Abstract

This protocol describes a denaturing polyacrylamide gel system utilizing sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) to separate protein molecules based on size as first described by Laemmli (1970). SDS-PAGE can be used to monitor protein purifications, check the purity of samples, and to estimate molecular weights for unknown proteins.
