Advantage of Difference in Gel Electrophoresis (DiGE)

Which of these is an advantage of difference in gel electrophoresis (DiGE) compared to gel free approaches

(a) More sensitive
(b) Intact proteins allow detection of changes in protein modification
(c) Allows a greater range of proteins to be analyzed
(d) Proteins are identified as part of quantification

 

The correct answer is:

(b) Intact proteins allow detection of changes in protein modification

Explanation:

Difference in Gel Electrophoresis (DiGE) is a powerful 2D gel-based proteomics technique that allows the comparison of multiple protein samples on the same gel using different fluorescent dyes. Unlike gel-free approaches (such as mass spectrometry-based shotgun proteomics), DiGE retains proteins in their intact form, making it especially useful for detecting post-translational modifications (PTMs) like phosphorylation, glycosylation, and acetylation.

  • (a) More sensitive → While DiGE is sensitive, gel-free approaches (e.g., LC-MS/MS) can sometimes offer even higher sensitivity.
  • (c) Allows a greater range of proteins to be analyzed → Gel-free methods generally provide broader proteome coverage.
  • (d) Proteins are identified as part of quantification → In DiGE, protein identification requires an additional mass spectrometry (MS) step, whereas gel-free approaches integrate identification and quantification.

Thus, (b) Intact proteins allow detection of changes in protein modification is the best answer. ✅

    I have dout in this questions according to video explanation sir ne 2d-page se compare krke option c ans diya jo ki shi hai but 2d page bhi toh gel technique hi hai na pr yha question me pucha hai compare to gel free tech. Toh according toh written explanation option B statement is right but ye dono es question ke answer kaise ho skte hai if option B correct answer hota hai toh vo dige ka advantage kaise hua ye toh gel free tech ka explaination hai
