Assessment of a protein of interest in biological systems is key to the work of biochemists and cell biologists the world over.  At the MRC PPU, we are no stranger to the critical need for reliable and sensitive antibody tools.

Let us take care of your routine cloning allowing you to focus on your research. We will work with you to clone your gene of interest into your vector of choice. Our highly qualified cloners have years of experience and are committed to providing the best service possible.

Generation and purification of recombinant proteins is a critical tool in the biochemical toolbox.  Follow-on studies examining the activity of an enzyme are heavily reliant on the integrity of the resultant product.

Established in 1998, we are a core DNA sequencing and fragment analysis facility based within the Medical Research Council Protein Phosphorylation and Ubiquitylation Unit (MRC PPU) in Dundee, Scotland.

We have developed a sensitive and fast assay to quantify in vitro DUB enzyme activity using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry.

The MRC Protein Phosphorylation and Ubiquitylation Unit at The University of Dundee pioneered analysis of the selectivity of protein kinase inhibitors by setting up the first service to tackle this problem in 1998.
