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.
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are important targets for treating severe diseases. However why certain molecules act as activators whereas others, with similar structures, block GPCR activation, is poorly understood since the same molecule can activat ...
The question how G-protein-coupled receptors transduce an extracellular signal by a sequence of transmembrane conformational transitions into an intracellular response remains to be solved at molecular detail. Herein, we use molecular dynamics simulations ...
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are ubiquitous mediators of signal transduction across cell membranes and constitute a very important class of therapeutic targets. The main mechanisms involving GPCR activation and signal transduction to the cell interi ...
TGR5 is a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) mediating cellular responses to bile acids (BAs). Although some efforts have been devoted to generate homology models of TGR5 and draw structure-activity relationships of BAs, none of these studies has hitherto d ...
Cell surface receptors allowthe cell to sense and respond to external signals. Receptor malfunctions are associated with many diseases. The diffusional behavior of receptors is of particular interest to understand how the cell modulates receptor function i ...
RCS-4 [(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-yl-(1-pentyl-1H-indol-3-yl)methanone] represents the first of several N-alkyl-3-(methoxybenzoyl)indoles identified by forensic scientists as synthetic cannabinoid (SC) designer drugs. Despite the detection of RCS-4 and several an ...
G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large eukaryotic protein family of transmembrane receptors that react to a signal coming from the extracellular environment to generate an intracellular response through the activation of a signal transduction path ...
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a lysophospholipid mediator which activates G protein-coupled sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors and thus evokes a variety of cell and tissue responses including lymphocyte trafficking, endothelial development, integrity, an ...
Cellular signaling is classically investigated by measuring optical or electrical properties of single or populations of living cells. Here we show that ligand binding to cell surface receptors and subsequent activation of signaling cascades can be monitor ...
Studying the complex mechanisms of transducing an extracellular signal across a plasma membrane to initiate an intracellular responce is of fundamental importance for a cell’s function. Transmembrane signaling is the key allowing cells to sense and communi ...
