Structural information is key for understanding biological processes. Insoluble proteins, like membrane proteins and amyloid fibrils, are a large class of proteins that are underrepresented in the protein data bank (PDB). As of today, only 7% of all entries in the PDB refer to either a membrane protein or an amyloid fibril structure (membrane protein: 4994 entries; amyloid fibril: 67 entries; total number of entries: 70,303; http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/home/home.do). Given the fact that many drugs target membrane proteins, involved in signal transduction, [1] structural information is highly desirable for a better understanding of the underlying biochemical mechanisms.

Membrane proteins in their native habitat as seen by solid-state NMR spectroscopy
Abstract
Membrane proteins play many critical roles in cells, mediating flow of material and information across cell membranes. They have evolved to perform these functions in the environment of a cell membrane, whose physicochemical properties are often different from those of common cell membrane mimetics used for structure determination. As a result, membrane proteins are difficult to study by traditional methods of structural biology, and they are significantly underrepresented in the protein structure...
