Protein expression learning lab

This go-to educational resource combines an immersive lab environment with an interactive content designed to guide you at the bench on the optimization strategies and protocols needed for the rapid generation of milligram-to-gram quantities of secreted or intracellular recombinant proteins for therapeutic, functional, and structural studies.

 


Biologics expression

Recombinant protein expression is one of the most powerful techniques used in biologics development. Below we present solutions to help optimize your biologics discovery expression and accelerate your path to clinic.

Optimizing the therapeutic antibody production workflow

Learn about the tips and technologies that can be applied to help maximize the success of your therapeutic antibody production workflow.


Membrane protein expression

Producing membrane proteins can be difficult as it can be hard to preserve the correct conformation of the protein in isolation from its native environment. we present some protein expression tools that can significantly enhance the ability of researchers to study membrane protein biology.

Optimized expression of membrane protein in the Expi293 and ExpiCHO Expression Systems

In this poster, we present case studies on the optimization of ion channel and GPCR expression using ExpiCHO and Expi293 expression systems. Additionally, we demonstrate the utility of GNTI-, Inducible and Inducible/GNTI- Expi293 cell lines) to allow for regulated expression and/or glycosylation of membrane proteins.

Optimizing the membrane protein expression and purification workflow

Learn about the tips and technologies that can be applied to maximize the success of your membrane protein expression and purification workflow.


Viral protein expression

Rapid protein production is essential for infectious disease research. Below we present solutions to generate high-quality proteins for structural research, serological testing, therapeutics discovery and vaccine candidates screening.

Advancing the development of therapeutics against infectious diseases with optimized expression systems.

In this white paper, learn how our optimized protein expression systems can help understand viral pathogenicity and combat rapidly evolving pathogens.
