Polyacrylamide Gel Affinity Electrophoresis for Separation of Enzyme Isoforms

Separation of a phosphorylated histidine protein using phosphate affinity polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Separation of radiolabelled glycosaminoglycan oligosaccharides by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis.

Glycosaminoglycan oligosaccharides generated by treatment of biosynthetically radiolabelled dermatan sulphate and hyaluronic acid with chondroitin AC lyase or testicular hyaluronidase may be resolved into a series of discrete bands by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Bands were identified by fixation in glacial acetic acid containing 20% (w/v) 2,5-diphenyloxazole followed by fluorography. Th...

Label-free kinase profiling using phosphate affinity polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Herein we describe three applications of label-free kinase profiling using a novel type of phosphate affinity polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The phosphate affinity site is a polyacrylamide-bound dinuclear Mn2+ complex that enables the mobility shift detection of phosphorylated proteins from their nonphosphorylated counterpart. The first application is in vitro kinase activity profiling for...

Separation of ten reovirus genome segments by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Double-stranded ribonucleic acid (RNA) extracted from purified reoviruses of all three serotypes and from type 3 virus-infected cells was analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It was calculated that each RNA includes 10 segments: 3 large, 3 intermediate, and 4 small fragments corresponding to molecular weights of about 2.5, 1.4, and 0.8 x 10(6) daltons, respectively, or a total of 15 ...

Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis

Polyacrylamide gels are typically formed by polymerization of the monomer acrylamide crosslinked to the co-monomer, N,N’-methylenebis-acrylamide, commonly called BIS. This process is a freeradical polymerization that requires an initiator, usually ammonium persulfate, and a catalyst like N,N,N’,N’-tetraethylmethylenediamine (TEMED). A distinct advantage of polyacrylamide gel systems is that by ...
