Efficient extraction of membrane proteins can be a dicey business: Add too little detergent, and you fail to extract the protein; add too much, and purification procedures and downstream applications ...

Membrane proteins are the gateway to cells and are involved in many critical functions. Each membrane protein is unique, and their complexity makes it difficult to fit into a standardized expression ...

Researchers led by UChicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering’s Chong Liu and Northwestern’s George Schatz have developed a tunable system that selectively controls chemical transport at the ...
