Reagents for Proteomics

Wako Laboratory Chemicals produces a range of chemicals and reagents that are recommended by Shimadzu for use with their automated protein sequencers (Edman method)/ Protein Primary Structure Analysers (PPSQ-1, PPSQ-2 and PPSQ-10).

Regulatory proteins and inhibitory agents that control metabolism including proteases such as V8, Trypsin and Lysyl endopeptidase.

Glycobiology is concerned with the structure and function of glycans, oligo- or polysaccharides especially those that form part of a glycoprotein or glycolipid.

Wako offers a range of products to optimise MALDI-TOF MS, from proteome preparation reagents and digestion enzymes to MALDI-TOF MS matrix.

The Phos-tag™ developed by Hiroshima University is a functional molecule that specifically binds phosphorylated ions, forming stable complexes under physiological conditions. Phos-tag acts as a novel labelling system for analysis of phosphorylation.

Wako offers a range of laemmli sample buffers and running buffers for PAGE. Also offered are WIDE-VIEW III protein markers. Pre-stained, these markers have a range of 11- 145kDa with coloured proteins demarking 75kDa (red) and 25kDa (green). 

The PROTEOSAVE™ range utilises a proprietary ultra hydrophilic polymer developed by S-BIO that blocks nonspecific adsorption of proteins, peptides and cells.
