Analytical ultracentrifugation: sedimentation velocity and sedimentation equilibrium.
Analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) is a versatile and powerful method for the quantitative analysis of macromolecules in solution. AUC has broad applications for the study of biomacromolecules in a wide range of solvents and over a wide range of solute concentrations. Three optical systems are available for the analytical ultracentrifuge (absorbance, interference, and fluorescence) that permi...
متن کاملVariable-Field Analytical Ultracentrifugation: I. Time-Optimized Sedimentation Equilibrium.
Sedimentation equilibrium (SE) analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) is a gold standard for the rigorous determination of macromolecular buoyant molar masses and the thermodynamic study of reversible interactions in solution. A significant experimental drawback is the long time required to attain SE, which is usually on the order of days. We have developed a method for time-optimized SE (toSE) w...
متن کاملSedimentation Equilibrium in a Density Gradient
Sedimentation equilibrium in a density gradient has recently been developed into a reliable method for the determination of molecular weights of homogeneous DNA samples. The procedure and calibrations required for this method are outlined in this paper. In 1957, Meselson, Stahl and Vinograd' introduced a remarkable analytical technique for studying the properties of DNA and viruses. Sedimentati...
متن کامل[ 6 ] Density Gradient Sedimentation Equilibrium
In 1957, Meselson, Stahl, and Vinograd 1 introduced the remarkable technique of sedimentation equilibriuln in a density gradient for the study of the properties of high molecular weight DNA in solution. Because of the very high molecular weights of DNA, conventional sedimentation equilibrium cannot be used; for even at the lowest centrifugal fields which are practical, the force on these molecu...
متن کاملCentrifugal sedimentation of virus particles for electron microscopic counting.
Centrifuge cells with conical chambers were provided by using special inserts for the stainless-steel tubes that fit the Spinco SW-39 rotor. Particulate material, centrifuged in these cells, was collected on carbon-coated glass discs. These discs were exposed to OsO(4) vapor, dehydrated in graded alcohols, air-dried, and metal-shadowed. The metal-shadowed carbon film was floated from the glass,...
