Polymer-encased nanodiscs with improved buffer compatibility
2017
Overview
Styrene-maleic acid copolymers allow for solubilization and reconstitution of membrane proteins into nanodiscs. These polymer-encased nanodiscs are promising platforms for studies of membrane proteins in a near-physiologic environment without the use of detergents. However, current styrene-maleic acid copolymers display severe limitations in terms of buffer compatibility and ensued flexibility for various applications. Here, we present a new family of styrene-maleic acid copolymers that do not aggregate at low pH or in the presence of polyvalent cations, and can be used to solubilize membrane proteins and produce nanodiscs of controlled sizes.
