Step1: visit Protparam tool and C&P your sequence, scroll down until you find the extinction coefficient part. If OD280 is not close to 1 then make sure to take that into account in your chromatogram say it is 0.7 step2: look at your mAU's If your peak is 1000 mAU then you have 0.7 mg/ml in that fraction Step3: you are pretty lazy google for it

I know I could figure it out myself if I really tried, but why bother when I have access to so many brilliant minds.... Thanks to all, K ......................
