You are trying to separate proteins using gel filtration. You know that for gel filtration resin 1, the Kav values for your proteins are 0.38, 0.41 and 0.45 while for resin 2 the values of Kav of your proteins are 0.25, 0.45 and 0.6. Which column will give you better separation of the proteins, resin 1 or resin 2, and why?

A protein was purified to homogeneity. Determination of the mass by gel-filtration chromatography yields 60 kDa. Chromatography in the presence of 6 M urea yields a 30-kDa species. When the chromatography is repeated in the presence of 6 M urea and 10 mM β-mercaptoethanol, a single molecular species of 15 kDa results. Which of the following best describes the structure of the protein? A. a dimer of 30 kDa subunits linked by disulfide bonds B. a tetramer of 15 kDa...

1. Joshua used gel filtration chromatography to purify protein Z from crude homogenate prepared from Arabidopsis plants. He noticed that protein Z appeared to have eluted from the column in two separate peaks. Using a standard curve, he calculated the MW of protein Z eluted in the first peak to be 156 KDa, and the protein Z eluted in the second peak had the apparent MW of 78 KDa. Which one do you think is the correct MW? What does...
