Proteins & Peptides

The multiple uses of proteins and peptides in biochemical research require diverse protein sources. Considerations for the right research protein or peptide include type, origin, quantity, consistency, purity, and cost effectiveness. Proteins used for research include carrier proteins- proteins involved in the movement of ions, small molecules, or macromolecules across a biological membrane, inhibitors- proteins that specifically block the action of one or more protein kinases, lectins- sugar-binding proteins, antigens-substances that evoke the production of one or more antibodies, and immunoglobulins- proteins used by the immune system to identify and neutralize foreign objects such as bacteria and viruses. This catalog divides existing proteins and peptides under specific categories, such as human blocking peptides, mouse cytoskeletal proteins, and viral chemokines. Variable quantities and consistencies in liquid, powder, or crystal consistencies are available for flexible experimental purposes – i.e. unconjugated plant lectins can be purchased in 8mL or 8mg amounts. Appropriate proteins and peptides are available here for flow cytometry, western blotting, immunostaining, ELISA, and numerous other assays.
