Is your phosphate a Na-K phosphate? If it is, then you're probably getting a
K salt of SDS which is considerably less soluble than Na or Li salts.

Subject: [ccp4bb] LDAO & SDS-PAGE

Hello everyone...

I have a protein solubilised in 1% LDAO, 50 mM Phosphate pH 7.5, 150 mM
NaCl. When I mix it with laemmli buffer and heat at 95C, 3 mins for
SDS-PAGE, it aggregates (as in when you mix GuHCl with SDS) and can't be
loaded onto the gel.

Does anyone know why it happens? Thanks a lot!!!
