The competitive inhibitor copyright and the non-competitive inhibitor ibogaine induce different conformational states of the human serotonin transporter.It has been shown from accessibility experiments that copyright mainly induces an outward-facing conformation, while the non-competitive inhibitor ibogaine, and its active metabolite noribogaine, h
ABSTRACT The simultaneous effect of elevated CO2 concentration and drought on trees is still under investigation in the Amazon.We evaluated the effect of CO2 levels (400 and 800 ppm) and water regimes (50% and 100% soil field capacity) on photosynthetic traits, chlorophyll fluorescence, and total biomass accumulation in Ceiba pentandra.In well-wate
Slot waveguides are becoming more and more attractive optical components, especially for chemical and bio-chemical sensing.In this paper an accurate analysis of slot waveguide fabrication tolerances is carried out, in order to find optimum design criteria for either homogeneous or absorption sensing mechanisms, in cases of low and high aspect ratio
Fibrous membranes offer broad opportunities to deploy immobilized enzymes in new reactor and application designs, including multiphase continuous flow-through reactions.Enzyme immobilization is a technology strategy that simplifies the separation of otherwise soluble catalytic proteins from liquid reaction media and imparts stabilization and perfor
