Abstract
When LacP was reconstituted in 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) liposomes, the proteolipid sheets were densely packed with an upper layer that protruded from a background layer. Several lipid protein molar ratios (LPR) were screened. High resolution analysis of the upper layer revealed a quasi-crystalline arrangement formed by small entities that could be attributed to the protein. The approach described here may be suitable for the rational design of biosensors based in other transmembrane proteins.
