Protein Production Service

At abm, our Protein Production Services are designed to support a wide range of research applications. We offer expression in both E. coli and mammalian systems, providing flexibility depending on your protein's complexity and functional requirements. From small-scale expression to large-scale production, our team ensures quality, reliability, and fast turnaround times.

The E. coli expression system is a fast, cost-effective choice for producing recombinant proteins that don’t require complex modifications. It’s ideal for simpler proteins, as E. coli can efficiently produce large quantities. Recent advancements, such as the co-expression of molecular chaperones and engineered strains that promote disulfide bond formation, have further improved its ability to handle proteins that require a bit more complexity.

For proteins that require proper folding, glycosylation, or other mammalian-specific modifications, our mammalian expression system is the best fit. It delivers high-quality proteins suitable for immunological studies, structural studies, and cell-based applications where native-like conformation is essential.

Additional Info


  1. Disclaimer for intended use: All of abm's recombinant proteins are for research use only and not intended for therapeutic/diagnostic applications. abm is not liable for any violation (and associated repercussions) to the specified use of its entire suite of recombinant proteins.
  2. Disclaimer for 'E. coli' expression system: The choice of utilizing a prokaryotic expression system (Escherichia coli) for eukaryotic protein production is solely up to the discretion of the customer with respect to being aware of the limitations to the rendition of correct number and type of Post Translational Modifications (PTMs).
  3. Disclaimer for extra amino acids: abm does not guarantee that the recombinant protein product will be free of any additional amino acids residues. Cloning may lead to the insertion of some amino acids at either and/or the N and C-terminus of the recombinant protein product which in most cases, is innocuous to the stability/functionality of the recombinant protein.
  4. Disclaimer for turnaround time: Note that the turnaround time indicated above is our best estimate currently. Final turnaround time is subject to change depending on actual experimental conditions.
  5. Disclaimer for functionality: abm is not in a position to guarantee protein functionality.

  5. By default, a His tag will be used for purification purposes. Otherwise, additional charges apply and please provide a verified gene expression antibody along with a positive control.
  6. Charges for C112 and C113 determined after customer has reviewed report from C111 and requested for Phase II. An estimate can be provided during quotation process.

FAQs

For E. coli protein expression, is the purified protein delivered denatured or folded?
The protein will be purified without any denaturing steps but we cannot guarantee whether the protein is folded properly within the E. coli system.
