You have a mixture of proteins with the following properties, using a cation exchange column, what would be the order of elution for the following mixture of proteins

MW pHI

A. 85,000 7.0

B. 65,000 6.2

C. 35,000 9.5

Expert Solution

Cation exchange columns are the reverse, negatively charged beads which attract positively charged proteins. If the functional group is negatively charged (e.g. a carboxylate group), they bind positively charged molecules (cation exchange).

pH < 7 will have a net positive charge due to protonation, pH = 7 being neutral zwitterionic type(isoelectric point pl), whereas pH > 7 will have a net negative charge.

Hence the order of elution will be

C. 35,000 9.5 -------> A. 85,000 7.0 ----> B. 65,000 6.2

First eluted --------> second elution -----> last elution

You have mixture of proteins with the following properties. Which of these proteins would be eluted last from an anion-exchange column when the column is developed with 1.0M NaCl in pH 7.0 buffer. Note, that the anion-exchange column was equilibrated with the pH 7.0 buffer before use. A. MW = 18,500, pI = 10.2 B. MW = 28,000, pI = 7.0 C. MW = 62,000, pI = 3.9 CORRECT ANSWER D. MW = 9,000, pI = 5.8 E. MW =...

A mixture of three proteins shown below was applied to an ion-exchange column with CM-Sepharose as the stationary phase. Predict the order of elution of the proteins at neutral pH, assuming that the mixture was applied at low ionic strength and eluted with buffers of increasing ionic strength. Explain. Cytochrome c (12.0 kDa, pI = 10.6) Phosphofructokinase 1 (34.1 kDa, pI = 6.64) Bovine serum albumin (66.5 kDa, pI = 4.70)

. In what order will the following amino acids elute from a Dowex-50 cation exchange column at pH 3.2: alanine (pI = 6.02); arginine (pI = 10.76); glutamate (pI = 3.22); serine (pI = 5.68); and tryptophan (pI = 5.88)? (Ignore the polarity characteristics of the side-chains).   Wouldnt the basic ones bind and the acidic one (glu) elute off first??

Using a cation exchange resin, a mixture of four amino acids, Asp (pKa 3.9), Arg (pKa 12.5), Ser (pKa 13) and Lys(pKa 10.5) are separated using an elution gradient of increasing NaCl solution. What would be the correct elution sequence? Explain your reasoning. Draw the chromatogram would look like for this mixture if there was twice as much Asp and Arg in the sample than Ser and Lys.

Cation-exchange chromatography is a popular technique for separating and purifying proteins. This is very similar to the separation purification of the mixture of amino acids you observed in Prac 3. You are asked to purify an enzyme with a pI of 6.5 from a mixture of different proteins You are provided with the following: • A column packed with cation-exchange resin • Phosphate buffer at pH 2.6 • Citrate buffer at pH 3.4 • Tris-HCl buffer at pH 8.2 •...

1). A mixture of proteins was seperated on a sizing column. one 2ML fraction has two proteins left in it,and the technician wants to run an ion-exchange coloumn. First, he or she has to dialyze it into the appropriate buffer. how much ion-exchange buffer is needed for dialysis? 2). A technician sets up a negatively charged ion-exchange column and puts a small volume of a mixture of the proteins on it. what should happen to positively charged proteins in the...
