SILAC Amino Acids and Sets

CIL offers a myriad of free amino acids (either stable isotope-labeled or unlabeled) for SILAC (i.e., ‘Stable Isotope Labeling by Amino acids in Cell culture’)-MS proteomic studies.  The stable isotopes that are to be metabolically incorporated can be conventional (e.g., L-Lys, L-Arg) or unconventional (e.g., L- Azidohomoalanine) depending on the nature of the SILAC study.  Quantitation of the standard or newly synthesized proteins is relative and can be performed in a targeted or non-targeted manner.

Please visit our SILAC Applications page for more information on the technique, resources, applications, and FAQs.
