A procedure which allows quantitative determination of the amino acid composition of stained proteins separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-gel electrophoresis using ninhydrin is described. The Coomassie-protein-SDS complex extracted from the gel is dialyzed, lyophylized, and subjected to amino

โฆ Synopsis
A single stained band containing approximately 5 fig of protein was cut out of a polyacrylamide gel and subjected to hydrolysis together with the gel. The hydrolysate was subsequently analyzed for its amino acid content by high-performance liquid chromatography and postlabeling with o-phthalaldehyde. Bovine serum albumin, ribonuclease B, ovalbumin, pepsin, and chymotrypsinogen A were analyzed by this method, and their amino acid compositions were found to be in good agreement with the reported values.
