SDS-PAGE uses molecular weight differences to separate different proteins
Gel electrophoresis is a common technique for separating proteins of different molecular weight. But, how does it work? Basically, the method known as sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) uses the effect of a constant applied electric field to induce movement of negatively charged proteins across a polyacrylamide gel. Specifically, the proteins are first … More SDS-PAGE uses molecular weight differences to separate different proteins
