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.
How membrane receptors transduce external signals across the membrane and activate intracellular processes is a key question for fundamental research and for therapeutic purposes. Reliable in situ investigations requiest to preserve the full biological act ...
Several recent reports have indicated that some bacteria may have adapted to the low bioavailability of hydrophobic environmental chemicals and that generalizations about the bioavailability of compounds such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) may ...
Tumor necrosis factor TNF can trigger increases in membrane conductance of mammalian cells in a receptor-independent manner via its lectin-like domain. A lectin-deficient TNF mutant, lacking this activity, was able to bind to artificial liposomes in a pH-d ...
A new method was presented to investigate the interactions between membrane receptors and their ligands in an artificial, reconstituted membrane system. Lipid bilayers were anchored via covalently attached thiolipids to TiO2/SiO2 waveguide surfaces to prod ...
The ionotropic 5HT3 receptor was expressed in transiently transfected mammalian cells, yielding an unprecedented high concn. of up to 12 million receptors per cell. Receptor traffic in the plasma membrane of live cells was obsd. continuously over 24 h by f ...
To illuminate the effect of titanium particles on osteoblast function, we compared the adhesion force of neonatal rat calvarial osteoblasts on fibronectin-coated glass after incubation with titanium particles (80% had diameters of less than 5 microm). The ...
Aerolysin is one of a large group of bacterial proteins that can kill target cells by forming discrete channels in their plasma membranes. The toxin has many properties in common with the porins of the Gram-negative bacterial outer membrane, including an e ...
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute a large class of seven transmembrane proteins, which bind selectively agonists or antagonists with important consequences for cellular signaling and function. Comprehension of the mol. details of ligand bindin ...
Proteins exist in one of two generally incompatible states: either membrane associated or soluble. Pore-forming proteins are exceptional because they are synthesized as a water-soluble molecule but end up being located in the membrane -- that is, they are ...
Material surfaces that can mediate cellular interactions by the coupling of specific cell membrane receptors may allow for the design of a biomaterial that can control cell attachment, differentiation, and tissue organization. Cell adhesion proteins have b ...
