J Colloid Interface Sci . 2015 Jan; 445:127-136. PMID: 25616252
Our goal is to design optimised fluorinated surfactants for handling membrane proteins in solution. We report herein the self-assembling and biochemical properties of a new hemifluorinated surfactant (H3F6H3DigluM) with a...

FEBS J . 2012 Dec; 280(4):1051-63. PMID: 23253866
The ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channel is a hetero-octameric complex that links cell metabolism to membrane electrical activity in many cells, thereby controlling physiological functions such as insulin release, muscle contraction...

Rahmeh R, Damian M, Cottet M, Orcel H, Mendre C, Durroux T, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2012 Apr; 109(17):6733-8. PMID: 22493271
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are seven-transmembrane proteins that mediate most cellular responses to hormones and neurotransmitters, representing the largest group of therapeutic targets. Recent studies show that some GPCRs signal...

Bazzacco P, Billon-Denis E, Sharma K, Catoire L, Mary S, Le Bon C, et al.
Biochemistry . 2012 Feb; 51(7):1416-30. PMID: 22304405
Nonionic amphipols (NAPols) synthesized by homotelomerization of an amphiphatic monomer are able to keep membrane proteins (MPs) stable and functional in the absence of detergent. Some of their biochemical and...

Langmuir . 2012 Feb; 28(10):4625-39. PMID: 22299604
A novel type of nonionic amphipols for handling membrane proteins in detergent-free aqueous solutions has been obtained through free-radical homo-telomerization of an acrylamide-based monomer comprising a C(11) alkyl chain and...

Biochim Biophys Acta . 2012 Jan; 1818(3):798-805. PMID: 22226924
Structural studies of membrane protein are still challenging due to several severe bottlenecks, the first being the overproduction of well-folded proteins. Several expression systems are often explored in parallel to...

Solubilizing membrane proteins for functional, structural and thermodynamic studies is usually achieved with the help of detergents, which, however, tend to destabilize them. Several classes of non-detergent surfactants have been...
