Determination of the molecular weight by molecular exclusion chromatography
A protein was purified to homogeneity. Determination of the molecular weight by molecular exclusion chromatography yields 60 kd. Chromatography in the presence of 6 M urea yields a 30-kd species. […]
DNA replication with radio-labeled nucleotides, followed by urea-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE)
In an invitro experiment using radio-labeled nucleotides, a researcher is trying to analyze the possible products or DNA replication by resolving the products using urea-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In one experimental […]
To determine the Isoelectric point of a protein
To determine the isoelectric point of a protein, first establish that a gel: (a) Contains a denaturing detergent that can distribute uniform negative charges over the protein’s surface. (b) Exhibits […]
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D-GE)
The first step in two-dimensional gel electrophoresis generates a series of protein bands by isoelectric focusing. In a second step a strip of this gel is turned 90 degrees, placed […]

SDS-PAGE & Protein Separation Role of SDS Explained
By adding SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) during the electrophoresis of proteins, it is possible to: (a) Determine a protein’s isoelectric point. (b) Determine an enzyme’s specific activity. (c) Determine the […]
The electrophoretic mobility of migration of different biomolecules
The electrophoretic mobility of migration of different biomolecules In electrophoresis, the electrophoretic mobility determines the characteristics of migration of different biomolecules. Which of the following is not having any influence […]
