Abstract

We present here a generalized strategy for immobilizing uniformly oriented membrane proteins onto a functionalized surface. Using water soluble nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA)-terminated oligo(ethylene glycol) thiols, a histidine-tagged G protein-coupled membrane receptor (GPCR) was captured in a defined orientation with little nonspecific binding.
