Abstract Resolution of a wide range of polypeptides, 3.5–200kDa, on a single low acrylamide and cross linkage gel of 7.7% T, 2.6% C is described here. Laemmli's (4) original discontinuous SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) system is modified by increasing the ionic strength of both stacking and resolving gels, and replacing the usual glycine buffer with a tricine cathode buffer as described by Schagger and von Jagow (7). This system offers the advantage of a wide range of protein fractionation, with sufficient band resolution, on a single, low acrylamide concentration and cross linkage gel. Moreover, increased gel ionic concentration allows higher protein and salt load, and renders this system suitable for preparative work.
