Picture of an SDS-PAGE. The molecular markers (ladder) are in the left lane. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) is a technique widely used in biochemistry, forensic chemistry, genetics, molecular biology and biotechnology to separate biological macromolecules, usually proteins or nucleic acids, according to their electrophoretic mobility.
SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) is a discontinuous electrophoretic system developed by Ulrich K. Laemmli which is commonly used as a method to separate proteins with molecular masses between 5 and 250 kDa.
Proteins separated by SDS-PAGE, Coomassie brilliant blue staining. Protein electrophoresis is a method for analysing the proteins in a fluid or an extract. The electrophoresis may be performed with a small volume of sample in a number of alternative ways with or without a supporting medium, namely agarose or polyacrylamide.
Separate just by mass is commonly achieved using SDS-PAGE. SDS denatures the proteins, breaks apart most complexes, and approximately equalizes the mass-to-charge ratios. SDS must be done as the second, perpendicular dimension, as it breaks apart complexes (rendering native PAGE impossible) and equalizes mass-to-charge ratios (rendering IEF ...
In biochemistry and molecular biology, SDD-AGE is short for Semi-Denaturating Detergent Agarose Gel Electrophoresis. This is a method for detecting and characterizing large protein polymers which are stable in 2% SDS at room temperature, unlike most large protein complexes.
Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), a common detergent, may be found in protein extracts because it is used to lyse cells by disrupting the membrane lipid bilayer and to denature proteins for SDS-PAGE. While other detergents interfere with the assay at high concentration, the interference caused by SDS is of two different modes, and each occurs at a ...
DNA bands after electrophoresis. Discontinuous electrophoresis (colloquially disc electrophoresis [a]) is a type of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.It was developed by Ornstein and Davis.
The combination of Na[BH 4] with carboxylic acids results in the formation of acyloxyborohydride species other than sodium triacetoxyborohydride. These modified species can perform a variety of reductions not normally associated with borohydride chemistry, such as alcohols to hydrocarbons and nitriles to primary amines.
