The Extractability of Inner-Membrane Proteins from Salmonella typhimurium Intact Cells, Spheroplasts and Inner-Membrane Fragments by Non-Denaturing Detergents
The effect of Triton X-100, Na cholate and Tween 80 on the solubilization of integral membrane proteins in intact cells, spheroplasts and inner-membrane fragments of Salmonella typhimurium was studied. The detergents were used in various concentrations (1.6 to 64 mM) and cytochromes b and d were used as marker to monitor the solubilization of membrane-bound proteins. Results showed that no inne...
متن کاملEctoenzymes of the kidney microvillar membrane. Differential solubilization by detergents can predict a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol membrane anchor.
The pattern of solubilization of nine kidney microvillar ectoenzymes by a range of detergents distinguished two classes of membrane proteins: those released from the membrane by bacterial phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C and those not so released. The latter group of transmembrane proteins were solubilized efficiently (greater than 80%) by all the detergents examined. In contrast, ...
متن کاملSpecific Lipid Binding of Membrane Proteins in Detergent Micelles Characterized by NMR and Molecular Dynamics.
Many membrane proteins bind specifically to lipids as an integral component of their structures. The ability of detergents to support lipid binding is thus an important consideration when solubilizing membrane proteins for structural studies. In particular, the zwitterionic phosphocholine (PC)-based detergents, which have been widely used in solution NMR studies of channels and transporters, ar...
متن کاملSolubilization of the serotonin1A receptor monitored utilizing membrane dipole potential.
Solubilization of membrane proteins by amphiphilic detergents represents a crucial step in studies of membrane proteins in which proteins and lipids in natural membranes are dissociated giving rise to mixed clusters of proteins, lipids and detergents in the aqueous dispersion. Although solubilization is a popular method, physicochemical principles underlying solubilization are not well understo...
متن کاملSolubilization of human erythrocyte membranes by ASB detergents.
Understanding the membrane solubilization process and finding effective solubilizing agents are crucial challenges in biochemical research. Here we report results on the interaction of the novel linear alkylamido propyl dimethyl amino propanosulfonate detergents, ASB-14 and ASB-16, with human erythrocyte membranes. An estimation of the critical micelle concentration of these zwitterionic deterg...
