Size Exclusion Chromatography Lab Report

535 Words3 Pages

The purpose of this experiment is to analyze and identify specific proteins from a mixture of proteins using the purify technique of size exclusion chromatography. The use of size exclusion chromatography also called Gel filtration allows to separate proteins according to size (molecular weight) and shape. The idea of separating molecules base of the physical sizes depends on the stationary phase and the mobile phase. Selecting the appropriate stationary phase and mobile phase is vital to obtain successful separations. Stationary phase is made of microscopic beads which consist of a cross-linked polysaccharide which forms porous beads or bead-like matrix that is packed into a column. Mobile phase is a solvent, normally consists of a buffer, …show more content…

Smaller molecules can diffuse into the beads and move more slowly down the column. The process of extracting one material from another by washing with a solvent is called elution; they are three ways isocratic elution, gradient elution, and stepwise elution. In this experiment the process of isocratic elution will be uses, where the same mobile phase is used throughout the elution and allows separation of molecules that differ significantly in size. By varying the degree of cross-linking the gels are optimized for different molecular weight ranges.The purpose of this experiment is to analyze and identify specific proteins from a mixture of proteins using the purify technique of size exclusion chromatography.

Allowed the gel to cool for 1-2 minutes. Poured 100 mL of 2% agarose solution into the gel tray and allow to solidify for 20-30 minutes at room temperature. The comb was removed from the gel to expose the sample wells then placed in the electrophoresis chamber. Enough of the 1X TAE electrophoresis buffer was added to the chamber to completely cover the gel. Using a micropipette, 10 L of the PCR product was loaded into the sample well.

The secondary antibody (anti-rabbit HRP labelled) used is conjugated with an enzyme Horse radish peroxidase which then binds to its substrate tetramethyl-benzidine (TMB) to produce a blue color indicating the presence of lysozyme. SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis is a process which separates proteins based on molecular weight. The purpose of this method is to separate out the lysozyme by its weight. The weight is known to be 14.6Da. To view the protein separation, the gel was placed into coomassie blue to develop a series of bands to detect the protein by its

• Molecular weights of protein bands in each of the three unknown samples B, C, and D were determined using the standard curve. On the Y-axis, the corresponding migration distance (cm) was found and traced to meet the line of the standard curve. This point was then traced to meet the corresponding place on the x-axis, in which molecular weight of known samples were plotted.

Thin Layer Chromatography

Chromatography means of separating and tentatively identifying the components of a mixture. Gas chromatography separates mixtures on the basis of their distribution between a stationary liquid phase and a mobile has phase. In GC, the moving phase is actually a gas called carrier gas, which flows through a column. The stationary phase is a thin film of liquid contained within the column. After a mixture has traversed the length of the column, it emerges separated into its components.

Quantification and trypsin digestion of polypeptides Protein concentration was estimated by Bradford assay, and 100µg of total protein from each sample was subjected to in-solution trypsin digestion to generate peptides. Initially, treating the sample with 5µl of 100mM dithiothreitol in 50 mM ammonium bicarbonate for 30 min at 60ºC and alkylation with 200mM iodoacetamide in 50 mM ammonium bicarbonate at room temperature for 30 minutes reduced the protein disulphide bonds. Proteins were then digested with 4µg of sequencing grade-modified trypsin (Sigma) in 50 mM ammonium bicarbonate by incubating overnight at 37ºC. The trypsin digestion reaction was stopped by 1µl of 100% formic acid. The digested peptide solutions were centrifuged at 14000

The molecular weight of this glycoprotein is about 65,000. This protein is similar to the conglycinin from soy proteins with the major IgE epitopes within this extension region. Ara h 1 is a protein with high thermal stability but showed minor structural changes in 5M urea. It has also been observed that few of the IgE binding epitopes of Ara h1 are resistant to pepsin degradation [22].

The process called protein quality control happened in the endoplasmic reticulum. This process is careful monitor to bind a sophisticated a quality control system[16]. The goal of this system is to identify and disjoint any proteins that are potentially problematic. And this appeared to be a critical process especially for multicellular microorganism that have a very long lifespan because if there is any defecation process the accumulation of misfolded protein would be accumulate to a detrimental level that impair of the wild ability of the organism. Because of that, quite often even wild type of proteins can be mistreated as misfolded of protein and get degraded and this simply because they make folds just a little slowly or entered to unfold

Agarose Gel Electrophoresis Case Study

[1] Agarose gel electrophoresis separates molecules based on their size, shape, and charge. Within the gel exist pores which the molecules must move through in order to reach the positively or negatively charged electrode. Molecules that are large in size will move at a slower rate than that of those smaller in size. Molecules with the same molecular weight may move at different rates as well. If one has a denser shape, it will move faster through the pores in the agarose.

For this reason the DNA is denatured into single strands by incubation with sodium hydroxide solution (NaOH). If the DNA fragments are larger than 15kb, the gel can be treated with acid such as dilute HCl prior to blotting. The DNA is depurinated by the acid and breaks down into smaller pieces which allows more efficient transfer from the gel to the membrane. The Southern Blot Method begins with the DNA fragments being transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane.
