Y-dependent polypeptides identified by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of monozygotic X0 and XY fibroblasts
Human Genetics
|January 1, 1984
Abstract:
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis analysis of X0 and XY fibroblasts from a monozygotic twin pair reveals two Y-dependent polypeptides. The polypeptides have molecular weights and isoelectric points of 38,000/6.3 and 30,000/5.4 and are designated as Y-38 and Y-30.

Polytene Chromosomes
Polytene chromosomes are giant interphase chromosomes with several DNA strands placed side by side. They were discovered in the year 1881 by Balbiani in salivary glands, intestine, muscles, malpighian tubules, and hypoderm of larvae Chironomus plumosus. Hence, these are also called "Salivary gland chromosomes." These are found in insects of the order Diptera and Collembola; in certain organs of mammals; and synergids, antipodes of flowering plants. Polytene chromosomes are also regularly...
Two-dimensional Gel Electrophoresis
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis is a high-resolution protein separation method first introduced by O' Farrell and Klose in 1975. This method involves protein separation by two dimensions, mass and charge, making it more accurate than one-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.
Biological samples, such as cells...
