DNA UV Spectra
DNA and RNA Bases
UV Spectra for Increasing DNA
Concentrations
UV Spectra for Individual DNA nucleosides
Spectra Composition
UV Spectroscopy of Nucleic Acids
and Proteins
• 260/280
– DNA ~1.8
– RNA ~2.0
– Lower by 0.2-0.3 acidic solution, protein, phenol,
other contaminates
– Higher by 0.2-0.3 basic solution
• 260/280 nucleotides
– Guanine 1.15, Adenine 4.5, Cytosine 1.51, Uracil
4.0, Thymidine 1.47
UV Spectroscopy of Nucleic Acids
and Proteins
• 230/280
– Higher than 260/280 often in range of 2.0-2.2
– Lower indicates presence of contaminates like
phenol that absorb at 280 nm.
Example Guanidinium HCl
Example- Phenol

IPTG/DE3 SYSTEM
IPTG
pET SUMO
SUMO Tag Inserted Here
SUMO System
• SUMO Tag is small (~100 residues), heat stable
protein with a highly compact globular structure.
• SUMO Protease 1 is able to selectively cleave
fusion proteins, releasing peptides or proteins
with any desired N-terminal residue, except
proline.
• SUMO Protease 1 requires the entire SUMO
sequence for recognition (recognizes 3D
structure) and never cleaves within the fused
protein of interest.
SUMO Gene Fusion System
• SUMO Tag Enhances Expression
• SUMO Tag Chaperones Correctly Folded Proteins
• SUMO Protease Reliable Cleaver of SUMO Tag

IMAC / SUMO Proteins
His 6X- SUMO Solubility TAG Target Gene
Steps In IMAC SUMO Production and
Purification
1. Clone Gene into SUMO Vector.
2. Express SUMO/Target Gene Fusion Protein in E.
coli or other host.
3. Purify SUMO Target Fusion Protein on Ni or Co
column (IMAC).
Optional (not done in our case)
1. Digest SUMO Target Fusion Protein with SUMO
protease.
2. Re-purify Target Protein from SUMO protease
and SUMO domain w/6x his tag using Ni or Co
column (IMAC).

SDS PAGE
• Protein is first denatured
– Heat unfolds tertiary and secondary structure
– Beta-Mercaptoethanol or Dithiotheritol disrupt disulfide
cross linkages
• SDS and Molecular Radius
– SDS-coated proteins are linear molecules, 18 Angstroms
wide w/length proportional to their molecular weight.
– Molecular radius and mobility in the gel is determined by
side chains in AA sequence, and the length (i.e. molecular
weight of the protein).
– SDS-coated proteins have the same approximate charge to
mass ratio so no differential migration based on charge.
SDS Ensures Protein Remains
Denatured During Electrophoresis
and Provides Negative Charge
