Prokaryotic expression system dominates the market

The prokaryotic expression system leads the market amongst other expression systems. It offers large-scale recombinant protein production in a short time and at a lower cost. It is easier to handle and fulfill the major purpose of research.

The mammalian cell expression system is expected to grow fastest over the forecast period as these cells can express large and complex recombinant proteins. Many companies work with mammalian cell expression systems to develop and produce proteins transiently.

Reagents segment is expected to hold the largest market share in 2021

The reagents segment is supposed to account for the largest market share in 2021 as, to meet the unique requirements of transfection and enhance cell culture conditions, companies provide a wide selection of transfection reagents. For instance, Merck offers a ProteoJuice protein transfection reagent for the transfection of intact functional proteins and peptides into mammalian cells with minimal toxicity and broad cell specificity.

The service segment is expected to grow fastest during the forecast period as several providers offer protein expression and production choices. By outsourcing this application, researchers can save time and effort and access technical expertise and tools for creating and manufacturing numerous useful proteins. Such services can provide researchers with the benefits of a complete workflow that starts with a specific gene and ends with the purified protein, in addition to various protein expression system alternatives.

For instance, Sino Biological provides complete services from gene cloning and synthesis to protein characterization. Similarly, Sino Biological offers Baculovirus-Insect Cell Expression service with various applications, including less expensive, easily scalable, useful for large protein targets, and suitable for challenging targets such as kinases and toxic proteins.

Therapeutic segment dominates the market

The therapeutics segment leads the market due to its several benefits over alternative medicines. Therapeutic proteins are used for treating diseases in millions of individuals. Protein therapeutics are customizable, resulting in a more effective line of treatment and a low probability of side effects. Recombinant proteins used as therapeutics, vaccines, and diagnostic tools are now possible due to recent advancements in recombinant DNA technologies.

The industrial synthesis of recombinant proteins essential for therapeutic and preventative purposes depends on developing effective bioprocessing techniques. Recent developments in the numerous domains of bioprocessing are being used to provide efficient methods for creating recombinant proteins.

Therapeutic protein-induced antidrug antibodies can change drug pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics, resulting in decreased efficacy and, in exceptional cases, major safety concerns. A recent study described a method to reduce this risk by evaluating the therapeutic protein immunogenicity risk, emphasizing assays and in vivo models.

Pharmaceuticals and biotechnological companies account largest market revenue

Pharmaceuticals and biotechnological companies acquired the largest market share in 2021 due to the widespread utilization of cultured cells in manufacturing therapeutics and customized medications. The segment's expansion is attributed to the rising need for therapeutic proteins, such as hormones, enzymes, and anticoagulants, and the increasing costs of developing new drugs.

Increased advancements in genomics, cloning, and numerous molecular biology techniques, as well as increased utilization of tools and reagents for research, contribute to the segment's growth.

North America dominated the regional market

North America dominates the regional market due to the growing demand for protein biologics and the increased prevalence of chronic diseases. In addition, strong pipelines of biosimilars and high spending on R&D with the presence of major key players contributed to regional growth.

The region is witnessing a growth in research on stem cells and cancer, along with an increase in chronic ailments, such as cardiovascular and blood diseases. Many biopharmaceutical companies are developing stem cell research as one of the most promising treatments for various disorders using advanced protein expression tools.
