Membrane proteins: functional and structural studies using reconstituted proteoliposomes and 2-D crystals
Reconstitution of membrane proteins into lipid bilayers is a powerful tool to analyze functional as well as structural areas of membrane protein research. First, the proper incorporation of a purified membrane protein into closed lipid vesicles, to produce proteoliposomes, allows the investigation o...
