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: 100 mM HEPES, 0.5 mM MnCl2, pH 7.5
- Recombinant Mouse Aminopeptidase P2/XPNPEP2 (rmXPNPEP) (Catalog # 2494-ZN)
- Substrate: K(Abz)PP-pNA (Bachem, Catalog # L-1980)
- F16 Black Maxisorp Plate (Nunc, Catalog # 475515)
- Fluorescent Plate Reader (Model: Spectramax Gemini EM by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
- Dilute rmXPNPEP2 to 2 ng/µL in Assay Buffer.
- Dilute Substrate to 100 µM in Assay Buffer.
- In a plate load 50 µL of 2 ng/µL of rmXPNPEP2, and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 100 µM Substrate to wells. Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 µL Assay Buffer and 50 µL of 100 µM Substrate.
- Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 320 nm and 410 nm (top read), respectively, in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
- Calculate specific activity:
|
Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) = |
Adjusted Vmax* (RFU/min) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/RFU) |
| amount of enzyme (µg) |
*Adjusted for Substrate Blank
**Derived using calibration standard Abz-Gly (Bachem, Catalog # E-2920).
- rmXPNPEP2: 0.1 µg
- Substrate: 50 µM
Reconstitution Calculator
Background: Aminopeptidase P2/XPNPEP2
The mouse XPNPEP2 gene encodes Aminopeptidase P2 (APP2), which is also known as X-prolyl Aminopeptidase 2 or membrane bound Aminopeptidase P (1, 2). It is a member of the M24 family of metalloproteases, which also contains methionine aminopeptidases, X-Pro dipeptidase, Aminopeptidase P1, Aminopeptidase P homolog, proliferation-associated protein 1, and suppressor of Ty homolog or chromatin-specific transcription elongation factor large subunit (3). Mammalian APP2 are predicted to be GPI-anchored membrane proteases and their biological functions have been reviewed (4). Mouse APP2 is expressed in many adult tissues and in embryos (5). The purified rmAPP2 corresponds to the ectodomain and is shown here to be an active aminopeptidase, removing an N-terminal amino acid from a peptide that contains a Pro residue at the second position.
