2-Dimension Electrophoresis (2-DE) for Protein Separation The core technology of proteomics is 2-DE: At present, there is no other technique which is capable of resolving thousands of proteins in one separation procedure. Speaker: C. C. Wu Date: 31/10/2001
NH3+ NH3+ NH2 COOH COO- COO- NH3+ NH3+ NH2 COOH COO- COO- pH < pI Positive charge pH = pI pH > pI Negative charge Isoelectric point Net charge pH Isoelectric point (pI): Isoelectric point is the pH of a solution at which the net charge of protein is zero. In electrophoresis there is no motion of the particles in an electric field at the isoelectric point.
