Practice question
Question
In SDS-PAGE the movement of proteins is from:
Explanation
SDS PAGE separates proteins by molecular weight after denaturing SDS binds uniformly imparting negative charge proportional to length. Under electric field, SDS-protein complexes migrate from negative cathode toward positive anode through polyacrylamide matrix, smaller proteins traveling farther. Migration distance inversely correlates with log molecular weight for estimation.
