Detergent-free reconstitution of transmembrane proteins in giant liposomes of complex curvature by the Synthetic Membrane Transfer

Hemraj Meena, Rafal Zdanowicz, Tobias Bock-Bierbaum…·Nicola De Franceschi

This paper introduces a detergent-free method to reconstitute transmembrane proteins into GUVs with complex curvature, enabling functional studies of membrane proteins in physiologically relevant geometries.
