Dear colleagues,
We've isolated and cDNA encoding a protein which should have a
weight of 25 kD dased on computer program calculation. However, after we
did Western blot using antibodies specific to this protein we got a 33kD
band on SDS-PAGE (under reduced conditions). Although this protein is a
glycoprotein, it shouldn't change so much since only one glyco-site was
found. Does any one can explain this for me? Any suggestions are highly
appreciated.
Please respond by e-mail.
