Which of the following statements is not true about SDS-PAGE: - answerProteins are
separated based on their size, shape and electric charge at a given pH.
Which of the following statements about affinity chromatography is not true: - answerIn
metal chelate affinity chromatography, the matrix contains metal ions ligands (like Zn2+
, or Ni2+) so that proteins bearing metal-chelating groups (e.g., multiple His side chains)
can be retained.
The stronger the interaction between the ligand and the protein, the better the result of
the affinity purification.
The bound protein can be eluted by washing the column with a solution containing a
high concentration of free ligand or a solution of different pH or ionic strength.
ANSWER: It is a very effective means of separation because one can "fish out" the
target protein from a mixture of several proteins by exploiting its unique biochemical
affinity for the ligand.
A molecule (a ligand) that specifically binds to the protein of interest (e.g., a non-
reactive analog of an enzyme's substrate) is covalently attached to an inert matrix.
