Protein Production and Assay Development

Reaction Biology can assist you with the production of proteins and assays for a variety of target classes such as kinases, epigenetics, PARPs, DUB, HSP, protease, phosphatase, and many more.

Our services comprise:

Small or large scale custom-tailored protein production
Assay development and optimization/validation
Enzyme testing, substrate testing, and activator/inhibitor testing

Our scientists have created more than 1000 assays over the last 20 years including the successful completion of challenging projects. Please reach out to the business development manager in your area today to discuss how we can assist your protein production and assay development needs.
