In this experiment, students actually purify the restriction enzyme, Eco RI. This procedure utilizes an ion exchange chromatography step for Eco RI purification.
- Column fractions are assayed for the enzyme using Lambda DNA and digestion products are identified by agarose gel electrophoresis
- Fractions that contain Eco RI are identified and pooled
- Total and specific activities are calculated
- Recommended for college level courses
Experiment times:
- Packing column, 45 minutes
- Restriction analysis A, 35 minutes
- Restriction analysis B, 50 minutes
- Gel Prep, 30 minutes
- Electrophoresis, 30 minutes
- Staining and destaining, two minutes
All You Need
- horizontal gel electrophoresis apparatus
- power supply
- UV visualization system
- waterbath
- microcentrifuge
