Proteins are the most important and largest biomolecules and extremely vital to the functioning of an organism. They interact with other biomolecules and carry out various roles to keep the cell alive. Thus, companies invest a fortune to understand the protein binding mechanism through specialized fields of study. These techniques focus on the ability to specifically tag proteins by developing genetic fusion and imparting distinctive properties for protein visualization, entrapment, and manipulation within the complex biochemical environment.
The emerging trends in protein labeling such as emergence of more specific labels with higher affinity and binding properties, bioorthogonal labeling, and customized label designing would fuel the global protein labeling market growth. Such advanced labels help in better marking, identification, separation, and quantification of proteins

Protein labeling techniques have become crucial techniques for proteomic profiling. In addition, three different types of tags are commonly used including mass tags, stable isotopes, and fluorophores. Among these techniques, mass tags and stable isotopes are categorized by mass spectrometry while fluorescent labels are detected with fluorescence images. The aim of protein labeling is to monitor biological processes along with the quantification and specific detection of compounds protein modifications.
Protein labeling technique is a secondary research tool for proteomic analysis, and is used for research and diagnostic purposes in biotechnology and pharmaceuticals industries. Moreover, with the rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer, the need for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of such diseases is on the rise. Consequently, the demand for such techniques is anticipated to increase. Alternatively, lack of skilled professionals, limited applications of protein labeling products along with high costs of reagents, kits, and other protein labeling services are the key factors that could impede the market growth.
According to Allied Market Research, the global protein labeling market is expected to reach $5.35 billion by 2022, growing at 14.9% by 2022. An increase in healthcare expenditure, growth in proteomics research, and surge in R&D investments have boosted the market growth. Over the last few years, the demand for stem cell and immune cell-based therapy has increased and for which in-vivo cell tracking is essential. Such therapies have boosted the growth of the protein labeling market. The advent of small and medium-sized companies in the market with customized protein labeling kits and the focus of major companies on new product launches has created a perfect storm for innovation.
Recently, Refeyn, a leading company in the mass photometry sector, launched TwoMP Auto mass photometer. It is a special instrument developed for automatic loading and analysing biomolecular samples for characterization of proteins at the single-molecule level. As per the company, the instrument offers research with automated direct mass measurements of up to 14 samples within an hour. This new product is one step toward the company’s momentum in product innovations on mass photometry. Moreover, it would allow researchers to save time via autonomous label-free analysis of biomolecules in solution without heavy consumption of sample.
Such innovations have enabled scientists to label proteins during cells. In a nutshell, protein labeling refers to the use of precise molecular labels to identify the labeled protein and its binding partners. While there are many labeling strategies available, many companies have invested in improving such methods and getting precise results.
