The shape of a membrane protein derived from rotational diffusion

F Jähnig. Eur Biophys J. 1986.

Abstract

Membrane proteins are modelled as cylinders with an elliptic cross-section in the plane of the membrane. The coefficient for rotational diffusion about the cylinder axis is calculated as a function of the axial ratio of the elliptic cross-section.
