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.
Electron crystallography determines the structure of two-dimensional (2D) membrane protein crystals and other 2D crystal systems. Cryotransmission electron microscopy records high-resolution electron micrographs, which require computer processing for three ...
Aquaporins are transmembrane water channel proteins, which play important functions in the osmoregulation and water balance of microorganisms, plants, and animal tissues. All aquaporins studied to date are thought to be tetrameric assemblies of four subuni ...
The rotor stoichiometry of F-ATPases has been revealed by the combined approaches of X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron crystallography, and atomic force microscopy (AFM). XRD showed the rotor from the yeast mitochondrial F-ATPase to contain 10 subunits. AF ...
Electron crystallography determines the structure of membrane proteins and other periodic samples by recording either images or diffraction patterns. Computer processing of recorded images requires the determination of the reciprocal lattice parameters in ...
Proteins from cisplatin treated bacterial cells were partially separated by 1D polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and analysed by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry; using peptide fingerprinting methods central to proteomics, the b ...
Electron crystallography determines the structure of membrane embedded proteins in the two-dimensionally crystallized state by cryo-transmission electron microscopy imaging and computer structure reconstruction. Milestones on the path to the structure are ...
Structural information on membrane proteins is sparse, yet they represent an important class of proteins that is encoded by about 30% of all genes. Progress has primarily been achieved with bacterial proteins, but efforts to solve the structure of eukaryot ...
Tyrosinase is a type I membrane protein found in melanosomes, which are lysosomal-like organelles and specific for pigment cells. A mutation of mouse tyrosinase, platinum (cp), leads to truncation of tyrosinase's cytosolic tail, and results in misrouting t ...
The screening of ligands for membrane receptor proteins is central to the discovery of new pharmaceutical drugs. We present a general method to reversibly attach receptor proteins via an affinity tag to a quartz surface and subsequently detect with high se ...
Aquaporins form a large family of membrane channels involved in osmoregulation, Electron crystallography has shown monomers to consist of six membrane spanning a-helices confirming sequence based predictions. Surface exposed loops are the least conserved r ...
