High-level expression, single-step immunoaffinity purification and characterization of human tetraspanin membrane protein CD81.

The study of membrane protein structure and function requires their high-level expression and purification in fully functional form. We previously used a tetracycline-inducible stable mammalian cell line, HEK293S-TetR, for regulated high-level expression of G-protein coupled receptors. We here repor...
