Glycine Receptor Complex Analysis Using Immunoprecipitation-Blue Native Gel Electrophoresis-Mass Spectrometry.
Pentameric glycine receptor (GlyR), which consists of α1 and β subunits, is the major inhibitory ionotropic receptors in the brain stem and spinal cord. GlyRs interact with gephyrin (GPHN), a protein scaffold that anchors GlyR in the plasma membrane and allowing it to form a cluster in postsynapses glycinergic.
Using interaction proteomics approach, we provide evidence ArfGEFs IQ motif and domain Sec7 3 (IQSEC3) and IQ motif and domain Sec7 2 (IQSEC2) as two novel synaptic protein complexes interact with GlyR. When affinity-isolated GlyR complex fractionated with blue gel electrophoresis original and characterized by mass spectrometry, GlyR α1β-GPHN emerged as a complex of the most abundant with a molecular weight of about 1 MDA, and GlyR α1β-GPHN-IQSEC3 as minor proteins complex about 1, 2 MDA.
A third GlyR α1β-GPHN-IQSEC2 complex is on the lowest number with mass similar to a complex containing IQSEC3. Using yeast two-hybrid we show that IQSEC3 GlyR interact with the complex by binding to G GPHN domain at the N-terminal of IQSEC3 IQ-like domain. Our data provide direct evidence of the complex interaction with GlyR IQSEC3-GPHN, underscores the potential role of this ArfGEFs in synaptic function glycinergic.

Quantitative Analysis of RNA Guard activities by Native Gel Electrophoresis and Fluorescence Spectroscopy.
various types of RNA binding proteins noncoding RNA chaperone interaction by increasing the level of RNA base pairs and to stabilize the RNA duplex end. E. coli protein Hfq facilitate interactions between noncoding small RNAs and their target mRNAs. Companion and RNA annealing activity of Hfq and other RNA chaperone can be evaluated by determining the kinetics of RNA base pairs in the presence and absence of protein.
This chapter presents a protocol for measuring RNA annealing kinetics using gel electrophoresis mobility shift tests (EMSA), to stop the flow of fluorescence, and fluorescence anisotropy. EMSA is low cost and can complete the reaction intermediates and natural small RNA fragments of mRNA, long enough for complex life (≥10 s) trapped during electrophoresis. Stop the flow of fluorescence can detect annealing reaction between 1 ms and 30 and most suitable for measuring rapid annealing oligoribonucleotides.
fluorescence anisotropy reported physical size of the complex and is suitable for monitoring the association and dissociation of RNA from Hfq for companion cycle.We measured bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (ALP) isoenzyme activity in 67 plasma samples from 14 newborn Holstein calves using both conventional methods ( featuring heat inactivation) and commercial agarose gel electrophoresis (AGE) kit; Relevant isoenzymes called bone-specific ALP (BAP) and ALP isoenzyme 3 (ALP3).
We explored whether AGE kit supplied reliable data when used to analyze samples from Holstein calves. Blood was collected from the jugular vein of each calf shortly before the first meal of colostrum (pre-feeding), 20 and 40 hours after the pre-meal, and on days 4 and 7; while three samples (from three calf) is not obtained. Plasma total ALP activity varied widely, exceeding the reference value range. In the electrophoresis, 52 of 67 samples of plasma (77.6%) clearly contains both ALP isoenzyme 2 and ALP3, as do human control serum.
