  • Amphiphiles for protein solubilization and stabilization
    Patent number: 8877906
    Abstract: The invention provides amphiphiles for manipulating membrane proteins. The amphiphiles can feature carbohydrate-derived hydrophilic groups and branchpoints in the hydrophilic moiety and/or in a lipophilic moiety. Such amphiphiles are useful as detergents for solubilization and stabilization of membrane proteins, including photosynthetic protein superassemblies obtained from bacterial membranes.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 10, 2012
    Date of Patent: November 4, 2014
    Assignees: Wisconsin Aumni Research Foundation, UChicago Argonne, LLC
