Compare and contrast the following protein characterization techniques in terms of the principles governing their functions. affinity chomotagraphy vs hydrophobic interaction chromatography
Consider the following protein mixture: Protein A B C D Molecular Weight (kDa) 50 150 200 350 Affinity to Metal ion === Zn²+ === 1. Using hydrophobic interaction chromatography, the protein that will be eluted last is [Select] 2. Using affinity chromatography, the protein that will be eluted last in a Zn²+-containing column is 3. The protein with the fastest migration towards the anode in SDS-PAGE is [Select] IpH value 7 3 9 5 [Select] [Select] 4. Using a buffer solution with a pH of 4, the protein that will bind to an anion exchanger is 5. The protein that will be eluted last in a gel filtration column is [Select] 6. Using isoelectric focusing, the protein that will have a protein band nearest to the cathode (negative electrode) is [Select] % Hydrophobicity 20 45 75 55
You are given an equimolar (0.10 mM) mixture of Ubiquitin protein that is free/pure of any other macromolecules (e.g. nucleic acids) in a pH 7.0 phosphate buffer How can you purify Ubiquitin? Propose a 2-step minimum plan to purify their protein. Basic rules: Affinity chromatography (e.g. His Tag purification) is not an allowed step because these proteins are in their native state (i.e. – do not have a polyhistidine tag). Also, you are not allowed to rely solely on the color of certain proteins (e.g. cytochrome C and GFP) in your characterization/proposal. You are allowed to buffer exchange (i.e. – switch buffers) but try to keep your pH’s in a reasonable range (5.5 – 8.5) or you risk denaturing your protein! Assume you can only separate proteins under 50.0 kDa with a 5.0 kDa difference using SEC. Otherwise, assume proteins greater than 50.0 kDa are unable to be separated. Assume proteins with the same charge (positive or negative) are not easily separated using IEC. Assume all…
A protein was purified to homogeneity. Determination of the mass by gel-filtration chromatography yields 60 kDa . Chromatography in the presence of 6 M urea yields a 30-kDa species. When the chromatography is repeated in the presence of 6 M urea and 10 mM β - mercaptoethanol , a single molecular species of 15 kDa results. Describe the structure of the molecule.

The concentration of protein in a solution can be determined via UV spectroscopy and colorimetry* techniques. Explain further on the statement, give examples of the techniques (please provide three examples for the colorimetry), general principles/mechanism, and general procedures of the techniques. You may use a Table to present the answer. If you need to choose a technique to measure your protein sample, what would be your choice? Justify your answer.
A protein was purified to homogeneity. Determination of the mass by gel filtration chromatography yields 60 kd. Chromatography in the presence of the denaturing agent, 6 M urea, yields a 30 kd species. When the chromatography is repeated in the presence of 6 M urea and DTT, a single molecular species of 15 kd results. Describe what these experiments tell you about the structure of the proteins.
