Available Custom Recombinant Protein Expression Systems

Expression System Common Applications Advantages Challenges

Mammalian

Custom Proteins Mammalian
  • Functional and structural analysis
  • Antibody production
  • Protein interactions
  • Production of enzyme in large scale
  • Virus production
  • Most authentic human protein products
  • Best preservation of native structure, function, and post-translational modifications
  • Create stable production cell lines for scalable solutions
  • Complex culture conditions
  • Costly set-up and maintenance
  • Low yields
  • Scaling difficulties

Insect

Custom Proteins
  • Functional and structural analysis
  • Expression of protein complexes
  • Expression of intracellular proteins
  • Virus-like particles production
  • Post-translation modifications profile is similar to mammalian cells
  • Effective protein folding
  • More scalable than mammalian cells
  • Virus production can be time consuming
  • Tricky to culture
  • Infection can induce premature lysis

Bacterial

Custom Proteins
  • Structural analysis
  • Antibody production
  • Protein interactions
  • Enzyme production
  • Vaccine development
  • Simple vector construction
  • Straightforward culture methods
  • High yields
  • Amenable to scaling
