Peptides
We can synthesise difficult peptides (greater than 100 amino acids) and peptides with a wide and increasing range of amino acid modifications including N-terminal, C-terminal and side-chain modifications, multiple disulphide bridges, fluorescent labels, lipidation, D-amino acid and heavy isotope incorporation, biotinylation, glycosylation, post translational modifications, PEGylation and more. Standard peptides are routinely provided as free N-terminal amines and C-terminal acids.
A typical custom synthesis peptide run will yield between 5 – 50 mg of the peptide in question, depending upon the number of amino acids and complexity of the product. Turnaround time for a peptide synthesis is typically 1-3 weeks but may be longer for peptides over 60 amino acids, those with difficult modifications or if TFA removal, or non-routine analysis is required. We have capacity for larger scale synthesis and are able to provide multi-gram quantities.
Purity levels
Standard catalogue peptide purity is >95% but this level is not always required for custom peptides. The majority of peptides are in freeze dried form and will contain counter ions and physically bound water as a result of cleavage from resin, hplc and drying. These counter ions have no effect on the biochemical properties of the peptide but do reduce the mass of peptide present in a given sample, usually to >70%. This can be confirmed by further analysis. Please let us know your purity specifications at the outset of a project to make sure we provide the most appropriate product for your requirements.
Analysis
Peptide and biochemical purity is assessed using an array of techniques including HPLC, NMR, microanalysis, high voltage electrophoresis, TLC, and mass spectrometry as appropriate. All data is kept on file and available on request.
Peptides purified by reversed phase HPLC or ion exchange chromatography have their purity given as the area under the curve of the major peak when analysed at a specific wavelength, usually 230nm.
Mass spectroscopy analysis is performed to in order to confirm the identity of the final product and the mass analysis is supplied with the peptide.
Amino acid analysis can be provided as an additional service to determine peptide composition, and can also be used to determine net peptide if required.
Microanalysis may also be provided as an additional service, and can also be used to determine net peptide. Please discuss this option at the start of the project if microanalysis will be required.
