  "summary": "Although surfactant protein-B (SP-B) is essential for pulmonary surfactant function, the experimental structure of mature SP-B remains undetermined, and the molecular basis of its function is unclear. Here, we characterize the structural and functional behavior of a recombinant SP-B construct (rSP-B) in DPC/SDS detergent micelles and DPPC/POPG lipid monolayers. Light scattering showed that dilute…",
