Optimization of 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis for proteomic studies of oil palm roots

2D electrophoresis (2-DE) is a proteomic tool that has been widely used as this technique is capable of resolving and separating thousands of proteins in a single gel for parallel analysis. 2-DE allows the identification of individual protein and understanding of the host-pathogen interaction during...
