DNA Testing

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a nucleic acid that contains the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living organisms. The main role of DNA molecules is the long-term storage of information. DNA is often compared to a set of blueprints, since it contains the instructions needed to construct other components of cells, such as proteins and RNA molecules. The DNA segments that carry this genetic information are called genes, but other DNA sequences have structural purposes, or are involved in regulating the use of this genetic information.

Paternity Testing

A maternity or paternity identification test is conducted to establish whether a person is the biological parent of another person. A test to prove paternity (whether a man is someone's father) is known as a paternity test; a test to prove whether a woman is someone's mother) is called a maternity test.

Maternity Testing

Maternity DNA testing determines whether a woman could be the biological mother of a child. Like a DNA paternity test, it compares a child’s DNA pattern with that of the alleged mother to determine how likely it is that the child has inherited the DNA from the alleged mother.

EVER1 Antibody

EVER1 Antibody

Catalog# : 4549

Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV) is an autosomal recessive dermatosis characterized by abnormal susceptibility to human papillomaviruses (HPVs) and a high rate of progression to squamous cell carcinoma on sun-exposed skin. EV is caused by mutations in either of two adjacent genes, EVER1 and EVER2, located on chromosome 17q25.3. Both of these genes encode integral membrane proteins that localize to the endoplasmic reticulum and are predicted to form transmembrane channels. Both EVER1 and EVER2 are members of the transmembrane channel-like (TMC) protein family. EVER1 possesses eight trans-membrane domains and two leucine zipper motifs. EVER1 and EVER2 form a complex and interact with the zinc transporter 1 (ZnT-1), suggesting that EVER1 and EVER2 act to regulate cellular zinc balance. At least four isoforms of EVER1 are known to exist. This EVER1 antibody does not cross-react with EVER2.

CSN8 Antibody

CSN8 Antibody

Catalog# : 4601

The COP9 signalosome (CSN) is an evolutionarily conserved protein complex of the eight subunits that interacts with deubiquitinating enzymes and protein kinases and is highly homologous to the lid sub-complex of 26S proteasome. The CSN complex is an essential regulator of the ubiquitin conjugation pathway by mediating the deneddylation of the SCF-type E3 ligase complexes, which leads to a decrease in ubiquitin ligase activity of SCF-comlpexes such as SCF, CSA or DDB2. It is also involved in phosphorylation of p53, c-jun/JUN, ITPK1 and IRF8/ICSBP, possibly via its association with CK2 and PKD kinases. CSN8 encodes the smallest and the least conserved but first identified subunit of CSN. Recent studies show CSN8 is essential for Drosophila development and is essential for peripheral T cell homeostasis and antigen receptor-induced entry into the cell cycle from quiescence.

CPEB1 Antibody

CPEB1 Antibody

Catalog# : 4687

CPEB1 is an RNA binding protein that contains an RNA-recognition motif and a zinc finger-containing region found in a wide range of vertebrates and invertebrates. CPEB1 forms the nucleus of a complex of factors that regulate poly(A) elongation and promotes polyadenylation-induced translation. CPEB1 mediates many diverse biological processes such as germ cell development, cell division and senescence, and synaptic plasticity. Recently, it was discovered that CPEB1 is involved in beta-catenin mRNA translation and cell migration in astrocytes as well as regulating hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1 expression, demonstrating the wide range of processes in which CPEB1 plays a role. At least four isoforms of CPEB1 are known to exist.

DNA Double Helix


In geometry a double helix (plural helices) typically consists of two congruent helices with the same axis, differing by a translation along the axis, which may or may not be half-way.

Double Helix

In molecular biology, the double helix refers to the structure of DNA. The structure of DNA was first published in the journal Nature by James D. Watson and Francis Crick in 1953, based upon data from Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin. The DNA double helix is a right-handed spiral polymer of nucleic acids, held together by nucleotides which base pair together. A single turn of the helix constitutes ten nucleotides. The double helix structure of DNA contains a major groove and minor groove, the major groove being wider than the minor groove.

Nucleic Acid

A nucleic acid is a macromolecule composed of chains of monomeric nucleotides. In biochemistry these molecules carry genetic information or form structures within cells. The most common nucleic acids are deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). The term "nucleic acid" is the generic name for a family of biopolymers, named for their role in the cell nucleus. The monomers from which nucleic acids are constructed are called nucleotides.Each nucleotide consists of three components: a nitrogenous heterocyclic base, which is either a purine or a pyrimidine; a pentose sugar; and a phosphate group.

CLIP170 Antibody

CLIP170 Antibody

Catalog# : 4659

CLIP170 was initially identified as a new type of intermediate filament associated protein that is highly expressed in Reed-Sternberg cells, the tumoral cells diagnostic for Hodgkin’s disease. Later experiments showed that it is located at microtubule plus ends and is required for the binding of endocytic carrier vesicles. CLIP170 has also been suggested to act with LIS1, a protein implicated in brain development, to regulate dynein/dynactin binding microtubules. Other studies suggest that CLIP170 can influence the formation of lamellipodia and cell invasion by invasive breast cancer cells by regulating the release of kinesin and IQGAP1 from a complex of those proteins, CLIP170 and Rac1. At least two isoforms of CLIP170 are known to exist.

CIP75 Antibody

CIP75 Antibody

Catalog# : 5267

The ubiquitin-proteosome pathway of protein degradation is one of the mechanisms that ensure the proper level of cellular proteins. The ubiquitin-like (UbL) and ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain containing protein family is thought to be involved in proteosomal degradation. One such protein is CIP75, also known as ubiquilin-4, interacts with a number of proteins such as Ataxin-1 and Connexin-43, resulting in an increased rate of turnover of these proteins. Overexpression CIP75 led to a significant reduction of Connexin-43 half-life, with the opposite being observed in siRNA knockdown experiments. CIP75 contains an N-terminal UbL domain which is thought to interact with proteins of the 26S proteosome complex and a C-terminal UBA domain which appears to mediate its interaction with Connexin-75. At least three isoforms of CIP75 are known to exist.

CDC42 Antibody

CDC42 Antibody

Catalog# : 5101

CDC42 is a small GTPase of the Rho-subfamily, which regulates signaling pathways that control diverse cellular functions including cell morphology, migration, endocytosis and cell cycle progression. This protein is highly similar to S. cerevisiae CDC42, and is able to complement the yeast cdc42-1 mutant. The product of oncogene Dbl was reported to specifically catalyze the dissociation of GDP from this protein. CDC42 is thought to regulate actin polymerization through its direct binding to Neural Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (N-WASP), which subsequently activates Arp2/3 complex. At least two isoforms of CDC42 are known to exist.

Peptide Interactions


Peptides are short polymers formed from the linking, in a defined order, of α-amino acids. The link between one amino acid residue and the next is known as an amide bond or a peptide bond. Proteins are polypeptide molecules (or consist of multiple polypeptide subunits). The distinction is that peptides are short and polypeptides/proteins are long. There are several different conventions to determine these, all of which have flaws.

Ribosomal Peptides

These are synthesized by translation of mRNA. They are often subjected to proteolysis to generate the mature form. These function, typically in higher organisms, as hormones and signaling molecules. Some lower organisms produce peptides as antibiotics, such as microcins.

Non-ribosomal Peptides

These peptides are assembled by enzymes that are specific to each peptide, rather than by the ribosome. The most common non-ribosomal peptide is glutathione, which is a component of the antioxidant defences of most aerobic organisms. Other nonribosomal peptides are most common in unicellular organisms, plants, and fungi and are synthesized by modular enzyme complexes called nonribosomal peptide synthesises.

CCDC98 Antibody

CCDC98 Antibody

Catalog# : 4321

CCDC98, also known as Abraxas 1, was identified through protein binding studies using the breast and ovarian predisposition protein BRCA1 as the binding target. CCDC98 recruits RAP80, a ubiquitin-binding protein, to BRCA1, allowing the formation of BRCA1 foci in response to DNA damage caused by ionizing radiation. Both CCDC98 and RAP80 are required for DNA damage resistance, G2-M checkpoint control, and DNA repair. Cells depleted of either CCDC98 or RAP80 exhibited increased sensitivity to ionizing radiation, although not as much as in BRCA1-depleted cells, suggesting that CCDC98 and RAP80 control only part of the DNA damage response role of BRCA1. At least two isoforms of CCDC98 are known to exist.

Bub3 Antibody

Bub3 Antibody

Catalog# : 4227

The mitotic checkpoint protein Bub3 is involved with the essential spindle checkpoint pathway which operates during early embryogenesis. Bub3 is important during G2 and early mitosis stages, permitting entry into mitosis depending upon the assembly state of microtubules, thus preventing premature sister chromatid separation, mis-segregation and aneuploidy. Bub3 contains four WD repeat domains and is required for the kinetochore localization of Bub1, a related kinase that is necessary for spindle assembly checkpoint function. Bub1 is able to autophosphorylate and can catalyze the phosphorylation of Bub3. Both Bub1 and Bub3 are mutually dependent for function. Altered Bub expression levels may significantly impair mitotic checkpoint function and is associated with tumor cell proliferation.

Bub1 Antibody

Bub1 Antibody

Catalog# : 4229

Bub1 was initially identified as the mammalian homolog to the yeast protein through a cDNA screen. Bub1 encodes a kinase involved in the formation of the spindle checkpoint, an important mechanism that ensures high fidelity mitotic chromosome segregation. It is thought to be required for assembly of a functional inner centromere, sister chromatid cohesion via targeting of the Shugoshim protein and metaphase congression. Bub1 functions by phosphorylating cdc20, a member of the mitotic checkpoint complex and activating the spindle checkpoint. A related protein kinase Bub3 interacts with Bub1 and targets it to kinetochores prior to chromosome alignment. Mutations in bub1 have been associated with aneuploidy and several forms of cancer.

DNA Microarrays


A DNA microarray is a high-throughput technology used in molecular biology and in medicine. It consists of an arrayed series of thousands of microscopic spots of DNA oligonucleotides, called features, each containing picomoles of a specific DNA sequence.

DNA Microarrays

Dna Microarrays can be a short section of a gene or other DNA element that are used as probes to hybridize a cDNA or cRNA sample (called target) under high-stringency conditions. Probe-target hybridization is usually detected and quantified by fluorescence-based detection of fluorophore-labeled targets to determine relative abundance of nucleic acid sequences in the target.

Spotted Microarrays

In spotted microarrays, the probes are oligonucleotides, cDNA or small fragments of PCR products that correspond to mRNAs. The probes are synthesized prior to deposition on the array surface and are then "spotted" onto glass. A common approach utilizes an array of fine pins or needles controlled by a robotic arm that is dipped into wells containing DNA probes and then depositing each probe at designated locations on the array surface.

Oligonucleotide Microarrays

In oligonucleotide microarrays, the probes are short sequences designed to match parts of the sequence of known or predicted open reading frames. Although oligonucleotide probes are often used in "spotted" microarrays, the term "oligonucleotide array" most often refers to a specific technique of manufacturing. Oligonucleotide arrays are produced by printing short oligonucleotide sequences designed to represent a single gene or family of gene splice-variants by synthesizing this sequence directly onto the array surface instead of depositing intact sequences. Sequences may be longer (60-mer probes such as the Agilent design) or shorter (25-mer probes produced by Affymetrix) depending on the desired purpose; longer probes are more specific to individual target genes, shorter probes may be spotted in higher density across the array and are cheaper to manufacture

Large Scale Custom Peptide Synthesis


Bio-Synthesis has been producing synthetic peptides for over 25 years. Our expertise in custom synthetic polypeptide manufacturing allows us to produce the high-quality, large-scale, and GMP peptides with the highest success rate with long standing records. We have been delivered more than 100,000 peptides to customers worldwide, including very hydrophobic polypeptide, peptide with multiple disulfide bonds, multi-phosph0rylated peptides and extremely long peptides. Our large scale non-GMP ever delivered 5 kilograms of peptides on a single order and has the capacity of 10,000 peptides per month. Our capacity of GMP peptide is 10 kilograms.

Peptide Applications

Peptide applications play an important role in biochemistry, molecular biology, immunology and medicine. In the human body, most if not all biological/physiological processes are regulated by various forms of molecular recognition. Most of these processes involve initiation or inhibition trough protein-protein interaction. As we know peptides and proteins due to the vast number of conformational possibilities are ideal to carry out such complex control functions.

Use of Synthetic Peptides

Synthetic peptides have been widely used for many purposes like: structure-function studies of polypeptides, as peptide hormones and hormone analogues, in the preparation of cross-reacting antibodies, in the design of novel enzyme and in drug discovery.

Biologically Active Peptides

The last 40 years have seen an enormous growth in the methodologies available to obtain peptide and protein molecules. Through recombinant methods, most labs can now assemble genes, subcloned into expression vectors and obtain a wide range of endogenous proteins; likewise the pioneering work of Bruce Merrifield, makes it possible to obtain large scale with multikilo amounts of a number of biologically active peptides.

BRCC45 Antibody

BRCC45 Antibody

Catalog# : 4329

BRCC45 was initially suggested to be a housekeeping protein that is highly expressed in brain and reproductive organs. Later experiments indicated BRCC45 forms a complex with the breast and ovarian predisposition proteins BRCA1 and BRCA2 as well as RAD51 and BRCC36. This complex has a ubiquitin E3 ligase activity and is thought to enhance cellular survival following DNA damage. BRCC45 has also been suggested to function as a death receptor-associated anti-apoptotic protein by inhibiting the BID-induced activation of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Higher levels of BRCC45 were detected in the majority of hepatocellular carcinomas, suggesting that BRCC45 may promote tumorigenesis when overexpressed. At least three isoforms of BRCC45 are known to exist.

BRCC36 Antibody

BRCC36 Antibody

Catalog# : 4331

Together with the breast and ovarian predisposition proteins BRCA1 and BRCA2 and RAD51 and BRCC45, BRCC36 forms a holoenzyme complex that possesses a ubiquitin E3 ligase activity. Aberrant levels of BRCC36 were detected in sporadic breast tumors and depletion of either BRCC36 or BRCC45 by siRNA resulted in increased sensitivity to ionizing radiation and defects in the G2/M checkpoint, indicating that BRCC36 acts to enhance cellular survival following DNA damage. Recent experiments have shown that BRCC36 is essential for ionizing radiation-induced BRCA1 phosphorylation and nuclear foci formation, suggesting that BRCC36 may be an important target in the treatment of radiation-resistant breast tumors. At least two isoforms of BRCC36 are known to exist.

Bora Antibody

Bora Antibody

Catalog# : 5117

Bora (Protein aurora borealis) is a key activator of Aurora Related Protein Kinase A (ARK-1), which is a centrosome-associated serine/threonine kinase that regulates centrosome maturation, bipolar spindle assembly and chromosome segregation during mitosis. Bora is localized to the nucleus until mitosis is initiated, then translocates to the cytoplasm in a Cdc2 dependent manner. Activation of Cdc2 initiates the release of Bora into the cytoplasm where it can bind and activate ARK-1. PLK1 (polo-like kinase-1) interacts with Bora to control the accessibility of its activation loop for phosphorylation and activation by ARK-1. Bora and ARK-1 cooperatively activate PLK1 and control mitotic entry. Bora mutants result in multipolar spindles in mitosis identical to those observed when ARK-1 function is blocked. Thus, the ARK1-Bora-PLK1 regulatory circuit in mammalian cells elucidates a key mechanism in cell cycle regulation. At least three isoforms of Bora are known to exist.
