Question
Chapter 5, Problem 11E
Summary Introduction
To explain: The reason why a protein with sedimentation coefficient of 2.6S, when ultracentrifuged in a solution containing 0.1 M NaCl, has a sedimentation coefficient of 4.3S in a solution containing 1 M NaCl.
Concept introduction: Sedimentation coefficient of a particle is used to characterize its behavior in sedimentation processes, usually centrifugation. Ultracentrifugation is a technique that involves the application of centrifugal force to separate the molecules from the solution, based on their viscosity of the medium, shape, density, size, and the rotor speed.
