You’ve isolated a protein and determined that the Native molecular weight of the holoenzyme is 160 kD using size exclusion chromatography. Analysis of this protein using SDS-PAGE revealed 2 bands, one at 100 kD and one at 30 kD.  The enzyme was found to be 0.829% NAD (by weight). What further can be said regarding the structure of the polypeptide?
What is the formation of glycosylated hemoglobin (the basis for the HbA1c test)? Can you describe it?
Please analze the gel electrophoresis column of the VRK1 kinase (MW: 39.71 kDa).  Also use a ruler to measure the length of the column in centimeters and calculate the MW of each band observed.
