A DNA sequence encoding the Human SLC1A5(Q15758) Met1-Met541 was expressed with a His tag at the N-terminus and a Flag tag at the C-terminus This protein was prepared using our Nanodisc platform Nanodisc is a versatile tool for studying membrane proteins Using styrene-maleic acid (SMA) copolymer membrane proteins can be extracted directly from prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression systems in the absence of detergents to preserve the protein structure and function better Compared to membrane scaffold proteins (MSPs) nanodiscs SMA nanodiscs also have the advantage of preserving proteins nature by maintaining native lipids surrounded without introducing any heterologous proteins which allows studies of protein structure and functions in a native-like environment
