Crystallization of membrane proteins
Open accessAbstract
Five new membrane protein structures have been determined since 1995 using X-ray crystallography: bacterial light-harvesting complex; bacterial and mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidases; mitochondrial bc1 complex; and alpha-hemolysin. These successes are partly based on advances in the crystallization procedures for integral membrane proteins. Variation of the size of the detergent micelle and/or increasing the size of the polar surface of the membrane protein is the most important route to well-ordered membrane protein crystals. The use of bicontinuous lipidic cubic phases also appears to be promising.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
