Abstract
An electrophoresis method using an electrophoretic tank with asymmetric gradient electric field for macro-molecular separation and analysis features that in its electrophoretic tank, the gel with single-row sample slot and its supporter are arranged asymmetrically to make the one end of sample slot near the central line and another end near electrode in order to obviously increase separation effect and the resolution of biological macro-molecular band. For the double-row sample slot, the gel and its supporter are arranged in the center for reference electrophoresis of two sample groups in the gel where charge effect gradient is increased and decreased.
Description
The present invention is a kind of gel electrophoresis groove and electrophoresis method of separating bio macromolecular substances, belongs to the big molecular separation and the analysis technical field of biotechnology.
Gel electrophoresis is the common technology of biomacromolecule materials such as separation and analysing protein, nucleic acid.Gel electrophoresis apparatus is by electrophoresis tank and provide electrophoresis apparatus two parts (working simultaneously) of power supply to form for it.Existing steady direct current electrophoresis tank (horizontal strip electrophoresis groove, vertical electrophoresis groove etc.) all is that the center position between a pair of positive and negative electrode (being generally the platinum wire electrode of pair of parallel) is set gel bearing support (tabular or tubulose), during electrophoresis, separate in the gel of sample nearly all length of placing placed in the middle between positive and negative electrode.Electric Field Distribution and superposition principle according to even long straight conductor, at this gel that is arranged in the electrode pair middle position, electric field intensity is the most weak with electrophoresis midline between two electrodes (equating with effective electrophoresis distance of anodal and negative pole), strengthen gradually by two electrode direction of alignment in this, be the symmetry Gradient distribution.Therefore, in existing symmetry gradient electric field electrophoresis tank, when sample is added to gel near electrode (being generally a negative pole) end, when the gel other end carries out current stabilization or voltage stabilizing electrophoresis, electrophoresis pattern vertically shows as three sections property: at first in application of sample one side of gel, electrophoretic band is dense; And at the zone line of gel, the intensive and most adhesions of electrophoretic band are the disperse shape; At the opposite side of gel, electrophoretic band disperses, but wall scroll bands of a spectrum broad.Along with the increase of gel length and the corresponding prolongation of electrophoresis time, the problems referred to above are more obvious.Thereby the separating effect and the resolving power of gel electrophoresis have been limited.The crux that produces this problem is: in the electrophoresis process, at first since the charge effect of sample biomacromolecule material and gel to the molecular sieving effect of sample, molecule swimming less, that the quantity of electric charge is big is fast; Meanwhile, from this half section of gelling of sample cell to two interpolar electrophoresis center line, the gradient deceleration swimming that whole sample molecules weaken gradually along electric field intensity because less molecule is introduced into the gel area of low electric field intensity, thereby is at first slowed down; The quantity of electric charge is big more, and the amplitude of deceleration is also big more; Thereafter bigger molecule is then still with the fast speed swimming.As a result, have different molecular characteristic (molecular weight, molecular shape, electric charge etc.), trend various contiguous biomacromolecule bands of a spectrum separately are close mutually again.Typical situation is that two or more big molecules that molecular characterization is close are wall scroll bands of a spectrum or dispersion plating in adhesion in the process of electrophoresis center line swimming.Therefore, in preceding half section of gelling, the electric field intensity that gradient weakens has weakened the separating effect to sample biomacromolecule material such as gel molecular sieve effect greatly.On the other hand, in this half section of gelling, the gradient that the wall scroll bands of a spectrum weaken gradually along electric field intensity also obtains concentrating in various degree, thereby molecular characterization differs greatly, the bands of a spectrum of adhesion not, then presents arrowband more clearly.Cross after the electrophoresis center line, the gradient that biomacromolecule strengthens gradually along electric field intensity is again quickened to separate, make adjacent macromolecular mobility speed constantly increase gap, in the second half section gel, the charge effect that gradient strengthens significantly improves the separating effect of gel molecular sieve effect on sample.But because the curtailment of this half section of gelling is so that have the big molecule of fine difference and separate fully, particularly cross the polymolecular band of electrophoresis center line distance, still form the partly accepting and partly rejecting dispersion plating shape of multiple molecule from short (promptly be positioned at gel zone line electrophoresis center line near).Increase gel length and prolong electrophoresis time, can increase the electrophoresis distance between bands of a spectrum on the one hand, but then, because the also corresponding increase with quantity of heat production of resistance in the electrophoresis process, thereby the longitudinal diffusion of wall scroll bands of a spectrum is with shape disperse more apart from increase; And, increasing gel length and also cause electric-force gradient to strengthen, the separating effect of half section of gelling further weakens before making.Bigger is problematic in that, molecular characterization is close do not cross again the electrophoresis center line, finally be arranged in before the biomacromolecule of half section of gelling, stick in all the time and can not get in wall scroll bands of a spectrum or the dispersion plating separating.
Purpose of the present invention, be exactly at existing electrophoresis tank and the intrinsic theoretical defects of electrophoresis method, create a class and utilize the asymmetry electric field intensity gradient to separate and analyze the gel electrophoresis groove and the electrophoresis method of biomacromolecule material, with separating effect and the resolving power that significantly improves gel electrophoresis.
