Abstract
The present disclosure relates to novel liposome compositions and methods for their preparation. Utilization of the present invention provides an efficient reconstitution of membrane proteins into large (0.1 to 2 micron diameter) phospholipid vesicles with a large, internal aqueous space. The method has been exemplified with the use of glycoproteins of influenza (A/PR8/34) and Sendai (parainfluenza type I) viruses. The method comprises (A) extracting out the desired membrane protein from a source biological material with an extraction buffer comprising a detergent; (B) mixing the extract with a phospholipid solution and deriving a cochleate intermediate; and (C) forming large phospholipid vesicles with integrated membrane protein in a biologically active state.
