IEF Standards
Isoelectric focusing (IEF) protein standards allow dependable and reproducible pI calibration in native polyacrylamide or agarose IEF gels. Our IEF protein standards are a mixture of nine native proteins with pI ranging from 4.45 to 9.6. Five of the nine proteins are naturally colored to aid in monitoring the focusing. These standards are provided in a stable aqueous solution, and need no reconstitution or dilution prior to use.
Constituent Proteins of IEF Standards*
| Protein | Color | pl |
| 1. Cytochrome c | Red | 9.6 |
| 2. Lentil lectin (3 bands) | — | 7.8, 8.0, 8.2 |
| 3. Human hemoglobin C | Red | 7.5 |
| 4. Human hemoglobin A | Red | 7.1 |
| 5. Equine myoglobin (2 bands) | Brown | 6.8, 7.0 |
| 6. Human carbonic anhydrase | — | 6.5 |
| 7. Bovine carbonic anhydrase | — | 6.0 |
| 8. β-Lactoglobulin B | — | 5.1 |
| 9. Phycocyanin (3 bands) | Blue | 4.45, 4.65, 4.75 |
* Because the IEF protein standards are in native form, they cannot be used with reducing or denaturing agents such as urea, β-mercaptoethanol, or dithiothreitol. For calibration of IEF tube gels containing urea, use 2-D SDS-PAGE standards.
2-D SDS-PAGE Standards
These unique protein standards provide calibrated references for the pI and molecular weight of proteins in 2-D SDS-PAGE applications. They consist of seven reduced, denatured proteins that can be visualized with silver or Coomassie Blue staining. No dilution is required.
Constituent Proteins of 2–D SDS-PAGE Standards
| Protein | pl | MW |
| 1. Hen egg white conalbumin | 6.0, 6.3, 6.6 | 76,000 |
| 2. BSA | 5.4, 5.5, 5.6 (empirically determined) | 66,000 |
| 3. Bovine muscle actin | 5.0, 5.1 (empirically determined) | 43,000 |
| 4. Rabbit muscle GAPDH |
8.3, 8.5 | 36,000 |
| 5. Bovine carbonic anhydrase | 5.9, 6.0 | 31,000 |
| 6. Soybean trypsin inhibitor | 4.5 | 21,500 |
| 7. Equine myoglobin |
7.0 | 17,500 |
Precision Plus Protein™ Standard Plugs
Precision Plus Protein Standards are available cast into 1 mm thick agarose plugs for easy storage, handling, and loading. They come in easy-to-use snap-off molds in packs of 24 (one application per plug), allowing quick and clean loading of molecular weight standards on any gel. These plugs can be used on vertical 2-D gels with no reference well.
These plug protein standards are unstained. Loading concentrations have been optimized for staining with SYPRO Ruby, Silver Stain Plus™, or Bio-Safe™ Coomassie Blue.
Features and Benefits of Precision Plus Protein Standard Plugs
- Precast for ease of use — just snap, twist, and load the plug onto a gel
- Absolute molecular weight accuracy, confirmed by mass spectrometry
- Ideal ten-band range from 10 kD to 250 kD, with 3 high-intensity reference bands (25 kD, 50 kD, and 75 kD) for instant gel orientation
- Molecular weights that never change, so band sizes are easy to remember
- High r2 value, >0.995, allowing accurate molecular weight determination
- Known concentration of protein in each band, allowing quantitation capability
- Strep-tag amino acid sequence for detection and molecular weight determination on western blots
