They were first discovered in red blood cells where they function to control cell volume through Ca2+ activated K + efflux [25], [26], [27]. K+ activated channels are three types that differ in biophysical properties. One of the three types is the small conductance channels (SKCa) that...
To answer the question "How is the tertiary structure of a polypeptide related to its primary structure?", we need to understand the relationship between these two levels of protein structure.1. Understanding Primary Structure:
First, develop a balanced diet. As we know, the core of improving immunity is to enhance immune cells and immune molecules. Both two have a common feature. There is a high demand for proteins. And the source of the ...
To rank the similarity measures in relation to their ability to capture gene function we used protein interaction as a proxy for functional relationships between genes. To this end, we first ranked the similarity measures by their ability to distinguish between interacting and non interacting gene pa...
