GenScript’s peptide array service utilizes SPOT technology, which serves as a powerful proteomic technique to study molecular recognition events and identify biologically active peptides. With automated instrumentation, GenScript is able to quickly and cost-effectively synthesize a large number of addressable peptides in small amounts on special cellulose membranes. It can be used for applications that involve peptide screening, such as epitope mapping, protein-protein, enzyme-substrate, and receptor-ligand interactions studies, phosphorylation studies, as well as binding and functional assay studies.
The service features flexible delivery choices, both membrane-bound peptides and cleaved peptides from membrane in lyophilized format can be delivered for researchers’ different applications. In particular, membrane-bound peptide array allows in situ screening of peptide arrays due to the special properties of the membrane supports.
