E-book on recombinant protein expression

20 December 2012 - 11:37 AM

Hi everyone:

A Research topic and e-book about "Recombinant protein expression in microbial systems" is in the works. They're welcoming any type of work on the field.

Disc SDS PAGE on Multiphor II system

07 December 2012 - 01:05 PM

Hi,

We'be trying to run discontinuous SDS-PAGE gels on a semi-dry flatbed system (Multiphor II from GE). As proposed in the book Electrophoresis in Practice, we used:

Cathodal and anodal Buffer: Laemmli Buffer 5X
Stacking Gel: Tris-HCl 1.25M pH 6.7 / 0.1% SDS
Resolving gel: 12% homogeneous, Tris pH 8.8 like a vertical gel
Power settings: 600V, 50 mA, 22 W, 15 C

It was a complete mess, it took more than 8 h to run. Several bands turned yellow and stopped running down the gel. We tried lowering Tris to 0.125M like a normal vertical gel but the samples were not resolved at all (the MW standard looked OKish).

As everyone, we use the vertical format system for SDS-PAGE, but we were trying to do SDS-PAGE in the Multiphor so that we would have enough practice before doing 2D gels.

Has anyone tried this protocol?

I hope 2D gels are easier...!
