ABSTRACT:
In a method for production of membrane proteins or receptors folded into their native structure, first, proteins solubilized in a first detergent are provided. To induce folding of proteins into their native form, the first detergent is exchanged for a second detergent. Both for the first and for the second detergent, examples are shown.
