Glyco-Cubipol

The proprietary Cubipol backbone, developed in-house by Cube Biotech, condenses the positive effects of previously available backbones like SMA, DIBMA, and UltrasoluteTM Amphipol. This new development delivers a new multimodal copolymer backbone, making the Cubipol series the first commercially available next-generation copolymer with 9 available off-the-shelf modified variants.

It joins the Next Generation Copolymers AASTY and Ultrasolute™ Amphipol, making solubilization and stabilization of membrane proteins a simpler and more effective endeavor than ever before.

Screening is key to discovering the best copolymer to stabilize your membrane protein target.

This modification of the Cubipol backbone is glucamine-based and is the derivate with the lowest charge of the entire Cubipol Series. This copolymer is well suited for charge sensitive downstream applications.
