SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) separates proteins by

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

SDS-PAGE separates proteins according to their size by denaturing the protein with SDS and separating them based on their molecular weight through the polyacrylamide gel. SDS is a detergent that binds to the protein and gives it a uniform negative charge, allowing proteins to migrate according to their size through the gel. Therefore, the correct answer is D, size.
