About this Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology article

Lipid–protein interactions with the Na,K-ATPase by Mikael Esmann; Derek Marsh is a Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology article available to read on EtoBox.

Studies of lipid interactions with membranous Na,K-ATPase by using electron spin resonance spectroscopy in conjunction with spin-labelled lipids are reviewed. The lipid stoichiometry, selectivity and exchange dynamics at the lipid-protein interface can be determined, in addition to information on the configuration and rotational dynamics of the protein-associated lipid chains. These parameters, particularly the stoichiometry and selectivity, are related directly to the intramembranous structure of the Na,K-ATPase, and can be used to check the integrity of extensively trypsinised preparations.

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology.
