Unlock Proteome Depth with the Platinum® Pro Instrument and Sequencing Kit V4
September 8, 2025 • Patti Thompson
Sequencing Kit V4 is for use with the Platinum® and Platinum Pro sequencers. This innovative benchtop platform resolves the amino acid sequences of peptides, based on direct interactions with amino acid recognizers. Upgraded chemistry improves single-molecule sequencing by adding glycine (G) recognition and enhancing alanine (A) and serine (S) recognition. The inclusion of X-prolyl aminopeptidase allows for cleavage of proline-rich peptides. Improved bioinformatics, including enhancements to amino acid calling and alignment algorithms, delivers higher-quality data with V4, enabling richer data capture on the sequencer.
