Competing Interests
The authors have read the journal's policy and have the following conflicts: JK and FS are employees of QIAGEN, which sells products for crystallization of membrane proteins. JK, GB, FS, and JL also declare competing interests in the form of a pending relevant PCT patent application, no. WO2010037510. This does not alter the authors' adherence to all the PLoS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
