In SDS PAGE of protein molecule separation, one SDS molecule will bind to
(a) Every amino acid
(b) Every two amino acids
(c) Every three amino acids
(d) Every four amino acids
(b) Every two amino acids ✅
Explanation:
In SDS-PAGE (Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis), SDS (Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate) binds to proteins in a ratio of approximately 1.4 g SDS per 1 g of protein, which translates to one SDS molecule binding to roughly every two amino acids.
Why is SDS Binding Important?
- Denaturation: SDS disrupts non-covalent interactions, unfolding proteins into linear polypeptides.
- Uniform negative charge: SDS imparts a consistent negative charge-to-mass ratio, ensuring that protein migration in the gel is based on size (molecular weight) rather than charge.
Why not the other options?
- (a) Every amino acid → Overestimates SDS binding; SDS binds at a lower frequency.
- (c) Every three amino acids → Underestimates the actual binding ratio.
- (d) Every four amino acids → Significantly underestimates the SDS binding rate.
Thus, the correct answer is (b) Every two amino acids. ✅
