Today 25 different human disorders have been linked to protein depositions including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. Characterization of the underlying mechanisms is important in the quest to design inhibitors implying a need for good model systems as well as a good supply of the specific polypeptides.
A recombinant expression system for proteins and peptides in bacteria provides several advantages where a very low heterogeneity can be obtained as well as it facilitate uniform isotope labeling. Alexotech is specialized in recombinant production of long and aggregation-prone peptides. We can today provide an expanding range of products frequently used within research on Familial Amyloidotic Polyneuropathy, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease including uniformly isotope labeled peptides and proteins.
