A purified protein fraction has a total sample volume of 360 µL. The sample has a corrected A280 of 0.484, and the blank corrected A280 was 0.052. (Both values were measured with a path length of 1.00 cm.) If 5.00 µL of the sample was used in a reaction, calculate the mass of protein in the reaction (in µg).

You are given a pure protein sample to characterize and provided the following information: Its molar extinction coefficient, ε280, is 0.25 liters micromole-1 cm-1 in both the folded and unfolded form Its ΔGo for unfolding is 1.5 kcal/mol at 37o (where RT = 0.59 kcal/mole) A) Using a 0.5 cm pathlength cell, you measure the absorbance at 280 nm of a 20-fold dilution of your pure protein in solution (by this, we mean that 50 ul of the protein sample was diluted to a final volume of 1 ml) and find A280 = 0.40. What is the original concentration of the protein before dilution? B) What is the concentration of the unfolded form of the protein in your sample?
