Abstract excerpt
Fragments of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are widely used as models to investigate these polytopic integral-membrane, signal-transducing molecules, but have proven difficult to prepare in quantities necessary for NMR analyses. We report on the biosynthesis of two double transmembrane (TM) containing fragments of Ste2p, the alpha-factor GPCR from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Ste2p(G31-T110) [TM1-TM2]...
