Abstract excerpt
Processes involved in the functional formation of prokaryotic membrane proteins have remained elusive. Here, we developed a new in vitro membrane protein expression system to detect nascent activities of the KcsA potassium channel in lipid bilayers under an applied membrane potential. The channel was synthesized using a reconstituted Escherichia coli-based in vitro transcription/translation system (IVTT) in a...
