Protein extraction is an important process in the field of biochemistry and drug discovery.

Protein extraction is an important process in the field of biochemistry and drug discovery. It is essential to understand protein function and develop therapeutic interventions. The extraction of protein typically begins with the disruption of the cell or tissue sample, which can be achieved through mechanical methods (e.g., grinding, homogenization) using the Precellys homogenizer. Samples usually contain proteins that also present proteases that degrade proteins. Protein inhibitors are small molecules or compounds that can bind to proteins and modulate their activity. They are efficient against proteases by shutting down their activity. These inhibitors can be natural products derived from plants or microorganisms, or they can be synthesized in the laboratory.
