Protein Sequencing

Protein Sequencing or N-terminal sequencing is the process of identifying the order of amino acid arrangements in a peptide or protein.

Our service is accredited to ISO 17025:2005. Otherwise known as Edman degradation, this technique is recognised as the definitive sequencing method and is accepted as being the most reliable, robust and accurate method, providing an unambiguous sequence read.

It is an important tool for many scientific areas including:

• Identification and characterisation of proteins and peptides.
• A quality control check for synthetic peptides.
• Analysis of samples from Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) processes.
• Confirmation of the correct translation of a recombinant protein.
• Drug discovery for de novo sequencing of new novel proteins.
• Probe design for molecular cloning.
