Abstrakt: This protocol describes the expression and analysis of membrane proteins produced in yeast, as illustrated with Yarrowia lipolytica and Pichia pastoris. Step by step, we explain how to generate a yeast strain expressing the membrane protein of interest, how to prepare a membrane protein sample from yeast, and how to analyze the expression levels using SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. In the final section, we describe how to perform a radioligand binding assay, which quantifies the amount of the protein folded in a ligand-binding competent state.
