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 ...

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 ...

Researchers at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, are developing an alternative to nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni-NTA) to purify recombinant proteins. Because it uses common ...

Researchers from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), have created a method that extracts over 80 per cent of the available protein in grain leftovers from brewing beer, ...

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 ...

Scientists can choose from many protein purification protocols, but some methods fail to produce sufficient sample purity. By selecting the right chromatography method, researchers can optimize the ...

With the growing demand for healthy diets and functional foods, plant extracts and plant protein peptides are increasingly being used in food processing, health supplement manufacturing, and ...

The team has further developed the method of chromatography. For this purpose, they have developed a light-sensitive molecular appendix that serves as an anchor for the target protein. It binds the ...

Membrane proteins are the gateway to cells and are involved in many critical functions. Each membrane protein is unique, and their complexity makes it difficult to fit into a standardized expression ...

Membrane proteins are vital for cellular signaling, transport, and communication, making them attractive drug targets despite their challenging properties. Advances in mass spectrometry have enabled ...
