About Team:

Protein Biology

‍

The Protein Biology team is involved in large-scale functional validation of antibodies, with a deep focus on reagent quality and specificity. The core activities of the team include data mining and processing, Western blotting with state-of-art tools, high efficiency and high-resolution immuno-fluorescence imaging, immunohistochemistry, ChIP (Chromatin Immunoprecipitation), and gene-silencing to provide advance application tags to our antibody portfolio. The program's goal is high-quality product validation and product information creation to promote research use.
