background: detecting bence-jones protein in urine is essential for determining plasma cell dyscrasia and multiple myeloma. conventionally, acid-heat precipitation assay is used for detecting bence-jones protein in most medical laboratories; however, because of the low accuracy of this test, other more sensitive tests like urine electrophoresis are recommended.  materials and methods: in this s...

Monoclonal antibodies against the porcine 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 receptor were immobilized on Sepharose CL-4B and used to obtain a highly purified 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 receptor fraction with a 45% recovery of the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 binding capacity. The porcine receptor was purified to homogeneity by preparative electrophoresis and digested in sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide g...

A rapid and convenient method for peptide mapping of proteins has been developed. The technique, which is especially suitable for analysis of proteins that have been isolated from gels containg sodium dodecyl sulfate, involves partial enzymatic proteolysis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and analysis of the cleavage products by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The pattern of peptid...

Membrane immunoglobulin (Ig) of splenocytes and thymocytes of the goldfish, Carassius auratus, was demonstrated by indirect fluorescent-antibody techniques. Observations on shedding and resynthesis indicated that the thymocyte Ig was endogenously produced. The lymphocyte surface proteins were radioiodinated using the lactoperoxidase-catalyzed reaction, and the labeled Ig molecules were isolated...

We have purified the membrane-intrinsic glycerol3-phosphate dehydrogenase from both normal and hyperthyroid rat liver mitochondria by extraction with Triton X-100, hydrophobic affinity chromatography, ion exchange chromatography, gel filtration, and FAD-linked Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography. The yields in both cases were over 20‘70, and purification ranged from 800to 650-fold in mitocho...

this study was conducted to investigate the effect of physical and chemical processing on crude protein fractions of two varieties of canola (okapi and modena) and safflower (62 and zarfan) seed using cornel net carbohydrate and protein system and on protein subunits using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. formaldehyde was used as chemical treatment, while toasting and ...

Volume 1 • Issue 7 • 1000e125 Biochem Anal Biochem ISSN:2161-1009 Biochem, an open access journal Electrophoresis is one of the research techniques, which has extensively been used in separation and identification of proteins/ enzymes. In majority of the biochemistry and molecular biology experiments, electrophoresis of proteins and enzymes is performed using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis ...

background: alkyl hydroperoxide reductase (ahpc) of helicobacter pylori is considered as a diagnostic antigen. there­fore, this antigen can be used to detect h. pylori infection by stool immunoassays such as elisa. the aim of this study was to simplify the ahpc protein purification procedures. methods: for whole cell protein extraction, the bacterial cells were ruptured by octly-β-d glucopyrano...

Total poly(A)-containing mRNA was isolated from the MOPC-315 and MOPC-315 NR plasmacytomas. The RNA was further fractionated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-sucrose gradients. The MOPC-315 mRNA fractions directed the synthesis of both the heavy chain and light chain precursor of the MOPC-315 IgA protein in a cell-free extract of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells. None of the MOPC-315 NR mRNA fractions test...
