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.
The subject of this thesis is the study of the structure and function of the human muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR), which is a typical member of the large class of ligand-gated ion channels. Appropriate techniques, like site-directed mutage ...
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 ...
Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS) is a suitable technique to investigate biomol. interactions. The advantage of FCS lies in its wide dynamic range in the time and concn. domain, its sensitivity, and thus in the small amt. of material needed. The ...
Sequential stages in the life cycle of the ionotropic 5-HT3 receptor (5-HT3R) were resolved temporally and spatially in live cells by multicolor fluorescence confocal microscopy. The insertion of the enhanced cyan fluorescent protein into the large intrace ...
The nicotinic acetylcholine receptor from Torpedo was immobilised in tethered membranes. Surface plasmon resonance was used to quantify the binding of ligands and antibodies to the receptor. The orientation and structural integrity of the surface-reconstit ...
Ligand binding to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor is studied by surface plasmon resonance. Biotinylated bungarotoxin, immobilized on a streptavidin-coated gold film, binds nicotinic acetylcholine receptor both in detergent-solubilized and in lipid ves ...
A review. Cell-based assays are the predominant means of assessing activation of ionotropic receptors and G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), but are limited by their inherent complexity. Here we present an approach to immobilize receptors stably and with ...
The ability of organisms, or individual cells to sense and to react to different external and internal stimuli (light, hormones, odorants, taste) is crucial for their survival. I will report on our recent progress to investigate mol. signal recognition and ...
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)] ...
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 ...
