Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The coat protein of bacteriophage Pf3 forms discrete and stable ion channels of uniform size in planar bilayers of asolectin. Its primary sequence suggests a channel formed by a bundle of transmembrane helixes. Since the apparent transmembrane region only ...
Tumor necrosis factor TNF can trigger increases in membrane conductance of mammalian cells in a receptor-independent manner via its lectin-like domain. A lectin-deficient TNF mutant, lacking this activity, was able to bind to artificial liposomes in a pH-d ...
Aerolysin is a cytolytic toxin which forms channels in the plasma membranes of eucaryotic cells. The protein is secreted by Aeromonas hydrophila as an inactive protoxin. Its stability and water solubility are conferred by its ability to dimerize. Maturatio ...
A symposium report. The total synthesis of melittin-TASP, T4-(4a26) (TASP = template assembled synthetic proteins) is described together with its structural and ion-channel forming properties in planar lipid bilayers. A voltage-dependent channel activity i ...
The lethal, cytolytic alpha-toxin (phospholipase C) of Clostridium perfringens consists of two distinct modules: the larger N-terminal domain catalyses phospholipid hydrolysis, and its activity is potentiated by a smaller C-terminal domain. Calcium ions ar ...
Aerolysin is one of a large group of bacterial proteins that can kill target cells by forming discrete channels in their plasma membranes. The toxin has many properties in common with the porins of the Gram-negative bacterial outer membrane, including an e ...
Under the double-patch configuration, stepwise closing unitary events could be observed in the on-cell patch upon applications of large positive potentials only when inactivating whole-cell Cl- currents were simultaneously observed in cultured human epithe ...
Three functions have been suggested to be localized in contact sites between the inner and the outer membrane of mitochondria from mammalian cells: (i) transfer of energy from matrix to cytosol through the action of peripheral kinases; (ii) import of mitoc ...
A Ca2+ sensor based on the admittance change of synthetic membranes supported on derivatized silicon electrodes is reported. The ion-sensitive membranes consist of mixed monolayers of phospholipid and the Ca2+-ligand ETH 1001. The electrodes are characteri ...
The DNA sequence of the entire colicin E2 operon was determined. The operon comprises the colicin activity gene, ceaB, the colicin immunity gene, ceiB, and the lysis gene, celB, which is essential for colicin release from producing cells. A potential LexA ...
