CAs as markers for tumor and hypoxia in clinic, as nutritional supplement in milk, and as a tool for CO2 removal and mosquito control in industry. CA1 is a cytosolic enzyme with the highest levels in erythrocytes and is a very early marker for erythroid differentiation (2). The activity of CA1 can also be measured by its ability to catalyze the reaction CO2 + H2O → HCO3- + H+, using a published method (3).
