Effects of lipid environment on aquaporin : exploration of styrene-maleic acid nanodiscs for single-particle cryo-EM structural determination
Aquaporin Z (AqpZ) is a water channel protein native to Escherichia coli with lipid-dependent activity. However, AqpZ structural changes that may explain water flux changes have not yet been elucidated. Thus, my aim was to use styrene-maleic acid copolymers (SMAc) to produce AqpZ-nanodiscs suitable...
