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.
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 ...
A fluorescently labeled ligand for the 5-HT3 serotonin receptor was synthesized and its sub-nanomolar affinity for the purified, detergent solubilized receptor was measured. The change in the ligand's fluorescence upon receptor binding was used to directly ...
A review with 6 refs. of the authors' work in developing a biophys. technique to investigate the structure, function and dynamics of membrane receptors. A fluorescence-based approach has been developed and applied to the prototypic G protein-coupled recept ...
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 ...
In this paper, we have investigated the effects of the pore-forming toxin aerolysin, produced by Aeromonas hydrophila, on mammalian cells. Our data indicate that the protoxin binds to an 80-kD glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein on BHK cel ...
Novel fluorescence approaches to investigate ligand recognition and structure of G protein-coupled receptors in native membranes have been developed. These methods combine the biosynthetic incorporation of unnatural fluorescent amino acids at known sites i ...
We have purified authentic CLIP-170 (cytoplasmic linker protein of 170 kDa) and fragments comprising functional domains of the protein to characterize the structural basis of the function of CLIP-170. Analysis of authentic CLIP-170 and the recombinant frag ...
Glycoprotein-associated amino acid transporters (gpaAT) are permease-related proteins that require heterodimerization to express their function. So far, four vertebrate gpaATs have been shown to associate with 4F2hc/CD98 for functional expression, whereas ...
The thermodn. and kinetics of ligand binding to the purified serotonin 5HT3 receptor and the local environment of the bound ligand were studied by fluorescence spectroscopy using a novel fluorescein-labeled ligand GR-flu [1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-3-[(5-methyl-1H ...
The authors probed the function of receptor protein OmpF by in situ measurement of both the binding of ligands by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and subsequent changes of the channel activity by impedance spectroscopy (IS). [on SciFinder (R)] ...
