Chapter 12, Problem 14P

(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: A strategy which is used for purifying acetylcholine receptor (AChR) using α-bungarotoxin which is covalently bound to chromatography beads.

Introduction:

Chromatography is defined as a biochemical technique which is used for the separation of biomolecules. The biomolecules are separated between two phases such as mobile liquid phase and stationary phase.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: A strategy used for [¹²⁵I] α-bungarotoxin to purify the AchR protein.

Introduction:

Chromatography is a biochemical technique used for the separation of biomolecules such as amino acids, fat molecules, and other pigments. The biomolecules are separated between two phases such as mobile liquid phase and stationary phase.
