The ISTA Protein Service offers state of the art equipment and infrastructure, consulting and training for protein production, purification and biophysical characterization.

Protein expression is done in E. coli and insect cells.

In addition we offer biophysical support for protein characterization and protein quality control.

We also offer molecular cloning depending on our personnel resources.

The facility currently offers training and access to the following instruments:
