Scope and Contents

Contents

A new and promising tool in membrane research is the detergent-free solubilization of membrane proteins by styrene–maleic acid copolymers (SMAs). These amphipathic molecules are able to solubilize lipid bilayers in the form of nanodiscs that are bounded by the polymer. Thus, membrane proteins can be directly extracted from cells in a water-soluble...
