8 new JARID1 - JMJD2 HMT assays
A lot of efforts are made to identify potent and selective inhibitors for the demethylation reactions catalyzed by members of the JMJD2 and JARID1 protein families (1, 2). Both epigenetic eraser enzyme
Epigenetics Writers - Readers - Erasers: Targeting Readers in Drug Discovery
DNA and Histone proteins are targets for epigenetic modifications. While DNA is only methylated, histones can be targets for diverse modifications such as methylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, phosphorylation
5 reasons to prefer custom rec. protein production to commercial
Many recombinant proteins (rec. proteins) are now commercially available. And many of them, mainly secreted soluble proteins, are biologically active, so there shouldn't be any need to look for alternatives
Basics about insulin and dedicated research tools
Diabetes is a major health concern. And its research can be a nightmare sometimes. tebu-bio strive to offer a comprehensive range of research tools and services to study Obesity, Diabetes, and Metabolic
How to easily obtain a highly purified untagged recombinant protein
Isolation of highly purified untagged proteins is crucial in today's R&D programs. Up to now, recombinant protein production approaches were often based on the use of "tags" to make protein purification
Which endotoxin testing assay in bioproduction?
Pharmaceutical, biotech and medical device industries apply restrictive quality systems in their bio-production processes. Among the numerous parameters controlled daily by scientists, I have selected
SUMO-tag: boost your recombinant protein expression
SUMO-tag gene fusion acts as both a chaperonin and as an initiator of protein folding in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems. Addition of this tag enables protein experts to increase the expression
How sample preparation can affect your biomarker studies (II)
In a previous post, we looked at the importance of sample preparation methods depending on the biomarker being studied (e.g. MMPs, cytokines). Today, let's focus on cell / tissue lysates.
Tip #1
TUBEs: study M1 (linear) polyubiquitylated proteins
Traditional methods to detect and purify poly-ubiquitinated proteins require either anti-ubiquitin antibodies or Ubiquitin Binding Associated domains (UBAs). Most of the current methods display rather
