The roles of numerous proteins, particularly those linked to cancer, remain largely unexplored. Advancing biomedical research requires mapping these proteins´ structures, understanding where and how they are distributed within tissues and cells, and uncovering their specific functions. However, a major obstacle is the difficulty of producing proteins of interest in sufficient quality and quantity for thorough analysis, which slows down research.
The Protein Production Unit was created to tackle this challenge. This core lab provides expertise and advanced technology to develop streamlined methods for producing high quality recombinant proteins. These proteins serve as essential resources for a range of downstream applications such as the production of highly specific antibodies, detailed biophysical and biochemical analyses, functional studies, and structural investigations. Ultimately, this Unit aims to accelerate cutting-edge cancer research at CNIO and support external groups.
