MspA - Mycobacterial Porin
Orbit 16 and applications:
Data were kindly provided by Ionera.
Screenshot of the recording window showing simultaneous and parallel assay of channel-forming activity and single-channel conductance of recombinant MspA mutant porin in a diphytanoyl phosphatidylcholine bilayer derived in 1 experimental run with the Orbit 16.
Traces from a single experiment recorded in parallel from 16 lipid bilayers. Grids X: 1 s; Y: 100 pA. Addition of MspA in OPOE detergent micelles resulted in insertion of 97 pores in 12 bilayers.
Conditions: 20 mM HEPES, 350 mM KCl, pH 7,5, rMspA final concentration 20 ng/ml; holding potential +40 mV
