Protein purification encompasses extraction of total protein from a sample (lysis), specific enrichment
and/or isolation of a particular protein of interest (affinity purification) and removal of ...
Protein quantitation is often necessary prior to handling protein samples for isolation and
characterization. It is a required step before submitting protein samples for chromatographic,
electrophoretic and ...
Proteins have four levels of structure. The primary structure is the sequence of its
amino acids. This sequence is always written from the amino end (N-terminus) to ...
Protein function refers to the variety of mechanisms by which proteins are activated or inactivated
in vivo. The study of protein function includes assays to detect and quantitate the activity of specific ...
The study of protein interactions has been vital to the understanding of how proteins function within
the cell. Publication of the draft sequence of the human genome and proteomics-based protein ...
