Membrane properties of structurally modified ceramides : effects on lipid lateral distribution and sphingomyelin-interactions in artificial bilayer membranes
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2014-03-14)
Ceramides comprise a class of sphingolipids that exist only in small amounts
in cellular membranes, but which have been associated with important roles in
cellular signaling processes. The influences that ceramides have ...
Muscarinic toxins : characterization of adrenoceptor binding and applicability of membrane anchoring via glycosylphosphatidylinositol tail
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2014-01-31)
Adrenoceptors (ARs), G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) at the plasma membrane, respond to endogenous catecholamines noradrenaline and adrenaline. These receptors mediate several important physiological functions being ...
Studies on membrane properties of cholesterol and 3-beta modified sterol analogs
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2014-11-28)
Cholesterol (Chol) is an important lipid in cellular membranes functioning both as a membrane fluidity regulator, permeability regulator and co-factor for some membrane proteins, e.g. G-protein coupled receptors. It also ...
