An SDS–PAGE Examination of Protein Quaternary Structure and Disulfide Bonding for a Biochemistry Laboratory Jennifer L. Powers, Carla S. Andrews, Caroline C. St. Antoine, Swapan S. Jain, and Vicky L. H. Bevilacqua
In this experiment, students use sodium dodecyl sulfatepolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDSPAGE) and -mercaptoethanol (ME) to determine preliminary information about protein quaternary structure. This experiment gives students a better understanding of protein subunit composition and the forces responsible for the stability of quaternary structure. The experiment can be accomplished in one three-hour laboratory period.
