pubmed-article:10068138 | pubmed:abstractText | This paper describes electromigration of complexes, consisting of two or more proteins and non-covalently associated peptides. Relatively small complexes (Mr < 1000000) can be resolved in sieving matrices. Large complexes are separated in free liquid systems. Examples of separation are given using native gels, denaturing gels and special formats thereof: blue native PAGE and gels incorporating a transversal temperature gradient. Both preparative and analytical applications are discussed as well as separations leading to mechanistic models of protein interaction. Carrier-free electrophoresis is represented by capillary zone electrophoresis, free-flow electrophoresis and density gradient electrophoresis. Emphasis is put on the free liquid separation of clathrin-coated vesicles and proteasomes. | lld:pubmed |
