Fig. 3 Effects of Additives on the Thermostability of zfP2X4 (A) The normalized peak heights from EGFP-fusion ΔP2X4-A, heat-treated at 50°C for 10 min, in the presence of the respective additives. The peak heights were normalized to that from the sample at 4°C without any additive. (B–D) Chemical structures of novel cholesterol derivatives, hexaethyleneglycol hydroxyethyl cholesterol (B) maltoside hydroxyethyl cholesterol (C), and phosphocholine hydroxyethyl cholesterol (D), employed in the FSEC-TS studies are shown. Structures were created using the ChemDraw (Cambridge Scientific Computing). See also Figure S2 and Table S1.
