Calculation of protein isoelectric point

Welcome, here is the place were you can online estimate protein isoelectric point. It is higly important to know this parametr, even approximately, during molecular biology analyses, especially in 2D gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing. Additionally, there was presented short protein isoelectric point calculation manual. You can learn how to write a computer program which will estimate isoelectric point or simply download ready one. Presented C++ program make use of bisection method, one of the most widely used numerical algorithms.


 

Below is the text area where you can paste one, raw amino acid sequence of analyzed protein (peptide)

Choose appropriate pK values model
 


Note: the sequence should be in UPPERCASE LETTERS (lowercase letters and meaningless uppercase leters will be ignored)

Input example
If you would like to analyze Ala-Pro-Lys-His-Ala-Tyr peptide, please enter APKHAY

Additionally, you can choose between seven different sets of pK values (for more information see a table).


Theoretical basis of isoelectric point calculation, i.e. how to calculate protein isoelectric point using Henderson-Hasselbach equation

Practical point of view (examplary program, which can calculate isoelectric point of given protein)
