Summary: |
Titin is a giant filamentous protein of striated muscle composed of >300 immunoglobulin-like domains linked in tandem. Here, we demonstrate that a six-immunoglobulin fragment of titin carrying a poly-histidine tag forms a protein "brush" on liposomes containing metallochelating lipids. These specimens might allow the direct visualization by cryo-EM of frozen hydrated and unstained titin chains with preserved architectural features.
