Characterization of membrane proteins in isolated native cellular membranes by dynamic nuclear polarization solid-state NMR spectroscopy without purification and reconstitution.
Membrane proteins in their native cellular membranes are accessible by dynamic nuclear polarization magic angle spinning solid-state NMR spectroscopy without the need of purification and reconstitution (see picture). Dynamic nuclear polarization is essential to achieve the required gain in sensitivity to observe the membrane protein of interest.
