Tedious, time-consuming, exasperating: Those are perhaps the three words that researchers use most commonly to describe protein purification. Proteins, and their little sisters the peptides, are among ...

Creating analytical tools that support the advancement of knowledge can often come about through the integration of existing information and techniques, theoretical and practical, directed toward a ...

Conventionally, chromatography is used for protein purification, which is extremely expensive. Alternatively, the protein crystallization method could be used to determine protein structure, but this ...

Affinity chromatography can be applied to a wide array of proteins and works by exploiting the binding properties between proteins and ligands. It involves passing a recombinant protein mixture over a ...

Engineers devised a way to purify protein drugs during manufacturing. Their approach, which uses nanoparticles to rapidly crystallize proteins, could help make protein drugs more affordable and ...

Protein characterization can be an extensive field of study covering a broad range of analytical methods and techniques. Although biochemists have made significant advances in protein analysis, the ...

Proteins play a key role in the life sciences - from basic research and biotechnological applications to the development and manufacturing of pharmaceuticals. Scientists at the Technical University of ...

Efficient and affordable protein purification is essential for developing next-generation drugs and vaccines. As biopharmaceuticals such as bispecific antibodies and cell and gene therapies continue ...

The new cell-free protein crystallization (CFPC) method includes direct protein crystallization and is a major headway in the field of structural biology. This technique will enable the analysis of ...
