Identification of a troponin-I like protein in platelet preparations as histone H2B.

abstract：:Insolubility in non-ionic detergents such as Triton X-100 is a widely used biochemical criterion for characterization of membrane domains. We report here a novel green fluorescent protein fluorescence-based approach to directly determine detergent insolubility of specific membrane proteins. We have applied this method...
