Service Process
Our Ribosome Display Service follows a rigorous and comprehensive process to ensure accurate and efficient results. The key steps involved are:
- Library Construction: We employ advanced molecular biology techniques to generate diverse libraries containing millions of protein variants. This ensures a vast pool of candidates for subsequent selection.
- Selection: The libraries are subjected to multiple rounds of selection using the target molecule. Through this iterative process, proteins with desired binding properties are enriched, enhancing the chances of identifying high-affinity candidates.
- Expression and Evaluation: Selected protein candidates are expressed, purified, and meticulously evaluated for their binding affinity, specificity, and functionality. This step ensures that only the most promising candidates progress further in the process.
- Characterization: Further characterization of the selected proteins can be performed to gain deeper insights into their properties. This includes epitope mapping, stability analysis, and functional assays, providing a comprehensive understanding of the selected candidates.
- Delivery: As part of our service, we provide detailed reports that contain the sequence information of the selected protein candidates, along with comprehensive experimental data. This enables our clients to make informed decisions for their specific applications.
