After TCA precipitation got popular, various methods came out to precipitate proteins from mixed protein samples in order to get total proteins: acetone precipitation, chloroform-methanol precipitation, TCA/acetone precipitation, etc. And it seems each method has some variations.
I was wondering if you know differences among these methods. What are these methods good at and bad at? Is there any experience that you can not precipitate proteins of your interest? How to choose the best one for my experiments among them.
Would you share your experiences and knowledge? |
