Model Lipid Raft Membranes for Embedding Integral Membrane Proteins : Reconstitution of HMG-CoA Reductase and Its Inhibition by Statins

For the first time, HMG-CoA reductase, the membrane protein responsible for cholesterol synthesis, was incorporated into a lipid membrane consisting of DOPC:Chol:SM at a 1:1:1 molar ratio, which mimics the lipid rafts of cell membranes. The membrane containing the protein was generated in the form o...
