Crystallization of membrane proteins
H. Michel. International Tables for Crystallography (2006). Vol. F, ch. 4.2, pp. 94-99  [ doi:10.1107/97809553602060000661 ]

Abstract

The crystallization of membrane proteins is described. The topics covered include the principles of membrane-protein crystallization, general properties of detergents relevant to membrane-protein crystallization, the `small amphiphile concept', membrane-protein crystallization with the help of antibody Fv fragments and membrane-protein crystallization using cubic bicontinuous lipidic phases. General recommendations on crystallizing membrane proteins are provided, and membrane proteins with known structures and potentially useful detergents are tabulated.
