Cryo-EM Research

Relying on mature membrane protein preparation and cryo-EM technology platforms, Distolife offers a comprehensive, end-to-end solution from sample preparation to 3D structural determination. We conduct technical route evaluations and continuously optimize sample homogeneity and cryo-grid preparation conditions.

This full-process service—from membrane protein preparation to structural analysis—supports the elucidation of target mechanism of action (MoA), analysis of drug binding modes, and rational drug design & development.
