This protocol is significant, because it provides a method to separate four cellular compartments from one another, the cytoplasm, the nucleus, the mitochondria, and the membrane. Not only that, but it's a scalable, reproducible procedure that has

This fractionation protocol will allow researchers to isolate cytoplasmic, nuclear, mitochondrial, and membrane proteins from mammalian cells. The latter two subcellular fractions are further purified via isopycnic density gradient.
