REmAb® De Novo Protein Sequencing by Mass Spectrometry.

Our protein sequencing service determines the amino acid sequence of purified proteins with our proprietary high-throughput, full coverage de novo protein sequencing technology.

How REmAb® De Novo Protein Sequencing Works.

How It Works.

The REmAb® de novo protein sequencing workflow delivers a complete protein sequence with unparalleled accuracy and reliability. Starting with just 100μg of purified protein, the sample undergoes multi-enzyme digestions and the fragments are measured with LC-MS/MS to derive the de novo peptide sequences. These fragments are then analyzed by Rapid Novor’s suite of bioinformatics algorithms to assemble the full-length protein sequence.

Our unique de novo workflow allows us to determine the full protein sequence with hundreds of overlapped peptides without requiring a database or sequence library for reference or homology.

Downstream impact One sequence that works, every time Costly ambiguities to express and test

WILD® Isoleucine-Leucine Determination.

Isobaric combinations with confidence: our patented WILD® method was the first commercial service to use additional peptide fragmentation via electron transfer high collision energy dissociation (EThcD) to create and analyze w-ions. This enables true Isoleucine-Leucine determination based on experimental evidence alone. Our unique and patented WILDtag chemistry increases coverage and confidence in isobaric assignments.

WILD Isoluecine-Leucine determination allows us to obtain 100% accurate protein sequence with highest industry coverage

De Novo Sequencing From Any Species.

Our unique de novo workflow allows us to determine the full protein sequence without requiring a database or sequence library for reference or homology.

Success Stories.

0+
sequencing projects completed since 2015. Here’s what our customers said 2-3 months after the project:
Happy

100% of respondents were happy with the experience

Refer

Respondents were 9.7/10 likely to refer their peers.

Early wins

85% were already successful downstream. Remainder were in progress. No reported failure.

“You are certainly the best CRO we’ve ever worked with!❤️”

Roya Servattalab, Scientist II, Marengo Therapeutics

“We’ve focused on coupling cytokines with highly engineered VHVL of an antibody. So by sequencing the antibodies with Rapid Novor we are able to pull out the CDR to grant them into our platform and test in vitro and in vivo”

Pavel Khrimian, Co-Founder & CBO, Deka BioSciences

“Rapid Novor was tasked with finding highly specific, high affinity antibodies against an important target – and they delivered powerful antibodies fit-for-purpose. Such antibodies are not easily obtained yet Rapid Novor approach proved immediately successful, despite our time-constrained and stringent demands”

Matt Pope, Principal Scientist, SISCAPA
