copurification true MI:0025 PSI-MI Approaches designed to separate cell components on the basis of their physicochemical properties. The observation that two or more proteins copurify in one or several conditions is taken as an indication that they form a molecular complex. OBSOLETE since too non-specific. Consider use of cosedimentation (MI:0027) or comigration in non denaturing gel electrophoresis (MI:0404) or affinity chromatography technologies (MI:0004) or molecular sieving (MI:0071) or for unspecific cases biochemical (MI:0401).
