Molecular masses of Bor1p protein and protein-detergent complex purified in C12E8 or DDM. Based on the protein sequence, the calculated molecular mass for Bor1p (monomer) including residues of the tag that remain after 3C cleavage is 65.9 kDa.
| Bor1p in DDM | Bor1p in C12E8 (Lipid added after concentration) |
Bor1p in C12E8 (Lipid added prior to concentration) |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| MW Bor1p (TDSEC)a | 80 ± 5 kDab | 150 ± 20 kDa c | 40 ± 20 kDa |
| MW of complex (TDSEC)d | 180 ± 10 kDa | 310 ± 30 kDa | 320 ± 30 kDa |
| MW of complex (SEC mobility)e | 120 ± 5 kDa | 470 ± 30 kDa | 690 ± 60 kDa |
| Detergent/Protein (g/g) (TDSEC)f | 1.2 ± 0.2 | 1.1 ± 0.2 | NDg |
| Detergent/Protein (g/g) (colorimetric)h | 1.1 | NDi | NDi |
Calculated using the triple detector method [52]. Values are indicated as mean ± standard deviation.
n = 2.
n = 25
Calculated using the triple detector method [52]using a value of dn/dc for detergent of 0.143 for DDM and 0.109 for C12E8. In each case, the value of dn/dc for lipid, if present was assumed to be the same as that for detergent.
Calculated based on the mobility of the protein containing peak, compared with the mobilities of the standard proteins (see Materials and Methods), n = 3.
Calculated as the ratio of the protein and lipid components, each determined by the triple detector TDSEC method.
Not determined due to overlap of protein and free lipid/detergent micelle peaks.
Determined by colorimetric assay of fractions from TDSEC chromatography. The amount of detergent in non-peak containing fractions was subtracted from the detergent concentration of the protein-containing peak. The protein concentration was determined based on staining on SDS-PAGE in comparison to known concentrations of purified 3C protease.
Not determined because the colorimetric assay for detergent is based on detection of sugar moieties and, thus is not applicable to C12E8.
