What are two ways to measure the total amount of all proteins in a purification sample? O 1) Calculating the yield and 2) calculating the purity of a purification. O 1) Measuring absorbance at 280 nm and 2) using an enzymatic assay for your protein of interest. O 1) Quantitating the amount of your protein of interest using binding of a labeled antibody (e.g.. an ELISA) and 2) using a dye-binding assay.

macollege.instructure.com/courses/352/pages/covid-proteins-lab-manual?module_item_id=D44333 A = abc Where "A" is absorbance, "a" is molar absorptivity, "b" is the path length (length of the cuvette in units of cm), and "c" is concentration (mol/L). The molar absorptivity is an intrinsic property of a molecule which tells us how intensely it will absorb at a particular wavelength. If "A" is a unitless quantity, "b" is in units of cm, and "c" is in units of mol/L, then what are the units of molar absorptivity? Do a little research to learn how alpha-helices and beta-sheets are drawn in protein structures. If most of the absorption properties are coming from the alpha-helices in these proteins, and many alpha-helices have similar absorbance properties across different proteins, which protein would you predict would have the highest molar absorptivity? Your job is to use the following data table to determine the molar absorptivity for each of the following proteins at their respective…

The denaturing of proteins occurs when the stabilizing forces are altered. Below is the set of processes in which proteins are denatured. Classify the following processes according to the denaturing agent involved. Please help me understand the diff and correct any mistakes.
Question 2. While internal cysteine amino acid sidechains in proteins undergo oxidation to produce disulfide crosslinks that stabilize the protein structure after folding, solvent-exposed cysteine sidechains can remain in their reduced thiol form and serve as reactive nucleophiles (recall for instance Acyl Carrier Proteins involved in fatty acid biosynthesis or various oxidoreductase enzymes). The reactive thiol groups in proteins can be detected using Ellman's test, wherein the protein is reacted with a disulfide Ellman's reagent to form a new mixed disulfide and a 2-nitro-5-thiobenzoate (TNB) byproduct. Upon addition of base, TNB is deprotonated to form a dianion, which absorbs light in the visible region and can be detected using UV-Vis spectroscopy.

About a decade ago, it was more common to use peptide mass mapping to identify a protein cut from a gel. Peptide mass mapping involves digesting the protein with trypsin and then measuring the peptide masses using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The more superior method of identifying a protein from a gel is to digest the protein with trypsin and then use liquid chromatography to separate the peptides. The separated peptides are then electrosprayed into a tandem mass spectrometer. The MS-MS data is uploaded into a database such as MASCOT for protein identification. Explain why the LC-MS-MS method is superior to the peptide mass mapping method.
