The foundations for fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) were already laid in the early 1970s, but this technique did not become widely used until single-molecule detection was established almost 20 years later with the use of diffraction-limited co ...
The nicotinic acetylcholine receptor from Torpedo was immobilised in tethered membranes. Surface plasmon resonance was used to quantify the binding of ligands and antibodies to the receptor. The orientation and structural integrity of the surface-reconstit ...
The 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor of type 3 was investigated by fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS). Binding constants of fluorescently labeled ligands, the stoichiometry, and the mass of the receptor are readily accessible by this technique, while ...
Reversible and oriented immobilization of proteins in a functionally active form on solid surfaces is a prerequisite for the investigation of mol. interactions by surface-sensitive techniques. We demonstrate a method generally applicable for the attachment ...
Olfaction, the detection of odorous chemicals in the environment, is one of the oldest mammalian sensory systems and involves large number (up to 1000) of distinct G protein coupled olfactory receptors (OR). The chemical interaction of volatile molecules w ...
NOVELTY - Determining a receptor-ligand interaction involves repeatedly contacting a cell comprising a receptor, with a ligand, of the receptor in which the ligand has a fluorescence labeling group and binds reversibly to the receptor under conditions in w ...
The importance of protein kinases in cell signaling and cell cycle control has led to detailed structural and functional studies in various eukaryotes, and hence to the synthesis of specific chemical inhibitors for managing disease. Here, the current progr ...
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) represent a large family of drug targets for which there is no high-resolution structural information. In order to understand the mechanisms of ligand recognition and receptor activation, there is a strong need for novel ...
Seven different human interferon (IFN) alpha subtypes were compared with regard to competitive inhibition of specific high-affinity binding of 125I-labeled IFN alpha-2 to human and bovine cells. All IFNs tested (alpha-1, -2, -4, -5, -6, -7, -8) competed fo ...
