Facilitate Structural Analyses of Proteins with Cell-Free Production of Proteins

QIAGEN, in cooperation with Cambridge Isotope Laboratories, launches EasyXpress NMR Protein Synthesis Kits. These kits provide bench-top cell-free production of proteins labeled with stable isotopes, delivering up to 10 mg protein in a matter of hours.

The incorporation of isotopically labeled amino acids (provided from Cambridge Isotope Laboratories) is done easily and in small reaction volumes – saving costs and facilitating structural analyses of proteins using NMR and quantitation using mass spectrometry.

In conjunction with the launch, the two companies are sponsoring a contest that awards winning researchers with a free isotope-enriched protein of their choice. To enter please follow the Company article page link top right of this page. Entries will be accepted through July 15, 2010.
