Protein Molecular Weight Markers for Laboratory Research
Protein ladders are essential tools for estimating the molecular weight of proteins separated through gel electrophoresis.
MOLZYM, the manufacturing brand and sister concern of Bio Genomics Asia, provides molecular biology and protein research products for laboratory applications.
What Is a Protein Ladder?
A protein ladder, also called a protein molecular weight marker, contains proteins of known molecular weights.
When run alongside samples during SDS-PAGE, the ladder provides reference bands that help researchers estimate the approximate molecular weight of target proteins.
Applications
Protein ladders are commonly used in:
- SDS-PAGE
- Western blot workflows
- Protein expression research
- Protein purification research
- Molecular biology
- Biochemistry
- Biotechnology research
Choosing a Protein Ladder
Important factors include:
- Molecular weight range
- Number of bands
- Prestained or unstained format
- Compatibility with gel systems
- Band visibility
- Storage conditions
- Pack size
The appropriate ladder depends on the molecular weight of the target protein.
