Method for forming proteoliposome and method for forming giant proteoliposome

摘要

A method for forming a proteoliposome comprises incorporating into a liposome a membrane protein combined with a carrier. Further, a method for preparing a giant proteoliposome, comprises freezing and thawing an alkali metal salt solution containing a membrane protein and a lipid, and subsequently dialyzing against a second salt solution or a buffer solution having a lower osmotic pressure than that of said alkali metal salt solution. Further, a method for forming a proteoliposome, comprises freezing and thawing an alkali metal salt solution containing a membrane protein combined with a carrier and a lipid.
