| W112 has been identified as buried in the hydrophobic core of phospholipid micelles or bicelles (Hong et al. 2002, Anderluh et al. 2005), which is consistent with the set of calculated buried residues P81, V82 and W112. Maximal membrane binding affinity is -11 kcal/mol (Hong et al. 2002), which is much higher than calculated transfer energy probably due to strong specific binding of sphingomyelin (Anderluh et al. 2005). This protein undergoes major conformational changes and oligomerization upon asociation with membranes. |
