摘要
(Figure Presented) Observed from above: A cysteine mutation in a membrane protein enables it to be fixed in a defined orientation on flat gold surfaces (see picture, left). Subsequent coassembly with thiolipids produces clearly defined, immobilized proteins. Analysis by atomic force microscopy provides topographs of similar quality to those revealed from 2D crystals. © 2006 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
