FAQ from CYTOSKELETON


Cytoskeleton, Inc. has been a reliable source of protein reagents for drug screening for nearly two decades. Past clients include:
Merck Eli Lilly Amgen Abbott Labs GlaxoSmithKline
Genentech Johnson & Johnson Bristol -Myers Squibb Pfizer Wyeth

We support all of our products with a dedicated technical services department and years of experience in the fields of cell biology, cancer biology and neuroscience.

Some of the bulk purchases intended for screening projects are related to proprietary research, potentially limiting the number of citations available. Here are a select few recent publications that used our motor protein and/or tubulin products.
