Abstract: The present invention relates to: amphipathic compounds derived from 1,3-acetonedicarboxylate; a preparation method therefor; and a method for extracting, solubilizing, stabilizing, crystallizing or analyzing membrane proteins by using the same. In addition, the compound enables membrane proteins, which have various structures and characteristics, to be efficiently extracted from cell membranes and stably stored in an aqueous solution for a long time, compared to a conventional compound, thereby being usable in functional and structural analysis thereof. Analyzing the structure and function of membrane proteins is closely related to the development of a novel drug, and thus is one of the greatest interests in the biology and chemistry fields.
