Protein expression services enable scientists to produce proteins that are suited to their research purposes, such as enzymes for industrial applications, antibodies for diagnostics and therapeutics, and structural proteins to study cellular components. Protein production requires several steps, including cloning and gene synthesis, transcription and translation, and purification. Each step can have different effects on protein folding and post-translational modification. It is therefore critical to choose the right protein expression system to ensure that you can obtain high-quality recombinant proteins for your research.

Top Benefits of Professional Protein Expression Services

In addition to influencing protein stability, solubility, and yield, the choice of protein expression system also dictates how easy it is to characterize your target protein. For example, proteins that require specialized cellular compartments, such as membrane proteins, can only be expressed in systems that allow correct insertion and post-translational modifications. In addition, eukaryotic systems are typically more expensive to maintain and handle, while bacteria offer a more cost-effective solution for recombinant protein production.

The most commonly used protein expression systems include bacteria, baculovirus/insect cells, and mammalian cell lines. Each of these systems has advantages and disadvantages. For example, bacterial systems are inexpensive and simple to use, while mammalian cells are more costly and require more specialized facilities.

At Boster Bio, we utilize multiple bacterial and mammalian cell lines to meet the specific requirements of our customers. We offer a wide range of protein production services using stable cell lines, including protein/antibody production and endotoxin removal. Our expertise and quality assurance standards allow us to provide high-quality recombinant proteins, enabling you to focus on your research.
