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

Rat liver tritosomes are hepatic lysosomes that have been loaded with Tyloxapol (Triton WR 1339), a non-ionic surfactant. Tyloxapol is taken up by hepatocytes through endocytosis and is trafficked to lysosomal

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

Montelukast is a marketed drug used for asthma treatment and to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies. It is known to function as a leukotriene receptor antagonist.

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

The treatment of diseases by inducing, enhancing, or surpressing an immune response is referred to

Antibody-based techniques are widely used in Life Science laboratories. Antibody purification is often required to raise purity yield of antibody production batches or to reach publication-grade data.

Transporters have become increasingly important in drug development due to the major role they play in absorption, distribution and excretion of

Knowledge about which epitopes are recognized by a blocking antibody can help researchers to develop
