Functional activity of peptide ion channels in tethered bilayer lipid membranes: Review
Electrochemical Science Advances, Volume 2, Issue 6, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Ion transport across biomembranes plays a major role in living cells. This fundamental function is normally carried out by molecules with both a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic side (amphiphilic molecules), which aggregate within the membrane forming a hydrophilic pore (the ion channel) permitting the selective translocation of permeant ions ...

Phytotoxic property of the invasive plant Tithonia diversifolia and a phytotoxic substance [PDF]
Acta Biologica Hungarica, 2017 Tithonia diversifolia (Hermsl.) A. Gray is a perennial invasive plant and spreads quickly in the invasive areas. The extracts of T. diversifolia were found to be toxic to several crop plant species such as rice, maize, sorghum, lettuce and cowpea, and several putative allelopathic substances were identified.
