## Abstract Transmembrane domains (TMDs) of G‐protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) have very low water solubility and often aggregate during purification and biophysical investigations. To circumvent this problem many laboratories add oligolysines to the __N__‐ and __C__‐termini of peptides that corre
