G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are integral membrane proteins with seven membrane-spanning helices. Upon binding to a ligand – which can range from small molecules like cyclic AMP to ...
Here, we use a synthetic amphiphile to modulate the membrane mechanical properties of cell-derived vesicles and probe channel activation. Using precise membrane mechanical characterization approaches ...
Another option is the Monte Carlo method of computer simulation to quantify the exposure conditions for numerous radiological imaging techniques. [18,19] The personal computer-based Monte Carlo ...
