005 The isoelectric point of proteins


In this video, I talk about the isoelectric points of the proteins inside the neuron and how that results in the proteins having a negative charge. Understanding the negative charge of proteins inside the cell is important to understanding how neurons function. In the video, I also talk about the pH inside the cell. Just as a brief reminder, the pH tells how acidic or basic a solution is. If you need more info on pH, check out what Wikipedia has to say about pH.

  1. great video! but what’s the difference between isoelectric and isoionic point?

  2. Very good explanation. Nicely presented, brief and concise, very good. I miss an episode of how to calculate the Ip of a protein, though. Thank you.

  3. @m4rk89 I don’t have a video on how to calculate that. All the best!
