Dear All, When I purified my protein by ion exchange chromatography for crystallization, there were several peaks containing the target protein as analyzed by SDS-PAGE. All these peaks have the same MW as determined by gel filtration coupled MALLS.
For crystallization purpose, can I merge the corresponding ion exchange chromatography peaks together? Otherwise the protein yield will be too low. And how to explain the heterogeneity by ion exchange chromatography in this situation? I am looking forward to getting a reply from you. Acoot
