Binding Screening
Protein binding screening is designed to quickly and efficiently evaluate large libraries of protein variants for their ability to bind a target of interest.
This high-throughput workflow enables you to classify candidates as binders or non-binders while also categorizing their binding strength (e.g., weak, medium, or strong). By focusing on rapid and cost-effective assays, our screening service is ideal for early-stage discovery projects where prioritizing candidates is key.
Key Features:
-
Starts at 99$/protein. 21 days turnaround time.
-
Yes/No Binding Classification: Rapidly determine whether each variant binds to the target.
-
Binding Strength Categorization: Classifies binders as weak, medium, or strong (no KD values).
-
High Throughput: Capable of screening thousands of variants in a single campaign.
-
Cost-Effective: Optimized for large-scale projects without compromising data quality.
When to Use:
-
To triage large libraries of protein variants during early discovery phases.
-
To identify promising binders for subsequent detailed characterization.
-
When rapid and broad insights into binding potential are required.
-
If you need precise binding kinetics with KD values, see Affinity Characterization.
How It Works
During a binding screen, protein variants are immobilized or presented in solution, and the target analyte is flowed over the experimental setup. Real-time binding events are monitored using bio-layer interferometry (BLI), and results are analyzed to classify each variant. Single-concentration measurements provide approximate binding strength, allowing you to prioritize strong binders while excluding non-binders or weak candidates
