Established in January 2001 and headquartered in Rehovot, Israel, Fulcrum SP Ltd. is a biotechnological company focused on the research and application of high-performance stable proteins. The company is led by a team of top ranking scientists and business professionals.
Based on a research project that began in 1989 at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Fulcrum SP's technology platform is founded on the biochemical mechanism by which plants are protected from stressful conditions. The research led to the discovery of a new class of extremely stable proteins that have the ability to stabilize and repair accompanying proteins.«Less

| Name: | SP Guard |
| Product URL: | http://www.fulcrumsp.com/products_SPGuard.htm |
| Description: | SP Guard™ is a ready-to-use stabilization buffer for HRP conjugates. SP Guard™ is a ready-to-use aqueous solution, containing purified SP1 as the active component. SP1 is a newly discovered plant-derived protein, which was isolated originally from Poplar trees. SP1 displays the following characteristics: * SP1 is resistant to a broad range of extreme conditions including elevated temperature, proteolitic digestion organic solvents and detergents. * Chaperone-like activity: SP1 protects other proteins from inactivation and aggregation, and repairs damaged proteins. SP1 activity is observed at low concentrations (about 1 micro g/ml) and under extreme conditions. * SPs are a new class of proteins: SP1 belongs to a newly discovered group of plant-derived proteins (SPs). SPs don't have any sequence homology with known proteins. * Structural characteristics: SP1 is a small protein (12.4 kDa) with self assembly properties that spontaneously form a doughnut-shaped 12-mer homo-oligomeric complex. |
