  • How do I prepare a denaturing polyacrylamide gel?
  • 2. Prepare a denaturing polyacrylamide gel as described in Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis of RNA (Rio et al. 2010). Set up the gel in the gel box, add TBE electrophoresis buffer (diluted to 1×) to the upper and lower reservoirs, and prerun the gel for 15–45 min at a maximum of 1500 V/45 mA.
  • How does polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) work?
  • Gel electrophoresis is a fundamental technique for separating molecules such as DNA, RNA and proteins in laboratories across the biological disciplines. In this article, we will consider how polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) works, how it can be interpreted and some of its applications.
  • How does a polyacrylamide gel separate analytes?
  • The basic principle of PAGE is to separate analytes by passing them through the pores of a polyacrylamide gel using an electric current. To achieve this, an acrylamide– bisacrylamide mix is polymerized (polyacrylamide) by the addition of ammonium persulfate (APS).
  • How does polyacrylamide gel work?
  • The polyacrylamide gel is cast between two glass plates that are separated by two thin Teflon or nylon spacers. A so-called shark's tooth comb or, less frequently, a standard slotted comb forms the sample wells into which the RNA samples are loaded before electrophoresis.
