Effectiveness of dual-detergent strategy using Triton X-100 in membrane protein purification

Membrane solubilization by detergents is a critical step for successful membrane protein purification. Alkyl maltoside detergents such as DDM and DM are very expensive and are commonly used to produce most of the high-quality proteins in stable and functional form. Recently, dual-detergent strategy using inexpensive detergents for membrane solubilization step has been shown to be highly effective in purifying different classes of membrane...
