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.
This contribution summarizes first some of our efforts in imaging G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) functional inserted into planar tethered lipid bilayer membranes (tBLMs) as a novel platform for biophysical studies. The authors introduced recently a nove ...
The animal olfactory system represents the gold standard of biosensors, due to its ability to identify and discriminate thousands of odorant compounds with very low thresholds. Using olfactory receptors (ORs) as sensing elements instead of chemical sensors ...
Understanding the functional dynamics of ligand-gated ion-channels (LGIC's) on the molecular level is the aim of this thesis. Members of the protein family of LGIC's are involved in the fast synaptic signal transmission and thereby play a central role in i ...
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 ...
Olfaction and the olfactory pathway is a good system to study sensory processing in general, mainly because of the simplified organization of the cells constituting the olfactory bulb, the anatomical structure responsible for early odor encoding and proces ...
Much information is conveyed to animals by the diverse molecules propagated in their environment. This information is transmitted and treated within the olfactory system to be utilized by the rest of the brain. In this process, the sensory flow arriving fr ...
Optical imaging techniques offer powerful solutions to capture brain networks processing in animals, especially when activity is distributed in functionally distinct spatial domains. Despite the progress in imaging techniques, the standard analysis procedu ...
Cyclodepsipeptides incorporating a sugar amino acid, e.g., I, have been synthesized. A three-component reaction of a sugar amino acid (SAA) deriv., an aldehyde, and a dipeptide isonitrile in refluxing methanol afforded the corresponding 5-aminooxazole whic ...
The olfactory system is a highly specialized chemodetector capable of discriminating between thousands of volatile chemical substances. This enormous capacity of chemical recognition is based on a large family of olfactory receptors (ORs). Despite the fact ...
The animal olfactory system represents the gold standard of olfactory biosensors with its capability to identify and discriminate thousands of odorant compounds. In order to mimic the performances of natural olfactory sensors it is necessary to develop met ...
