3 2D Gel Electrophoresis Simultaneous separation and detection of ~2000 proteins on a 20x25 cm gel Up to 10,000 proteins can be seen using optimized protocols Lecture 1.3

4 Why 2D GE? Oldest method for large scale protein separation (since 1975) Still most popular method for protein display and quantification Permits simultaneous detection, display, purification, identification, quantification Robust, increasingly reproducible, simple, cost effective, scalable & parallelizable Provides pI, MW, quantity Lecture 1.3

6 Steps in 2D GE Lecture 1.3

7 Sample Preparation Sample preparation is key to successful 2D gel experiments Must break all non-covelent protein-protein, protein-DNA, protein-lipid interactions, disrupt S-S bonds Must prevent proteolysis, accidental phosphorylation, oxidation, cleavage, deamidation Lecture 1.3

Lecture 1.3

20 Isoelectric Focusing Separation of basis of pI, not Mw
Requires very high voltages (5000V) Requires a long period of time (10h) Presence of a pH gradient is critical Degree of resolution determined by slope of pH gradient and electric field strength Uses ampholytes to establish pH gradient Lecture 1.3

21 Ampholytes vs. IPG Ampholytes are small, soluble, organic molecules with high buffering capacity near their pI (not characterized) Used to create pH gradients via user Gradients not stable Batch-to-batch variation is problematic An immobilized pH gradient (IPG) is made by covalently integrating acrylamido buffer molecules into acrylamide matrix at time of gel casting Stable gradients Pre-made (at factory) Simplified handling Lecture 1.3

32 SDS-PAGE Separation of basis of MW, not pI
Requires modest voltages (200V) Requires a shorter period of time (2h) Presence of SDS is critical to disrupting structure and making mobility ~ 1/MW Degree of resolution determined by %acrylamide & electric field strength Lecture 1.3

33 SDS-PAGE for 2D GE After IEF, the IPG strip is soaked in an equilibration buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 8.8, 2% SDS, 6M Urea, 30% glycerol, DTT, tracking dye) IPG strip is then placed on top of pre-cast SDS-PAGE gel and electric current applied This is equivalent to pipetting samples into SDS-PAGE wells (an infinite #) Lecture 1.3
