Agenda: Leh. Ch. 3 (VVP Ch. 5) Working with proteins Stretch (1) 5 min. Heavy weight lifting (4) 20 min. Cool Down (1) 5 min. RS TA Worksheet #3 Monday Sep 13 th to 17 th Stretch: 1) Work in a small group and complete the table (can be done at home) Technique Protein properties Conditions for binding and elusion Ion exchange chromatography SDS-PAGE Isoelectric focusing Size-exclusion chromatography Affinity chromatography
Heavy weightlifting 2) The process for protein A purification was tracked by SDS-PAGE and activity measurements. (Complete during recitation, about 10 min) A) Using the information provided, find the specific activity and purification factor for each step. B) Which purification step was the least successful? C) Which purification step was the most successful? D) Why is it important to run an SDS-PAGE in conjunction with specific activity analysis? Procedure Total protein (mg) Activity (units) Specific activity Purification factor Homogenate 2368 3482 Salting out 1017 3356 Ion exchange chromatography 272 3046 Size-exclusion chromatography 56 2890 Affinity chromatography 6.0 2490
3) You are working as an undergraduate laboratory assistant and the postdoc in charge of the lab hands you a table with details about a protein mixture. He instructs you to return three separate vials, each containing pure fractions of the proteins. Additionally, he instructs you to only use the solutions and equipment listed below. (Hint: imidazole can bind to nickel (Ni 2+ ) very tightly) (Complete during recitation, 15min) Table: Oligopeptide pI Average M.W. NYLVDCAITGWDESALIA HHHHHHGILVNQYWPCF G RGIKPCRGIKPWRGIKPD Laboratory materials: Cation exchange chromatography column Size-exclusion chromatography column Ni 2+ affinity chromatography column Combo one: Buffer pH=6 [NaCl]= 25mM Buffer pH=6 [NaCl]= 125mM Combo two: Buffer pH=8.5 [NaCl]= 25mM Buffer pH=8.5 [NaCl]= 125mM Combo three: Buffer pH= 8.5 [NaCl]= 125mM Buffer pH= 8.5 [NaCl)= 125mM [imidazole]= 500mM List in chronological order the steps you will take to achieve separation and list which solutions and equipment you use in each.

4) Using the experimental results shown below answer the following questions (complete during recitation, 10min) a) Name the two dimensions used to separate proteins in this experiment. b) Which proteins have the exact same pI? c) Which protein have the same molecular weight? d) If you take the original protein sample used to run this gel and load it in a size- exclusion column, what would be the order of elution? 5) You wish to determine the sequence of a short peptide. (Can be completed at home using video lecture or reference to page 92, proteases) Cleavage with chymotrypsin yields three peptides with the sequences: AGKQLEDGRTLSDY, IPPDQQRLIF NIQKESTLHLVLRLRGGMQIF Cleavage of the peptide using a different enzyme, trypsin yields seven oligopeptides with the sequences: LIFAGK GGMQIF QLEDGR LR ESTLHLVLR TLSDYNIQK IPPDQQR Find the sequence of the original peptide
Cool down 6)The mass of each amino acid residue is shown below. (Can be completed at home using video lecture as a reference) Residu e Mass (D) Residue Mass (D) A 71.0 L 113.1 R 156.1 K 128.1 N 114.0 M 131.0 D 115.0 F 147.1 C 103.0 P 97.1 Q 128.1 S 87.0 E 129 T 101.0 G 57.0 W 186.1 H 137.1 Y 163.1 I 113 V 99.1 A) Explain why mass spectrometry cannot distinguish Leu and Ile? B) In mass spectrometry sequencing, not all peptide bonds are broken, if cleavage between two Gly resides does not occur, which amino acid would be identified in place of the two glycine amino acids? C) What amino acid would be identified if a bond between Ser and Val did not break? 7) What protein information can you gain from tandem mass spectrometry?
