Your purification strategy of combinations of chromatography steps gives a protein preparation with a single band on SDS-PAGE. Which of the following would be best for determining the protein concentration (as mg/ml or molarity)?

#Unit 13. Methods in Biology
  1. Measure a UV absorbance scan and use the absorbance at 280nm with the molar extinction coefficient (predicted from the amino acid sequence)
  2. Determine amino acid composition after hydrolysis to amino acids
  3. Colorimetric assay using Bradford or BCA assays
  4. "Guesstimate" the concentration from the intensity of bands on SDS-PAGE gel

Choose the correct option 
a. Individual nucleosomes can be obtained by treating chromatin with the endonuclease micrococcal nuclease (MNase), which cuts the DNA between nucleosomes, a region known as H2A-H2B dimer region. 
b. Individual nucleosomes can be obtained by treating chromatin with the endonuclease micrococcal nuclease (MNase), which cuts the DNA between nucleosomes, a region known as linker DNA.
c. Mononucleosomes typically have 200 bp DNA. End-trimming reduces the length of DNA first to 165 bp and then generates core particles with 146 bp.
d. Mononucleosomes typically have 200 bp DNA. End-trimming reduces the length of DNA first to 165 bp and then generates core particles with 200 bp.
