Membrane proteins play a most important part in metabolism, signaling, cell motility,
transport, development, and many other biochemical and biophysical processes which …

The successful assembly of large supramolecular structures infers a delicate balance
between reversible noncovalent interactions which are capable of undergoing correction …

A limiting factor in membrane protein research is the ability to solubilize and stabilize such
proteins. Detergents are used most often for solubilizing membrane proteins, but they are …

We engineered covalently circularized nanodiscs (cNDs) which, compared with standard
nanodiscs, exhibit enhanced stability, defined diameter sizes and tunable shapes …

Membrane proteins are involved in numerous vital biological processes, including transport,
signal transduction and the enzymes in a variety of metabolic pathways. Integral membrane …

Nanodiscs are soluble nanoscale phospholipid bilayers which can self-assemble integral
membrane proteins for biophysical, enzymatic or structural investigations. This means for …

Background: Open Access Editor's Choice Review Lipid Membrane Mimetics in Functional
and Structural Studies of Integral Membrane Proteins by Saman Majeed 1, Akram Bani …

Phospholipid bilayer Nanodiscs are novel model membranes derived from high-density
lipoprotein particles and have proven to be useful in studies of membrane proteins …

In the past few years there has been a growth in the use of nanoparticles for stabilizing lipid
membranes that contain embedded proteins. These bionanoparticles provide a solution to …

The heat-shock response, one of the main pro-survival mechanisms of a living organism,
has evolved as the biochemical response of cells to cope with heat stress. The most well …
