Graph Chatbot
Chattez avec Graph Search
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.
Molecular interactions of odorants with their olfactory receptors (ORs) are of central importance for the mammalian olfactory system to detect and discriminate a large variety of odors with a limited set of receptors. How a particular OR binds and distingu ...
Understanding the binding mode of agonists to adrenergic receptors is crucial to enabling improved rational design of new therapeutic agents. However, so far the high conformational flexibility of G protein-coupled receptors has been an obstacle to obtaini ...
Heavy metal compounds have toxic and medicinal potential through capacity to form strong specific bonds with macromolecules, and the interaction of platinum drugs at the major groove nitrogen atom of guanine bases primarily underlies their therapeutic acti ...
It is well recognized that base sequence exerts a significant influence on the properties of DNA and plays a significant role in protein-DNA interactions vital for cellular processes. Understanding and predicting base sequence effects requires an extensive ...
Organometallic ruthenium(II)-arene (RA) antitumour compounds of the general type [Ru(II)(η6-arene)(X)2(pta)], RA-pta, and [Ru(II)(η6-arene)X(en)], RA-en, (X=leaving group; pta=1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane, en=ethylenediamine) have been investigated com ...
A biomimetic four-helix bundle with a binuclear active site (DF1), bearing Zn, Mn or Fe as transition metals, has been synthesized and characterized. The carboxylate bridged binuclear motif of DF1 resembles the active site of numerous binuclear enzymes, su ...
Duocarmycins are a potent class of antitumor agents. Their activity arises by their covalent binding to adenine nucleobases of DNA. We use classical mol. dynamics and hybrid (QM/MM) Car-Parrinello mol. dynamics simulations to study non-covalent and covalen ...
We use the multiscale simulation approach, which combines the first-principles calculations and grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations, to comprehensively study the doping of a series of alkali (Li, Na, and K), alkaline-earth (Be, Mg, and Ca), and transit ...
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 ...
Organometallic ruthenium(II)-arene complexes are currently attracting increasing interest as anticancer compds. with the potential to overcome drawbacks of traditional drugs like cisplatin with respect to resistance, selectivity, and toxicity. Rational des ...
