[NMR paper] Solubilization of Membrane Proteins into Functional Lipid-Bilayer Nanodiscs Using a Diisobutylene/Maleic Acid Copolymer Solubilization of Membrane Proteins into Functional Lipid-Bilayer Nanodiscs Using a Diisobutylene/Maleic Acid Copolymer Once removed from their natural environment, membrane proteins depend on membrane-mimetic systems to retain their native structures and functions. To this end, lipid-bilayer nanodiscs that are bounded by scaffold proteins or amphiphilic polymers such as styrene/maleic acid (SMA) copolymers have been introduced as alternatives to detergent micelles and liposomes for in vitro membrane-protein research. Herein, we show that an alternating diisobutylene/maleic acid...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	01-12-2017 05:31 PM

Optimizing nanodiscs and bicelles for solution NMR studies of two Î²-barrel membrane proteins Optimizing nanodiscs and bicelles for solution NMR studies of two Î²-barrel membrane proteins Abstract Solution NMR spectroscopy has become a robust method to determine structures and explore the dynamics of integral membrane proteins. The vast majority of previous studies on membrane proteins by solution NMR have been conducted in lipid micelles. Contrary to the lipids that form a lipid bilayer in biological membranes, micellar lipids typically contain only a single hydrocarbon chain or two chains that are too short to form a bilayer. Therefore,...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	02-10-2015 10:56 AM

Nanodiscs vs. Macrodiscs for NMR of Membrane Proteins. Nanodiscs vs. Macrodiscs for NMR of Membrane Proteins. Nanodiscs vs. Macrodiscs for NMR of Membrane Proteins. Biochemistry. 2011 Sep 21; Authors: Park SH, Berkamp S, Cook GA, Chan MK, Viadiu H, Opella SJ Abstract It is challenging to find membrane mimics that stabilize the native structure, dynamics, and functions of membrane proteins. In a recent advance, nanodiscs have been shown to provide a bilayer environment compatible with solution NMR. Increasing the lipid to "belt" peptide ratio expands their diameter, slows their reorientation...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	09-23-2011 05:30 PM
