Biophysical analysis of molecular interactions
This PBSIM service offers a large panel of state-of-the-art equipment for the characterization of molecular complexes and the screening or analysis of molecular interactions, in solution or on solid support.
These tools are particularly adapted to the study of various complexes such as:
- protein/protein
- protein/nucleic acid
- protein/small molecule
- protein/detergent
