Structure, 25:384-392, 2017 Cited by PubMed Abstract: For some membrane proteins, detergent-mediated solubilization compromises protein stability and functionality, often impairing biophysical and structural analyses. Hence, membrane-protein structure determination is a continuing bottleneck in the field of protein crystallography. Here, as an alternative to approaches mediated by conventional detergents, we report the crystallogenesis of a recombinantly produced membrane protein that never left a lipid bilayer environment. We used styrene-maleic acid (SMA) copolymers to solubilize lipid-embedded proteins into SMA nanodiscs, purified these discs by affinity and size-exclusion chromatography, and transferred proteins into the lipidic cubic phase (LCP) for in meso crystallization. The 2.0-Å structure of an α-helical seven-transmembrane microbial rhodopsin thus obtained is of high quality and virtually identical to the 2.2-Å structure obtained from traditional detergent-based purification and subsequent LCP crystallization.
