Electrophoretic Separation of Proteins

Abstract:
We describe here a simple, time-saving method for separating alkaline phosphatases on cellulose acetate, with a parallel detection of serum protein pattern. The staining procedure is based on a coupling reaction between the reaction product of alpha-naphthol with Fast Red Violet LB. The enzymatic reaction is done by bringing the cellulose acetate strip containing the phosphatase band into contact with the surface of a solid agar/substrate mixture. The whole procedure requires 80 min. The method has some features in common with other recently proposed procedures but is more reproducible and rapid because of the choice of the reagents and an improved yield of the coupling step.

SDS-PAGE
A variation of gel electrophoresis, termed polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), is commonly used for separating proteins according to their molecular size by passing them through a polyacrylamide gel. Because of the varying charges associated with amino acid side chains, PAGE can be used to separate intact proteins...
Western Blotting
The technique begins with separating proteins from the sample using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), followed by protein transfer, immunoblotting, and finally, protein detection.
Two-dimensional Gel Electrophoresis
The first dimension separation uses the isoelectric focusing or IEF technique performed on immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips that separate proteins according to their isoelectric points.
