Course content
|
Purification of proteins - precipitation with salts and organic solvents, dialysis followed by chromatographic purification. Chromatographic methods in Biochemistry - separation of proteins using gel chromatography, ionex chromatography, and affinity chromatography. DNA isolation and analysis - Isolation of plasmid DNA, chromosomal DNA, measurement of DNA concentration, measurement of DNA concentration in microvolumes, agarose gel electrophoresis of DNA. Methods for protein concentration determination - quantification of proteins using the Lowry method, biuret method, Bradford method, direct determination of protein concentration, direct determination of protein concentration in microvolumes. Enzyme kinetics - kinetic parameters of protein cleavage by trypsin, kinetic parameters of hydrogen peroxide cleavage by catalase, kinetic parameters of peroxidase reaction. SDS-PAGE of proteins - electrophoretic separation of proteins in polyacrylamide gels of different concentrations, staining of the separated proteins using the CBB dye.
