The aim of hydrophobic labelling of membranes is to identify those domains of membrane proteins embedded in the lipid core. By using photoreactive reagents capable of reacting within the apolar and mostly inert lipid phase of membranes, this technique is a useful complement to existing methods for labelling membrane surface.During the past few years, an organochemical approach has been developed to specifically label those domains of integral membrane proteins that penetrate the lipid matrix of a biological membrane. In this article some of the principal aspects of hydrophobic labelling are discussed and the various types of reagents used for this purpose are compared.
