it is a marker for specific protein identification.in electrophoresis it is used to
identify particular protein based on the molecular weight.
The Clinical Chemistry Section of a Hospital Pathology Laboratory will prpbably undertake protein electrophoresis on the blood samples from patients.
If the pH value becomes lower than the protein's isoelectric point (pI) in 2D gel electrophoresis, the protein will acquire a net positive charge due to the excess of protons. This will cause the protein to move towards the cathode during electrophoresis.
The marker lanes are important in electrophoresis because in these lanes peptides or proteins with known molecular sizes and weights (standards) run beside, on the same gel, with the sample and the Rfs (relative mobilities) of the developed bands of the unknown proteins can be compared with those of the standards.
The main factors that can cause faster protein migration in electrophoresis are higher voltage, smaller pore size of the gel matrix, and lower molecular weight of the protein. These factors can increase the speed at which proteins move through the gel during electrophoresis.
To calculate the molecular weight of a protein in electrophoresis, you would use a standard curve generated with protein standards of known molecular weights run on the same gel. By plotting the migration distance of the standard proteins against their known molecular weights, you can then determine the molecular weight of your protein of interest based on its migration distance on the gel in comparison to the standard curve.
The purpose of the marker in gel electrophoresis is to help determine the size of DNA fragments by providing known reference points for comparison.

Typically, a lavender or purple-top tube is used to collect a blood sample for protein electrophoresis testing. These tubes contain EDTA as an anticoagulant to prevent clotting and preserve the blood sample for analysis.
For protein electrophoresis, a clear or colorless test tube is typically used. This allows for easy visualization of the protein bands after electrophoresis is complete. Any other colored test tube could interfere with accurate observation and analysis of the results.

A protein marker is just that - a marker for specific proteins. This usually deals with running an experiment (assay) to determine the presence, absence, and with some markers, abundance of a specific protein
Horizantal gel electrophoresis is generally used for RNA/DNA based studies, while vertical gel electrophoresis is used for protein based studies.
