Mouse lymphocyte H-2 and Ia glycoproteins have been analyzed with a two-dimensional (2-D) acrylamide gel electrophoresis technique, in which proteins are separated first according to their charge in isoelectrofocusing gels and then according to their size in sodium dodecyl sulfate gels. Individual polypeptide chains from radiolabeled cells are resolved as discrete spots on autoradiograms of the...

Blue native polyacryamide gel electrophoresis is a special case of native electrophoresis for high resolution separation of enzymatically active protein complexes from tissue homogenates and cell fractions. The method is powerful between 10 and 10,000 kDa. Also membrane protein complexes are separated well after solubilization of complexes with mild neutral detergents. The separation principle ...
