Polymer-Based Nanodiscs for Structural and Functional Analyses of Bacterial and Mammalian Membrane Proteins
DownloadSpring 2020
Unlike cytosolic proteins, membrane proteins (MPs) are embedded within the plasma membrane and the lipid bilayer of intracellular organelles. MPs serve in various cellular processes such as ion and metabolite transports, bioenergetic processes, signal transductions, and cell-cell communications....
