Various Protein/Peptide Crosslinking Services Now Available at Profacgen

Profacgen, a state-of-the-art protein service provider based in the USA, now provides various crosslinking products and services to deliver high-quality protein crosslinking reagents and apply them in different research projects.


 


Cross-linking is a technique in which two or more biomolecules are covalently bound together to form conjugates with enhanced physical properties and/or biological functions. The structure of a functional protein involves more than just intramolecular covalent bonds, which leads to challenging problems concerning the spatial orientation and non-covalent interactions of that protein. The dynamic characteristics of proteins in physiological environments make it possible to determine the role of individual amino acids in the chemical and biological characteristics of proteins. The ability to introduce modifications on protein structure is very useful because it allows exploration of protein function at the sub-molecular level and has the potential for various applications, such as the production of protein-enzyme conjugates. In protein chemistry, cross-linkers are widely used to study intermolecular interactions and to construct new structures. Mechanically, crosslinking strategies can be divided into three categories: chemical crosslinking, enzymatic crosslinking, and photocrosslinking.


 


To meet specific requirements, Profacgen offers different kinds of crosslinking products and services including:


 


Chemical Crosslinking


Amine to amine crosslinking, Thiol to thiol crosslinking, Thiol to amine crosslinking, Thiol/amine to carbohydrate.
