Highly efficient capillary electrochromatog. sepns. of cardiac glycosides and other steroids are presented. Employing butyl-derivatized silica particles as stationary phase resulted in a nearly three times faster electroosmotic flow (EOF) compared to capil ...
During the membrane insertion process the major coat protein of bacteriophage M13 assumes a conformation in which two transmembrane helixes corresponding to the leader sequence and the anchor region in the mature part of the protein coming into close conta ...
The outer membrane protein OmpF from Escherichia coli is a member of a large family of b-barrel membrane proteins. Some, like OmpF, are pore-forming proteins while others are active transporters or enzymes. We have previously shown that the receptor-bindin ...
A reporter assay was developed to detect and quantify nonsense codon suppression by chem. aminoacylated tRNAs in mammalian cells. It is based on the cellular expression of the enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) as a reporter for the site-specific am ...
Using transient expression, high amounts (>20 mg/mL) of secreted anti-human Rhesus-D IgG1 were produced in a suspension-adapted HEK293 EBNA cell line (Meissner et al., Biotechnol Bioeng 75: 197-203, 2001). Time of harvest was 3 days after transfection. For ...
We have measured fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between a fluorescent antagonist, bound to the purified detergent-solubilized serotonin type 3 receptor, and a lipophilic acceptor probe partitioned into the micelle surrounding the detergent-s ...
Gating of an artificial receptor was monitored for the first time by impedance spectroscopy in tethered lipid bilayer. Subnanomolar concns. of antibody were detected by modulation of the channel activity. The principle of gating by an antibody is particula ...
The invention concerns an assembly comprising: (a) means for determining the intensity of a plurality of electromagnetic signals, (b) a correlator for correlating or autocorrelating said signals, (c) means for continuously calculating the variance and/or t ...
Hydrophobins self assemble into amphipathic films at hydrophobic-hydrophilic interfaces. These proteins are involved in a broad range of processes in fungal development. We have studied the conformational changes that accompany the self-assembly of the hyd ...
The invention relates to various embodiments of a bioanal. reagent with at least one vesicle, generated from a living cell, and at least one receptor for study of signal transduction. The invention further relates to methods for prodn. of said bioanal. rea ...
