Lipid coated beads are designed for use in protein pull-down experiments. Use to test for lipid binding of purified protein, proteins in cell lysate, or binding of radiolabeled in vitro translation products.

Phosphatidic Acid Beads are composed of agarose with 10 nanomoles of bound phosphatidic acid (PA) per 1ml of beads, enough for several protein binding experiments. Each 1 mL order of Phosphatidic Acid Beads includes a small amount of control beads. Larger quantities of Control Beads are also available for purchase.
