Lipids are important body constituents that are vital for cellular, tissue, and whole-body homeostasis. Lipids serve as crucial membrane components, constitute the body's main energy reservoir, and are important signaling molecules. As a consequence of the ...
Cell membrane receptors and ion channels are essential in many different cellular processes. To analyse the activity of membrane proteins in vesicles and biological cells, we fabricated micro- nanostructured chips, enabling the application of electrophysio ...
Mutation of the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta/delta (PPARbeta/delta) severely affects placenta development, leading to embryonic death at embryonic day 9.5 (E9.5) to E10.5 of most, but not all, PPARbeta/delta-null mutant ...
The driving force for organo- or lithotrophic growth as well as for each step in the metabolic network is the Gibbs reaction energy. For each enzymic step it must be neg. Thermodn. contributes therefore to the in-silico description of living systems. It ma ...
In vivo 13C NMR spectroscopy has the unique capability to measure metabolic fluxes noninvasively in the brain. Quantitative measurements of metabolic fluxes require analysis of the 13C labeling time courses obtained experimentally with a metabolic model. T ...
Advancement of genomic research and anal. techniques enables an in-depth understanding of individual components in the cellular metab. The crit. subject is the integration of massive exptl. details and the quantification of the contributions of individual ...
Many mono or multicellular organisms secrete soluble proteins, referred to as protein toxins, which alter the behavior of foreign, or target cells, possibly leading to their death. These toxins affect either the cell membrane by forming pores or modifying ...
Many pathogenic organisms produce pore-forming toxins as virulence factors. Target cells however mount a response to such membrane damage. Here we show that toxin-induced membrane permeabilization leads to a decrease in cytoplasmic potassium, which promote ...
Bacterial metabolism has been studied intensively since the first observations of these 'animalcules' by Leeuwenhoek and their isolation in pure cultures by Pasteur. Metabolic studies have traditionally focused on a small number of model organisms, primari ...
Yeast metab. has been used extensively in scientific investigations and industrial applications. Understanding the properties of the yeast metabolic network is crucial, yet unaccomplished due to its high complexity, the different culture conditions, and th ...
