Product Specifications
Lys35-Gly320, with a C-terminal 6-His tag
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.

Background: CEACAM-6/CD66c
Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 6 (CEACAM-6), previously called nonspecific crossreacting antigen (NCA) or CD66c, is one of seven human CEACAM family members within the immunoglobulin superfamily (1 - 4). In humans, CEACAMs include type I transmembrane proteins (CEACAM-1, -3, and -4) and GPI-linked molecules (CEACAM-5 through -8) (1). There is no human CEACAM-2. Human CEACAM-6 is a 90 kDa, GPI-linked membrane protein that contains a 34 amino acid (aa) signal sequence, a 286 aa extracellular domain (ECD), and a 24 aa hydrophobic C-terminal propeptide. The GPI membrane anchor is attached at the C-terminus following cleavage of the propeptide. CEACAM-6 contains one N-terminal V-type Ig-like domain (N domain), followed by two C2-type Ig-like domains (2 - 4). It shows considerable glycosylation, including (sialyl) LewisX, which mediates binding to E-selectin, galectins and some bacterial fimbrae (1, 2). Mature human CEACAM-6 shows 84%, 85%, 80%, 87% and 51% aa identity to the equivalent extracellular regions of human CEACAMs 1, 5 (CEA) and 8, rhesus CEACAM-2, and bovine CEACAM-6, respectively. CEACAM-6 is expressed by granulocytes and their precursors. Activation enhances surface expression by mobilizing CEACAM-6 from storage in azurophilic granules (5, 6). It often shows aberrant expression in acute lymphocytic leukemias (10). CEACAM-6 is also expressed in epithelia of various organs and is upregulated in pancreatic and colon adenocarcinomas and hyperplastic polyps (7, 8). Over-expression confers resistance to adhesion-related apoptosis (anoikis) in tumor cells (8, 9). CEACAM-6 is an intercellular adhesion molecule, forming both homotypic, and heterotypic bonds with CEACAM-1, -5 and -8 through interaction of the V-type Ig-like domains (11, 12). Cross-linking of neutrophil CEACAM-6 augments alpha v beta 3 and beta 2 integrin-mediated adhesion, apparently by src and caveolin-mediated inside-out integrin activation(8, 13, 14).
