BioPORTER Protein Delivery Reagent from AMSBIO is a unique lipid formulation that allows direct translocation of proteins into living cells.
The company claims that BioPORTER is the first and only lipid-based protein delivery system that efficiently transports proteins into living cells.
Comprising a cationic lipid mixture that interacts non-covalently with the protein, BioPORTER creates a protective vehicle for immediate protein delivery.
It also makes studying protein functionality faster and easier by bypassing DNA transfection, transcription and protein translation processes.
After capturing the protein, the reagent transports the lipid protein complex into the target cell. The delivered proteins retain their structure and function while leaving the transduced cells unharmed.
Because of its delivery mechanism and because there is no fusion partner or covalent bond formation, BioPORTER can efficiently deliver functionally active proteins into a wide range of cell types.
It is especially useful when studying protein function in cells that are difficult to transfect using traditional DNA transfection reagents.
BioPORTER is available either as a bulk reagent or as pre-dispensed and dried in convenient single-use QuikEase vials.
