Aqueous sorption processes play an important role in, for example, pollutant binding to natural nanoparticles, colloid stability, separation and enrichment of components and remediation processes. In this article, which ...

In bacteria selenocysteyl-tRNAsec (SelC) is synthesized by selenocysteine synthase (SelA). Here we show by fluorescence anisotropy binding assays and electron microscopical symmetry analysis that the SelA-tRNAsec binding ...

The sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) mediates active I(-) transport in the thyroid-the first step in thyroid hormone biosynthesis-with a 2 Na(+): 1 I(-) stoichiometry. The two Na(+) binding sites (Na1 and Na2) and the I(-) ...

Two families of accessory proteins, beta and gamma, modulate BK channel gating and pharmacology. Notably, in the absence of internal Ca2+, the gamma 1 subunit promotes a large shift of the BK conductance-voltage curve to ...

Neuronal 7 nicotinic receptors elicit rapid cation influx in response to acetylcholine (ACh) or its hydrolysis product choline. They contribute to cognition, synaptic plasticity, and neuroprotection, and have been implicated ...
