In previous posts, we have discussed about whether samples should be pooled, how much (and if) they should be diluted, and how biologicals can affect the

A recent article by E. Langer

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

For secretome biomarker profiling, several solutions, including arrays allowing to screen up to 1,000 factors, have been available for some time now. These profiling solutions, however,

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

Which roles do IDO and TDO play in Immunotherapy? Immune evasion is one of the identifying hallmarks of cancer and researchers are investigating the complex mechanisms that enable cancer

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

Classically, it was known that CD4⁺ T cells, upon activation and expansion, develop into different T helper cell subsets with different cytokine profiles and distinct effector functions to effect

Immunoediting of cytokine signals provides another area of pathways which tumours utilise to evade and potentially escape from immunological targeting. This post aims at shedding some light into the Tumour

When producing recombinant proteins, one can follow the purification process either by antibodies detecting the target protein specifically, or by adding a tag to it, thus using antibodies detecting not

In a previous post, we looked at the importance of sample preparation
