Protein Interactions: Your Applications Guide
27 May 2019Understanding protein-protein interactions (PPI) and their specific functions underpins basic molecular research as well as the development of novel drugs. However, many of the conventional analysis methods do not provide important contextual information that reveals how a protein works in its native cellular environment, nor do they suit high-throughput screening campaigns. This eBook highlights several examples of robust, reproducible protein interaction assays, conducted on multi-detection microplate readers for higher throughput drug discovery workflows.

Protein QuantificationThe detection and quantification of proteins in a sample is vital across life sciences, pharmaceutical research and clinical diagnostics, and a variety of equipment is available to scientists to simplify the workflow. Proteins of interest can be easily labeled and detected on light-based detection instruments. Immunoassay kits allow you to identify a specific protein of interest and protein detection beads or antibody microarrays allow you to identify multiple specific proteins at once. Protein interactions and enzyme activity can also be monitored with protein-protein interaction assays. Additionally, the biophysical characterization of proteins is made easy with biokinetic analyzers.
