Workflow
Step 1: Design
Design and order linear or circular DNA constructs
Step 2: Express & purify
Automated data-generating screens to determine your path to soluble, purifiable proteins
Step 3: Scale up & go!
Scale up proteins to μg and mg scales

How does eProtein Discovery work?
In 24 hours, parallel cell-free screens rank the construct, fusion tag, and expression parameters most likely to yield soluble, purified protein. Two dedicated workflows match your targets: Soluble and Membrane. Overnight, scale top conditions off-cartridge to µg–mg so you have assay-ready output by 48 hours.
Intuitive software. Robust decision-grade data. The protein you need to move forward.
Confidently advance with soluble, active, purifiable proteins
Express a wide range of proteins
eProtein Discovery can produce a variety of proteins – from soluble proteins as small as 18kDa to large membrane proteins up to 300kDa: GPCRs, cytokines, growth factors and kinases to name a few.
A data-driven journey to your protein
Automated reports identify the best construct and expression conditions for scale-up: solubility, purifiability, and purified yield.
Produce active protein in 48 hours
DNA-binding dataset for GATA-1, a highly disordered transcription factor. Multiplex screening identified the optimum solubility tag and expression conditions (chaperone and metal cofactor) to produce active GATA-1 (EC50 = 88.09 ng/mL).
Perform structural studies
Ab initio structure showcasing MsbA embedded within an Membrane scaffold protein (MSP)-Lipid based nanodisc. Multiplex screening identified the optimum membrane stabilizer to produce high yields (~200 µg/mL) of MsbA.
What are we hearing?
"The eProtein Discovery System is a welcome new toolkit for membrane protein production. We were commissioned via Imperial Consultants to test the protein quality in our lab – and the early results are promising.”
A protein system like no other
Combining unique cell-free expression systems, novel digital microfluidics, and robust screening data, eProtein Discovery empowers scientists to perform their own protein screening, characterization, and small-scale expression in-house within days. With eProtein Discovery, time is on your side.
Know which proteins have the best chance of success from day one, and take protein projects forward with confidence.
