Product catalog summary
Overview: The NanoPro 1000 by ProteinSimple is a cutting-edge tool for protein function and cell signaling analysis, capable of working with extremely small samples, as few as 25 cells per assay. It is particularly useful for analyzing primary cells, stem cell populations, tumor aspirates, micro-biopsies, and samples obtained through Laser Capture Microdissection.
Key Features:
  • Conserves precious samples by allowing direct protein characterization in limited cellular subpopulations.
  • Detects multiple phosphorylation states with a single antibody, improving data quality and reproducibility.
  • Automated assays increase sample throughput and save time by eliminating manual processes.
Technological Advantages: The NanoPro 1000 uses a capillary-based nano-immunoassay platform, employing isoelectric focusing (IEF) to resolve phosphorylation states of signaling proteins. This method provides more precise and accurate data compared to traditional techniques like Western blotting.
Applications:
  • Oncoprotein activation studies and detailed phospho-isoform profiling.
  • Quantification of post-translational modifications and discovery of kinase inhibitor drug effects.
  • Single-assay detection of AKT phosphorylation, crucial for understanding cell proliferation and survival in cancer research.
Process: The NanoPro 1000 process involves loading the sample, separating proteins via IEF, immobilizing them, immunoprobing for specific proteins, and quantitating the signal. The system is fully automated, enhancing precision and efficiency.
Specifications:
  • Sample requirement: 0.6–1.2 µg, with a volume of 5-12 µL per well.
  • Dynamic range of 3 logs and sensitivity in the low picogram range.
  • System dimensions: 84 cm H x 94 cm W x 61 cm D, weighing 82 kg.
  • Power requirements: 100–230 V AC, 50/60 Hz, with a power consumption of 205W.
Ordering Information: The NanoPro 1000 package includes the instrument, computer, Windows OS, Compass software, and a one-year warranty. Additional services like IQ/OQ validation and software access control are available.
Conclusion: The NanoPro 1000 represents a significant advancement in protein analysis, offering researchers a powerful tool to uncover new insights into protein function and disease mechanisms, ultimately aiding in the development of new therapeutics.

REVEAL PREVIOUSLY UNDETECTABLE INFORMATION REFRESH YOUR POINT OF VIEW: NOVEL APPLICATIONS WESTERN BLOT Conventional Western blot results are variable, semi-quantitative, and provide limited isoform identification. ERK1 and ERK2 appear as two poorly resolved bands using Western blot analysis. In contrast, the NanoPro 1000 resolves six bands: dual, mono, and non-phosphorylated isoforms of ERK1 and ERK2. NanoPro 1000 assays uncover fundamental mechanisms controlling cell proliferation and cell death, accelerate the development of new therapeutics, and help identify new prognostic and diagnostic...

TECHNOLOGY: A NEW TAKE ON IMMUNOASSAYS The NanoPro 1000 is a capillary-based nano-immunoassay platform. As in Western blot analysis, proteins from complex biological samples are separated, immobilized, and probed with antibodies. However, the NanoPro 1000 uses isoelectric focusing (IEF) to resolve the various phosphorylation states of signaling proteins. NanoPro 1000 assays are fully automated, and all steps are performed in a single capillary. A precision robot moves capillaries to the sample, reagent, incubation, and separation chambers as dictated by the assay protocol. Chemiluminescent image...
