Membrane proteins fulfill many central functions in the biological membrane. The insertion process of these proteins and their structure, which are intimately linked to their function, are not yet well understood. As a model we studied three proteins recon ...
A review with 130 refs. on optical techniques such as total internal reflection fluorescence, waveguides, and SPR for the detection of mol. interactions of membrane receptors. The outlook on how these emerging techniques may be applied to solve important q ...
The formation of supported lipid layers incorporating promastigote surface protease (PSP), a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein, is investigated using surface plasmon resonance. Both hydrophilic and hydrophobic substrates are used for the format ...
The controlled incorporation of polypeptides and proteins into micropatterened lipid mono- and bilayers on solid supports provide important understanding of the structural organization of membrane components and have potential applications in such fields a ...
Conformational changes occurring upon membrane binding and subsequent insertion of staphylococcal alpha-toxin were studied using complementary spectroscopic techniques. Experimental conditions were established where binding could be uncoupled from membrane ...
Benzene and all mono-, di-, tri, tetra-, and pentafluoro-substituted derivs. thereof were equilibrated with the corresponding aryl anions in the gas phase. Perfect additivity of the substituent effects on the acidity was obsd. The basicities were diminishe ...
The F0F1 ATP synthase of chloroplasts was imaged using atomic force microscopy (AFM) in contact mode under physiological conditions. Chloroplast (CF0F1) ATP synthases were reconstituted into liposomes, Liposomes were adsorbed on a mica surface where they s ...
In a recent paper, a new class of synthetic lipids, which self-assemble to form monolayers on gold surfaces, was introduced. The addn. of a monolayer of phospholipids to these layers results in robust supported lipid bilayers designed to reconstitute trans ...
A new method was presented to investigate the interactions between membrane receptors and their ligands in an artificial, reconstituted membrane system. Lipid bilayers were anchored via covalently attached thiolipids to TiO2/SiO2 waveguide surfaces to prod ...
A review with many refs. Ammonia has been reported to be toxic and inhibitory for mammalian cell cultures for many years. Redn. of growth rates and maximal cell densities in batch cultures, changes in metabolic rates, perturbation of protein processing and ...
