TOXCAT: a measure of transmembrane helix association in a biological membrane

WP Russ, DM Engelman - Proceedings of the National …, 1999 - National Acad Sciences
The noncovalent association of transmembrane α-helices is a fundamental event in the
folding of helical membrane proteins. In this work, a system (TOXCAT) is developed for the …

Are membrane proteins “inside‐out” proteins?

TJ Stevens, IT Arkin - Proteins: Structure, Function, and …, 1999 - Wiley Online Library
One of the central paradigms of structural biology is that membrane proteins are ''inside-
out''proteins, in that they have a core of polar residues surrounded by apolar residues. This …
