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.
A review. The function of biol. important ion channels can be measured in supported lipid membranes by impedance spectroscopy. This approach offers substantial advantages over traditional electrophysiol. measurements. In this article, we present an overvie ...
Cell membrane receptors and ion channels are essential in many different cellular processes. To analyse the activity of membrane proteins in vesicles and biological cells, we fabricated micro- nanostructured chips, enabling the application of electrophysio ...
A method is presented to form gold-electrode-tethered lipid bilayers with exceptionally high elec. resistances. Elec. impedance spectroscopy is used to monitor the bilayer incorporation of a ligand-gated ion channel protein and the modulation of its channe ...
The invention relates to various embodiments of a bioanal. reagent with at least one vesicle, generated from a living cell, and at least one receptor for study of signal transduction. The invention further relates to methods for prodn. of said bioanal. rea ...

The subject of this thesis is the study of the structure and function of the human muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR), which is a typical member of the large class of ligand-gated ion channels. Appropriate techniques, like site-directed mutage ...
A review. The efficient anal. of the function of ion channels is an important task in many different fields ranging from (bio)analytics and drug-screening to nanoelectronics. Here, the modulation of the channel activity of a synthetic ligand gated ion chan ...
Proteolytic activation, oligomerization, and membrane insertion are three steps that precede channel formation by the bacterial toxin aerolysin. Using attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and hydrogen-deuterium exc ...
Two channels were observed in extracts of whole Mycobacterium bovis BCG cells using organic solvents and detergents. The channels derived from organic solvent treatment had a single-channel conductance of about 4.0 nS in 1 M KCl in lipid bilayer membranes ...
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 ...
Putative transmembrane helixes of membrane proteins in general and channel proteins in particular often contain proline residues which may induce a bend into an otherwise regular helical structure. Here, it is shown by fluorescence-energy-transfer measurem ...
