Sample Buffer, Laemmli 2× concentrate has been used as a sample buffer for denaturing and loading of protein samples in SDS-PAGE.[1][2]
Biochem/physiol Actions
Laemmli sample buffer is especially formulated for protein sample preparation to be used in the Laemmli SDS-PAGE system. A protein sample is mixed with the 2X sample buffer (1:1) and heated in boiling water for 2-5 min. The 2-mercaptoethanol reduces the intra and inter-molecular disulfide bonds. The SDS detergent denatures the proteins and subunits and gives each an overall negative charge so that each will separate based on size. The bromophenol blue serves as a dye front that runs ahead of the proteins and also serves to make it easier to see the sample during loading. The glycerol increases the density of the sample so that it will layer in the sample well.
Other Notes
Solution contains 4% SDS, 20% glycerol, 10% 2-mercaptoethanol, 0.004% bromphenol blue and 0.125 M Tris HCl, pH approx. 6.8.
Quantity
Recommended usage: add 1 volume gel loading solution to 1 volume sample and mix well.
Detection of microbial antigens in clinical samples can lead to rapid diagnosis of an infection and administration of appropriate therapeutics. A major barrier in diagnostics development is determining which of the potentially hundreds or thousands of antigens produced by a
Adipocytes express inflammatory mediators that contribute to the low-level, chronic inflammation found in obese subjects and have been linked to the onset of cardiovascular disorders and insulin resistance associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus. A reduction in inflammatory gene expression
XPF endonuclease is one of the most important DNA repair proteins. Encoded by XPF/ERCC4, XPF provides the enzymatic activity of XPF-ERCC1 heterodimer, an endonuclease that incises at the 5' side of various DNA lesions. XPF is essential for nucleotide excision
