Hi everyone,

I am working with a membrane protein. Fractionation involves a centrifugation step at 100 000 g for 1 hour. However, the pellet after centrifugation is so resilient to resuspension.

Can anyone suggest a good way to resuspend a membrane protein pellet after high speed spin?
Thanks inadvance

Hi

Use mild denaturing agents Like Urea or GuCl in less conecntrations to solubilize the preoteins. Dialyse if possible
