Detergent-free mass spectrometry of membrane protein complexes.

abstract：:RNAs are ideal for the design of gene switches that can monitor and program cellular behavior because of their high modularity and predictable structure-function relationship. We have assembled an expression platform with an embedded modular ribozyme scaffold that correlates self-cleavage activity of designer ribozyme...
