- Bacterial cells are transformed to express the green fluorescent protein (GFP)
- Transformed cells are then grown and the GFP is purified by column chromatography
- The purity of the protein fractions are analyzed by SDS polyacrylamide electrophoresis
Experiment times:
- Module I: Transformation, 45 minutes
- Module II: Isolation of GFP, 45 minutes
- Module III: Purification of GFP by Chromatography, 45 minutes
- Module IV: Analysis by GFP by Denaturing SDS Gel Electrophoresis, one hour
Order Info
