Question
Chapter 3, Problem 10P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The size of a protein having an electrophoretic mobility of 0.62 units should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The electrophoresis is technique, by which the biological molecule or fragmented biological molecules are separated on the basis of their size. The SDS gel electrophoresis is a technique, in which the SDS coated protein are run on the gel plate to separate the proteins.

A protein has a molecular mass of 400 kDa when measured by size-exclusion chromatography ( F). When subjected to gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), the protein gives three bands with molecular masses of 180, 160, and 60 kDa. When electrophoresis is carried out in the presence of SDS and dithiothreitol (=), three bands are again formed, this time with molecular masses of 160, 90, and 60 kDa.

Determinationof the masses of several peptide fragments has enabled youto deduce the identity of the protein. However, there is adiscrepancy with one of the peptide fragments, whichyou believe should have the sequence MLNSFK and an(M 1 H)1 value of 739.38. In your experiments, yourepeat edly obtain an (M 1 H)1 value of 767.38.

Your lab mate tells you that the affinity columns for this type of tagged protein are very similar to that of Histadine tagged proteins.

A large amount of glutathione is usually used to elute the tagged protein off the column. How might this work?arrow_forward
