Abstract:In the present experiment, a new slot comb was designed in order to form a wide and sloped sample well on the stacking gel of electrophoresis. Using this slot comb, a gradient of the reagent layer of interest can be easily formed transversely on the gel that is perpendicular to the direction of electrophoresis. Thus, the protein sample overlaid on the agent migrates across the gradient layer during electrophoresis to produce a continuous electrophoretic band reflecting the interaction between the protein and reagent. This new slot comb (tentatively called slope comb) was applied to the following two experiments. In the first experiment, in combination with this comb and a reducing agent, 2-mercaptoethanol, the reducing steps of cross-linked axonemal proteins with o-iodosobenzoic acid (OIBA) were analyzed electrophoretically, enabling visualization of the reducing pattern of each axonemal protein in a single experiment. The results obtained indicate that alpha and beta tubulins are cross-linked differently by OIBA. In the second experiment, the formation of the Ca2+ gradient layer using this slope comb could electrophoretically differentiate the Ca2+ sensitivity of three Ca(2+)-binding proteins.
