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.
Alpha-synuclein (ASYN) is a major constituent of the typical protein aggregates observed in several neurodegenerative diseases that are collectively referred to as synucleinopathies. A causal involvement of ASYN in the initiation and progression of neurolo ...
We developed Al2O3/W heterogeneous nanopore arrays for field effect modulated nanofluidic diodes. They are fabricated by transferring self-organized nanopores of anodic aluminium oxide into a W thin film. The nanopores are ∼20 nm in diameter and 400 nm in ...
For cells to function properly(1), membrane proteins must be able to diffuse within biological membranes. The functions of these membrane proteins depend on their position and also on protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions(2). However, so far, it h ...
The 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 receptor (5-HT3R) is a member of the pentameric ligand-gated ion channel (pLGIC) family, that plays an important role in fast signal transduction and cell-cell communication in synapses: They convert a chemical signal from a neuro ...
In recent years, research has highlighted that breast milk with higher concentrations of lipid and protein could benefit to the survival rate and quality of life of preterm infants. However, to date, there is no clinical means available to separate, concen ...
S-palmitoylation is post-translational modification, which consists in the addition of a C16 acyl chain to cytosolic cysteines and which is unique amongst lipid modifications in that it is reversible. It can thus, like phosphorylation or ubiquitination, ac ...
2D crystallography has proven to be an excellent technique to determine the 3D structure of membrane proteins. Compared to 3D crystallography, it has the advantage of visualizing the protein in an environment closer to the native one. However, producing go ...
Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) subvirus particles produced from yeast share immunological determinants with mature viruses, which enable the use of HBsAg as a potent antigen for human vaccination. Because the intimate structure of such pseudoviral par ...
The hepatic lipid content and composition were assessed in healthy mice throughout adulthood. It was found that aging and obesity contributed to increase the amount of lipids in the liver while decreasing the poly-unsaturation degree. The combination of in ...
The packing structures of transmembrane helices are traditionally attributed to patterns in residues along the contact surface. In this view, besides keeping the helices confined in the membrane, the bilayer has only a minor effect on the helices structure ...
