title: A simple method for preparation of molecular weight marker proteins for sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis by photopolymerizations of hemoglobin subunits.
abstract: Photoirradiation of globin, obtained from human hemoglobin, in the presence of oxygen and protoporphyrin produced a series of polymers of globin subunits ranging from dimer to dodecamer. These polymers are useful as molecular weight markers because they cover a relatively wide range of molecular weights (Mr 15,500-186,000) with a constant and narrow interval of Mr 15,500.
