Understanding membrane protein structure by design.
In contrast to soluble proteins, the primary interactions that specify and stabilize membrane protein structures are still largely a matter of speculation. Although van der Waals interactions have been gaining increasing favor as the dominant player, new results demonstrate the strength of hydrogen bonding in a membrane environment.
