Somebody knows the distance to which a lipid membrane to be placed against a muscarinic receptor in an in silico model?

15 July 2014 1 8K Report

I am developing a in silico model of the acetylcholine receptor immersed in a POPC membrane

You have to do a data mining to find an appropriate distance for your protein. A precise protein topology is important for the insertion. For instance, all membrane-spanning domains should be within the POPC membrane.
