Application
Lipodisq® has been used in nanoparticle preparation along with palmitoyloleoylphosphatidylcholine (POPC) and palmitoyloleoyl phosphatidylglycerol (POPG).
Lipodisq® reagents are novel polymers derived from styrene and maleic acid. Lipodisq polymers are capable of forming nanosized lipid-based discoidal particles capable of incorporating membrane proteins. The Lipodisq technology can solubilize commonly used lipids such as dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) without the use of detergents. In general, Lipodisq polymers are potentially useful in mitigating the use of detergents for the solubilization of membrane proteins. Lipodisqs typically have a diameter of 9-10 nm at pH 7.4.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Lipodisq® is detergent-free and is useful in membrane protein biophysical studies including electron microscopy (EM), circular dichroism (CD), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques as well as delivery vehicle.

Dopamine receptors (DRs) are class A G-Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) prevalent in the central nervous system (CNS). These receptors mediate physiological functions ranging from voluntary movement and reward recognition to hormonal regulation and hypertension. Drugs targeting dopaminergic neurotransmission have been

Nanoparticles assembled with poly(styrene-maleic acid) copolymers, identified in the literature as Lipodisq, SMALPs or Native Nanodisc, are routinely used as membrane mimetics to stabilise protein structures in their native conformation. To date, transmembrane proteins of varying complexity (up to 8
