This manuscript introduces DendroTweaks, a useful web application and Python library that, compared to existing modeling tools, eases interactive graphical exploration, development, and validation of ...
The predicted membrane topology showed a long extracellular N terminal that presumably constitutes the ligand binding site. Homology with the Ca 2+ receptor CaSR of the parathyroid, with ...
It introduces mathematical modeling techniques alongside cellular electrophysiology. Topics include membrane transport and diffusion, the biophysics of excitable membranes, the gating of voltage and ...
The receptor is one found in the mouths and brains of silk moths. As a ligand-gated receptor, it becomes activated only after its ligand—the molecule that's able to bind to it—attaches. Unexpectedly, ...
The silk moth’s mouth and brain contain the receptor. Because it is a ligand-gated receptor, activation occurs only in response to the ligand the molecule that is able to bind to it attaches.
Several key molecules have been characterized, including the permethrin-sensitive sodium channel gene, an ivermectin sensitive ligand-gated chloride channel, and several ABC transporter genes and ...
It can be used for a wide range of analyses, including kinetic analysis, titers IgG and other proteins, reagent quantification, crude antibody screening, epitope binning/mapping, ligand binding assays ...
