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.
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 ...
The screening of ligands for membrane receptor proteins is central to the discovery of new pharmaceutical drugs. We present a general method to reversibly attach receptor proteins via an affinity tag to a quartz surface and subsequently detect with high se ...
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 ...
A general method for understanding the mechanisms of ligand recognition and activation of G protein-coupled receptors has been developed. A study of ligand-receptor interactions in the prototypic seven-transmembrane neurokinin-2 receptor (NK2) using this f ...
The sequence of events leading to clathrin-coated pit (CCP) nucleation on the cell surface and to the incorporation of receptors into these endocytic structures is still imperfectly understood. In particular, the question remains as to whether receptor tai ...
A highly-sensitive surface fluorescence technique was combined with a powerful method for the oriented reversible immobilization of membrane proteins on oxide surfaces. Affinity and kinetic parameters of the interaction of the receptor and a fluorescent li ...
The uptake of zinc by cerebellar rat cultures upon exposure to ZnCl2 solutions was comparatively investigated using two well known condensed matter physics techniques: synchrotron photoelectron spectromicroscopy and inductively coupled plasma atomic emissi ...
Aerolysin is a bacterial toxin that binds to a receptor on eukaryotic cells and oligomerizes to form stable, SDS-resistant, noncovalent oligomers that insert into the plasma membrane and produce well-defined channels. Little is known about the mechanisms c ...
Many central biol. signal transduction processes such as synaptic transmission occur at the level of cell membranes. It is therefore not surprising that the biol. function of membrane proteins in general and neuroreceptors in particular can be modulated by ...
The possibilities that the recycling of the transferrin receptor is a rate-limiting step in the efflux of endocytosed transferrin, and that the receptor functions as a trans-membrane Fe transporter were investigated in untransfected Ltk- cells and in cells ...
