In case you end up compiling your own list, here is one entry:

von Jagow and co-workers (Biochim Biophys Acta. 1977 462(3):549-58.)
used tritiated Triton X-100 to measure the binding to Complex III

 "5. In accordance with the high polarity the amount of bound
 detergent is relatively low, it amounts to 0.2 g Triton X-100/g
 protein. The amount of Triton bound to 1 mol of b-c1-dimer corresponds
 to the molecular weight of the Triton micelle."

The bc1 dimer MW is ~480 kDa, so .2 g/g -> 96 kDa detergent

Dear Crystallographers,

I am trying to gather literature values on the size of the detergent/micelle belts on solublized membrane proteins. Does anybody know of a good repository of this info, whether as a database or as a review paper, or otherwise? The rough values of 15-25kD to 35-50kD were given in one recent BB posting, but I was looking for a more systematic tabulation...

Thanks,

Jacob Keller
