Partial proteolysis improves the identification of the extracellular segments of transmembrane proteins by surface biotinylation

Abstract Transmembrane proteins (TMP) play a crucial role in several physiological processes. Despite their importance and diversity, only a few TMP structures have been determined by high-resolution protein structure characterization methods so far. Due to the low number of determined TMP structure...
