Methods for Proteome Analysis of Campylobacter jejuni Using 2-D Electrophoresis

Methods Mol Biol. 2017:1512:233-244. doi: 10.1007/978-1-4939-6536-6_19.

Abstract

This chapter describes protocols used for two-dimensional electrophoretic analysis of the proteome or subproteome of Campylobacter jejuni, a major human food-borne pathogen. The following protocols, adapted to Campylobacter strains, include all the steps from cultivation to gel-support protein separation.

Keywords: 2-D electrophoresis; Campylobacter; Isoelectric point; Protein extraction; Protein purification; SDS-PAGE.
