Describe a strategy to purify a soluble protein (50 KDa) from a
cell. Your protein must be ultra pure and devoid of any
contamination. You can only draw a digram or a flow chart or show
purification scheme ( don't write essay)!! use 4-5 different
methods for purification and analysis

imagine that you have created a protein with an N-terminal ER
signal sequence and a C-terminal NLS. Given your understanding of
how these signal sequences function, predict what would happen to
this protein. Be sure to state the final localization of the
protein and provide a brief rationale.

You
did an experiment in which you fractionated eukaryotic cells to
purify the endoplasmic reticulum fraction, and you extracted the
membrane proteins from this cell fraction. Next, you submit these
membrane proteins for mass spectrometry analysis at the protein
core facility of the university where you work. When the mass
spectrometry results come back, you notice that many of the
identified proteins are missing the N-terminal approximately 30
residues of the protein as it is encoded in the DNA. What...

The protein has 7 transmembrane domains spaced evenly in the
middle of the protein.
At the extreme N-terminus is a sensing domain that detects
glucose levels.
At the extreme C-terminus is a protein domain that resembles a
kinase domain. This domain is incredibly likely to be
intracellular. You have data to suggest that this domain interacts
with cytosolic...

You suspect that your purified E protein binds a segment of host
(human) DNA required for the expression of a host protein essential
for the mammalian immune response.
A. How would you show that your purified E protein binds
specifically to this segment of DNA?
B. What controls would you use to ensure that the binding is
specific?
C. How would you determine the apparent Kd of the purified E
protein for this DNA?
