Abstract excerpt
The TOXCAT assay system developed by Russ and Engelman [TOXCAT: a measure of transmembrane helix association in a biological membrane, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 96 (1999) 863-868] provides an in vivo means of selecting for and evaluating the strength of interaction between identical transmembrane alpha-helices. In the course of utilizing TOXCAT to study the architecture of a sodium channel hNa(V)1.5, an...
