Fast excitatory synaptic signaling in the mammalian brain is mediated by AMPA-type ionotropic glutamate receptors. In neurons, AMPA receptors co-assemble with auxiliary proteins, such as stargazin, which can markedly alter receptor trafficking and gating. Here, we used luminescence resonance energy transfer measurements to map distances between full-length, functional stargazin expressed HEK293 cells determine ensemble structural changes due stargazin. addition, single-molecule fluorescence...
Mechanistic details about how local physicochemistry of porous interfaces drives protein transport mechanisms are necessary to optimize biomaterial applications. Cross-linked hydrogels made stimuli-responsive polymers have potential for active capture and release through tunable steric chemical transformations. Simultaneous monitoring dynamic changes in both interfacial polymer structure is an experimental challenge. We use single-particle tracking (SPT) fluorescence correlation spectroscopy...
The intracellular C-terminal domain (CTD) of AMPA (α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid) receptor undergoes phosphorylation at specific locations during long-term potentiation. This modification enhances conductance through the ion channel and thus potentially plays a crucial role in modulating trafficking signaling. However, because CTD structure is largely unresolved, it difficult to establish if induces conformational changes that might play enhancing conductance. Herein,...
In this study, a combinatorial approach was developed for fabricating nanostructured composite semiconductor matrices, which exhibited promising photo-response, appreciable photo-current potential and enhanced energy conversion efficiency.
AbstractThe mechanism of accelerated graphitization in hot forged white cast iron has been analysed and a mathematical relationship between graphite content (vol.-%) the process variables determined. The power law variation with annealing time formulated present investigation suggests that first stage is diffusion controlled precipitation process.MST/219
Phosphorylation at the intracellular C-terminal domain (CTD) of α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors induces conformational rigidity. Such alterations to AMPA receptor influence its functional responses, which are involved in multiple synaptic processes and neuronal signaling. The structure CTD still remains unresolved, poses challenges toward providing a mechanism for process phosphorylation deciphering role each step causing resultant behavior. Herein, we...
