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.
Conformational changes occurring upon membrane binding and subsequent insertion of staphylococcal alpha-toxin were studied using complementary spectroscopic techniques. Experimental conditions were established where binding could be uncoupled from membrane ...
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 ...
In a recent paper, a new class of synthetic lipids, which self-assemble to form monolayers on gold surfaces, was introduced. The addn. of a monolayer of phospholipids to these layers results in robust supported lipid bilayers designed to reconstitute trans ...
A new class of lipid mols. is synthesized, based on two dipalmitoylphosphatidic mols., each extended at the lipid phosphate by a hydrophilic spacer chain of ethoxy groups of variable length, which are then coupled as a bilipid via a terminal disulfide grou ...
Membrane proteins fulfill many central functions in the biological membrane. The insertion process of these proteins and their structure, which are intimately linked to their function, are not yet well understood. As a model we studied three proteins recon ...
For the first time, the std. free energy change, DG Deg, of a membrane-inserting protein with a leader sequence has been detd. exptl., using M13 procoat protein as an example. The partition coeff. for the distribution of the procoat protein between the aq. ...
We demonstrate that the combined application of Langmuir-Blodgett and self-assembly techniques allows the fabrication of patterns with contrasting surface properties on gold substrates. The process is monitored using fluoroscence microscopy and surface pla ...
The controlled incorporation of polypeptides and proteins into micropatterened lipid mono- and bilayers on solid supports provide important understanding of the structural organization of membrane components and have potential applications in such fields a ...
In this work, the specific and nonspecific binding of proteins to planar surfaces was investigated. The surfaces were first modified by the spontaneous adsorption of a number of synthesized 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine lipids with different ...
The formation of supported lipid layers incorporating promastigote surface protease (PSP), a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein, is investigated using surface plasmon resonance. Both hydrophilic and hydrophobic substrates are used for the format ...
