Lab #6: SDS-PAGE

Introduction
Electrophoresis, which requires proteins to be denatured to only form primary structure,
is simple lab technique that separates molecules such as proteins or nucleic acids to determine
the rate of migration of those proteins. The rate depends on the molecule’s size, shape and net
charge. SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) is the most
common type of electrophoresis used in lab, which separates proteins based on their molecular
weight. For the proteins to be denatured, they are treated with SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate – an
anionic detergent that unfolds the proteins), and BME (beta-mercaptoethanol – a strong reducing
agent that breaks disulfide bonds).
In this experiment, electrophoresis is performed using standard proteins of known
molecular weights as a “ladder” to determine the molecular weight of the unknown protein,
which is electrophoresed in the lanes next to the ladder.
