Analysis of protein post-translational modifications using DIGE-based proteomics Robert M. DeKroon‚ Jennifer B. Robinette‚ Cristina Osorio‚ Sun Yong Jeong‚ Eric Hamlett‚ Mihaela Mocanu and Oscar Alzate Summary Difference gel electrophoresis (DIGE) is most often used to assess relative changes in the expression levels of individual proteins in multiple complex samples‚ and this information is valuable in making inferences about relative protein activity. However‚ a protein‟s activity is not

Describe how Bacteria decode its genetic information to produce proteins? Intro(10mins) Bacteria belongs to a group of organism that lacks cell nucleus and membrane bound organells. This group of organisms are termed as prokaryotes. Prokaryotes follows the central dogma of molecular biology first proposed by Francis Crick in 1958 to synthesize proteins from mRNA through a process called translation and the mRNA is being synthesized from the DNA by another process called Transcription.

The Spectrophotometer Determination Of Protein Concentrations And The Effects Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate And Triton X-100 Have On Protein Concentration. INTRODUCTION Spectroscopy is used as a collective term for all the analytical techniques based on the interaction of light and matter. Spectrophotometry is one of the branches of spectroscopy where we measure the absorption of light by molecules that are in a gas or vapour state or dissolved molecules/ions (Tombs‚ et.al‚ 1959). Spectroscopy is the

Experiment 2 Quantification of Proteins in Solution by Spectrophotometer Lab bench# 1 Introduction: Absorption spectroscopy is a common method for finding the concentration of proteins or protein complexes in a solution. Proteins absorb light at specific wavelengths and can be defined by the equation A = log (Io/I). This equation states that an absorbance at a specific wavelength‚ A is equal to the log of the ratio of incident light intensity (Io)‚ to transmitted light intensity (I). A

WHAT I KNOW 13.1 What is RNA? 13.2 How do cells make proteins? 13.3 What happens when a cell’s DNA changes? 13.4 How do cells regulate gene expression? WHAT I LEARNED SAMPLE ANSWER: RNA is a nucleic acid that carries coded genetic information. SAMPLE ANSWER: SAMPLE ANSWER: The bases in DNA—A‚ T‚ G‚ and C—form a four-letter “alphabet” that

depending on the way the introns are removed‚ and if there are different amino acids produced during translation in the ribosome‚ then there will be unique proteins created‚ too. This allows there to be more types of proteins in an organism than types of genes in an organism’s genome. Repressor proteins can influence the regulation of protein synthesis by binding to operators (the segments of DNA that act as switches to either allow or prohibit RNA polymerase to create mRNA strands) in an operon. Since

Biochemistry of Proteins; Isolation of Ovalbumin and Enumeration of thiol groups Abstract Thiol groups are important to protein folding and forming disulphide bonds that are essential to protein structure. Determining the number of thiol groups in a protein is important in determining the tertiary structure of the protein. The ovalbumin is the experiment was purified from egg white using centrifugation and ammonium sulphate precipitation and then the thiol groups identified using DTNB and spectroscopy

Proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids‚ just a chain of ami. tacids makes up the primary structure. The secondary structure is formed by hydrogen bonds joining the chains in certain places to make an alpha helix or a beta sheet. The tertiary structure is formed by even more folding and joining of the chains to make a globular mass or fibrous mass. An example of this would be a carrier protein. Proteins are needed for many things they are needed in our diet for growth and repair of cells
