Hi.
Before I ask, i want to explain one by one so that people that reading my post will not get confuse
i'm working with Adh1 from eukaryotes, and i expressed it in BL21 (DE3).
I think BL21 (DE3) had successfully expressed my gene because there are extra band on SDS-PAGE (my control is BL21 carrying pET-41a(+)).
I extract the total protein by using sample buffer that contain SDS, Tris-HCl, glycerol, deionized water. after I pelleted the cell, i will resuspended it with sample buffer, heat at 95 degree and vortex it vigorously.
my wonder now is, although I treat it "harsh", seems like the SDS did not lysed my cell completely. I try to add some more of sample buffer, but still...the cell extract looked cloudy. If the lysis is complete, the cell extract should be look translucent right?-correct me if i'm wrong.
I did an expression of Adh gene in BL21 (DE3). I purified the protein using histidine tag column. Then, I run the total protein and also purified Adh protein in same SDS PAGE gel. BUT, the purified histidine tagged protein has a quite larger size than expected size. anyone can explain why this happen?Is it tagged recombinant protein has different mobility? anyone can explain this to me?
