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.
Aerolysin secreted by the human pathogen Aeromonas hydrophila belongs to a group of bacterial toxins that are hemolytic and form channels in biological membranes. The toxin is secreted as an inactive precursor proaerolysin that must be proteolytically proc ...
Lipophilicity of compounds with therapeutic interest represents one of the most important physicochemical parameters in predicting and interpreting transport processes across biological barriers. This property is commonly measured as a drug | membrane part ...
The phosphoinositides (PIs) are membrane phospholipids that actively operate at membrane-cytosol interfaces through the recruitment of a number of effector proteins. In this context, each of the seven different PI species represents a topological determina ...
Maintaining the integrity of their protective plasma membrane is a primary requirement of cells. Accordingly, cellular events that breach the membrane are tightly regulated1. Artificial vesicles used in drug delivery must also stay intact until they have r ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
To explore the real-time dynamic behavior of molecular transporters of the cell-penetrating-peptide (CPP) type on a biological membrane, single fluorescently labeled oligoarginine conjugates were imaged interacting with the plasma membrane of Chinese hamst ...
Membrane protein research depends largely on the availability of functional protein in an instrumental set-up for application of biophysical investigations. We used an in vitro synthesis strategy in the presence of a solid supported lipid membrane as a new ...
