One of the most widely used forms of gel electrophoresis is known as sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Polyacrylamide gel has several advantages that account for its extensive use. It has minimal adsorptive properties and produces a negligible electroosmotic effect (Hjelmeland and Chrambach 1981). In identity tests, for the determination of molecular weight, SDS-PAGE has been shown to be an appropriate, fast, and easy method that is often used in quality control laboratories. The use of SDS-PAGE followed by a densitometric analysis, such as MS, is a helpful technique for the determination of peptide or...

Microtubule-associated proteins bind to microtubules in vivo and subserve a number of functions including the promotion of microtubule assembly and bundling, chemomechanical force generation, and the attachment of microtubules to transport vesicles and organelles (Olmsted, 1986). Tubulin purified from brain tissue by repeated polymerization-depolymerization contains up to 20% MAPs. The latter can be dissociated from tubulin by ion-exchange chromatography. The MAPs from brain can be resolved by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). 

The protein was purified by a dialysis procedure, denatured and analysed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Western blotting indicated that the protein of interest consisted of two components, one of which increased in concentration as the purification proceeded. The authors initially suggested that this could be due to the presence of a number of species produced by modification of the amino acid side-chains, for example, by glyco-sylation, or by modification of the C- or N- terminus. 

Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) An electrophoretic technique used for the separation of proteins. 

The number of different proteins in a membrane varies from less than a dozen in the sarcoplasmic reticulum to over 100 in the plasma membrane. Most membrane proteins can be separated from one another using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), a technique that has revolutionized their study. In the absence of SDS, few membrane proteins would remain soluble during electrophoresis. Proteins are the major functional molecules of membranes and consist of enzymes, pumps and channels, structural components, antigens (eg, for histocompatibility), and receptors for various molecules. Because every membrane possesses a different complement of proteins, there is no such thing as a typical membrane structure. The enzymatic properties of several different membranes are shown in Table 41-2. 

Prokaryotic cells express hundreds to thousands of proteins while higher eukaryotes express thousands to tens of thousands of proteins at any given time. If these proteins are to be individually identified and characterized, they must be efficiently fractionated. One-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) has typically been use to study protein mixtures of <100 proteins. Onedimensional electrophoresis is useful because nearly all proteins are soluble in SDS, molecules ranging from approximately 10,000 to 300,000 molecular weight can be resolved, and extremely basic or acidic proteins can be visualized. The major disadvantage to one-dimensional gels is that they are not suitable for complex mixtures such as proteins from whole cell lysates. 

First Dimension Optimization After the second-dimension separation has been developed, the first-dimension flow rate is determined. This includes selecting a first-dimension column diameter to work at the flow rate selected. We illustrate the selection process with an application that addresses a column method for proteins that functions as a replacement for planar 2D gel electrophoresis (2DGE) within a narrow molecular weight and p/range. In the planar experiment, isoelectric focusing is performed in the first dimension and sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS/PAGE) in the second dimension. 

The boiled samples are resolved by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) using 4 to 20% polyacrylamide gels, loaded in the following order 3% input —10 fA of eluate (15% of the total volume of the boiled eluate El) —20 fA of eluate (30% E2) —3% supernatant, respectively, and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (Novex or Bio-Rad). 

Various methods have been used to examine the composition of proteins adsorbed to SAMs. Overall adsorption patterns can be examined with sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) [50, 76, 77]. Absorbed proteins are eluted from the surface with surfactant (SDS), and then separated by electrophoresis. The proteins of interest are examined by western blotting [50, 76, 77]. Protein-specific antibodies can be used to detect proteins of... 

Fig. 1.2 Protein blot analysis of human therapeutic protease inhibitor (HTPI) produced in alfalfa cell cultures using different promoters and subcellular targeting peptides as shown. Equal amounts of total soluble proteins from cell cultures were separated by sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and blotted onto a polyvinyldifluoride (PVDF) membrane. Monoclonal anti-HTPI IgGs were used for detection.

Molecular masses of the same enzymes of different species are different. Molecular mass of the laccase of Pleorotus ostreatus was found to be 66.8 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) [48]. Purified enzyme of T. versicolor having a single band with a molecular mass of 68 kDa was in the same range with the molecular weights of laccase isoforms isolated from 2,5-xylidine-induced cultures of T. versicolor [49]. 

SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) represents the most commonly used analytical technique in the assessment of final product purity (Figure 7.1). This technique is well established and easy to perform. It provides high-resolution separation of polypeptides on the basis of their molecular mass. Bands containing as little as 100 ng of protein can be visualized by staining the gel with dyes such as Coomassie blue. Subsequent gel analysis by scanning laser densitometry allows quantitative determination of the protein content of each band (thus allowing quantification of protein impurities in the product).
