Refolding and characterization of two G protein-coupled receptors purified from E. coli inclusion bodies.

Aiming at streamlining GPCR production from E. coli inclusion bodies for structural analysis, we present a generic approach to assess and optimize refolding yield through thermostability analysis. Since commonly used hydrophobic dyes cannot be applied as probes for membrane protein unfolding, we ada...
