About us | ||
Contributions | Protagen AG provides a unique technology platform addressing all aspects in modern protein
science including:
A highly reproducible method for the differential display of membrane and plasma membrane proteins, i.e. lipid associated proteins, based on the Large Gel 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis method (2DE) developed by Joachim Klose a method for highly reproducible differential display of membrane proteins was developed.
In order to identify high affinity protein ligands and other high-affinity binding molecules, e.g. lipids, aptamers, small molecules and nucleic acids Protagen employs a high content protein macroarray. The macroarrays contain His-tagged > 37.000 DNA sequenced human protein expression products produced in E.coli.
The set of binders used in the project for pull downs and other methods will be tested for specificity on protein Microarrays - UNIchip® - in order to significantly reduce the false positive rate. This technology allows the quantitative analysis of the off-target binding partners and ensitivity/affinity testing.Specialised Microarrays for quantitative and statistical significant studies of protein lipid interaction will be produced employing the high-throughput capabilities at Protagen.
Modiro® - a new software tool developed by Protagen allows the precise identification of all known and even hitherto unknown posttranslational protein modifications (PTM) in proteins and peptides. MS/MS spectra generated by machines from all manufactures can be analysed.
