Concept explainers
(a)
To explain: The approximate molecular masses of an immunoglobulin G molecule analyzed by gel filtration chromatography.
Concept introduction: The sum of atomic weights of all atoms in a molecule substance is called the molecular mass. The weight of the molecule is the relative molecular mass of the molecule. The molecular weight is measured in terms of atomic mass units. Immunoglobulins are the proteins that are part of the immune system found on the surface of the cell and aid to elicit the immune response.
(b)
To explain: The approximate molecular masses of an immunoglobulin G molecule analyzed by SDS-PAGE.
Concept introduction: The sum of atomic weights of all atoms in a molecule substance is called the molecular mass. The weight of the molecule is the relative molecular mass of the molecule. The molecular weight is measured in terms of atomic mass units. Immunoglobulins are the proteins that are part of the immune system found on the surface of the cell and aid to elicit the immune response.
(c)
To explain: The approximate molecular masses of an immunoglobulin G molecule analyzed by SDS-PAGE in the presence of 2-mercaptoethanol.
Concept introduction: The sum of atomic weights of all atoms in a molecule substance is called the molecular mass. The weight of the molecule is the relative molecular mass of the molecule. The molecular weight is measured in terms of atomic mass units. Immunoglobulins are the proteins that are part of the immune system found on the surface of the cell and aid to elicit the immune response.
