Lipid Membrane Mimetics in Functional and Structural Studies of Integral Membrane Proteins
Integral membrane proteins (IMPs) fulfill important physiological functions by providing cell–environment, cell–cell and virus–host communication; nutrients intake; export of toxic compounds out of cells; and more. However, some IMPs have obliterated functions due to polypeptide mutations, modificat...
