Nanoparticles and photochemistry for native-like transmembrane protein footprinting

The intrinsic flexibility of membranes proteins still poses a challenge in determining their active structure. Here the authors describe the development of a method that combines chemical footprinting and mass spectrometry to assist in determining the structure of native membrane proteins and their...
