Introduction:

Chemically, lipids are long chains of carbon and hydrogen that are a major component of living cells, for example, a cell membrane is made up of a lipid bilayer. Lipids are hydrophobic molecules, that is, they are not soluble in water. These molecules are soluble in solvents like chloroform or ether.

9) Below, there is a representation of an SDS-PAGE gel. Assuming the samples in the MW standard have masses of: 66 kDa, 45 kDa, 36 kDa, 29 kDa, 24 kDa, 20.1 kDa, and 14.2 kDa, a) Figure 4: indicate where each of the measurements were taken and label as in II.6. figure 2 above. b) As in II.7. Table 1 above create Table 2 using the data below. Determine the r.f. values for the MW standards, plot the relative mobility versus the log of the mass for the standards, and use the best fit straight line to determine the molecular weights of the proteins in the whey, peak 1, and peak 2 lanes. (5 pts—this will be scaled up appropriately if your gel did not develop properly) dye MW Whey Peak 1 Peak 2
