Abstract excerpt
Caveolin-3 (Cav3) is an unconventional membrane protein that serves as a critical scaffolding hub in caveolae and is genetically linked to various muscle disorders. In this work, we report the expression, purification, and characterization of full-length human Cav3. To mimic the palmitoylation of endogenous Cav3, we developed a generally applicable approach to covalently attached thioalkyl chains at natively...
