摘要
In the present study, purified prestin was observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). First, the lipid bilayer was formed on a freshly cleaved mica disk by the deposition of small unilamellar lipid vesicles. Such bilayer was destabilized by incubation with a detergent. Afterward, purified prestin was added to the destabilized lipid bilayer. Finally, a high resolution image of the prestin-reconstituted lipid bilayer was acquired by AFM. As a result, densely embedded prestin with a diameter of 11.0 +/- 1.3 nm was visualized. From the obtained image, cytoplasmic side of prestin was found to form a ring-like structure with four peaks and one valley at its center.
