Invitrogenheader_logo

Carlsbad, CA - Invitrogen Corporation launched MembraneMax™ Protein Expression Kits, a system that allows the expression and purification of soluble membrane proteins to overcome some of the hurdles preventing a deeper understanding of membrane protein structure and function. Invitrogen's kit combines unique MembraneMax™ Technology, an optimized nanolipoprotein reagent, with Invitrogen's cell-free expression system and enables the scalable expression and purification of up to milligram quantities of pure protein. These membrane protein-MembraneMax complexes can be used for antibody production, biophysical studies, and assay development.
