Downscaling the Analysis of Complex Transmembrane Signaling Cascades to Closed Attoliter Volumes

Horst Arthur Vogel, Rudolf Hovius, Romain Wyss, Joachim Piguet, Luigino Grasso, Ghérici Hassaïne, Michael Werner

Cellular signaling is classically investigated by measuring optical or electrical properties of single or populations of living cells. Here we show that ligand binding to cell surface receptors and subsequent activation of signaling cascades can be monitor ...

Thermal Unfolding of a Mammalian Pentameric Ligand-gated Ion Channel Proceeds at Consecutive, Distinct Steps

Horst Arthur Vogel, Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Cédric Deluz, Ghérici Hassaïne, Menno Berend Tol

Pentameric ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) play an important role in fast synaptic signal transduction. Binding of agonists to the beta-sheet-structured extracellular domain opens an ion channel in the transmembrane alpha-helical region of the LGIC. How ...

A Class of Generalized RS-Codes with Faster Encoding and Decoding Algorithms

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi

In this paper we study a particular class of generalized Reed-Solomon codes and introduce encoding and decoding algorithms for such codes that speed up current hardware implementations by a factor p wherein p can be any divisor of the size of the multiplic ...

A Biochemical and Biophysical Investigation of 5-HT3 Receptor Stability

Menno Berend Tol

The 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 receptor (5-HT3R) is a member of the pentameric ligand-gated ion channel (pLGIC) family, that plays an important role in fast signal transduction and cell-cell communication in synapses: They convert a chemical signal from a neuro ...

Acetylcholine Receptor Organization in Membrane Domains in Muscle Cells: EVIDENCE FOR RAPSYN-INDEPENDENT AND RAPSYN-DEPENDENT MECHANISMS

Horst Arthur Vogel, Rudolf Hovius, Jean-Manuel Segura, Joachim Piguet, Christoph Schreiter

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) in muscle fibers are densely packed in the postsynaptic region at the neuromuscular junction. Rapsyn plays a central role in directing and clustering nAChR during cellular differentiation and neuromuscular junction ...

Exploring G-Protein Coupled Receptor Activation with Multiscale Molecular Simulations

Stefano Vanni

This thesis is devoted to the study of the activation mechanism of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), one of the largest and most diverse protein families in mammalian genomes, by means of different computer-based simulation techniques. Using force field ...
