What Are the Challenges in Studying Protein Complexes?
Studying protein complexes presents several challenges:
1. Complexity: The large number of subunits and interactions can make it difficult to isolate and characterize individual components. 2. Stability: Protein complexes can be unstable outside of their native environments, complicating experimental analyses. 3. Functional Assays: Developing assays to measure the catalytic activity of complexes in vitro can be challenging.
