Clear Native Gel Electrophoresis for the Purification of Fluorescently Labeled Membrane Proteins in Native Nanodiscs

Bence Ezsias, Nikolaus Goessweiner‐Mohr, Christine Siligan, Andreas Hörner, Carolyn Vargas, Sandro Keller, Peter Pohl

This paper introduces a method using charged polymer-encapsulated nanodiscs and FCS to purify fluorescently labeled membrane proteins in native-like lipid environments, avoiding aggregation and enabling structural studies.

An asymmetric nautilus-like HflK/C assembly controls FtsH proteolysis of membrane proteins

Alireza Ghanbarpour, Bertina Telusma, Barrett M. Powell, Jia Jia Zhang, Isabella Bolstad, Carolyn Vargas, Sandro Keller, Tania A. Baker, Robert T. Sauer, Joseph H. Davis

The paper presents structures of native FtsH-HflK/C complexes in E. coli, revealing an asymmetric nautilus-like assembly that facilitates membrane protein degradation.
