CO2-dependent opening of an inwardly rectifying K+ channel [PDF]

, 2011
CO2 chemosensing is a vital function for the maintenance of life that helps to control acid–base balance. Most studies have reported that CO2 is measured via its proxy, pH. Here we report an inwardly rectifying channel, in outside-out excised patches

KCNJ11: Genetic Polymorphisms and Risk of Diabetes Mellitus

Journal of Diabetes Research, 2015
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major worldwide health problem and its prevalence has been rapidly increasing in the last century. It is caused by defects in insulin secretion or insulin action or both, leading to hyperglycemia.

Controlled Engineering of 2D Alkali‐Iron‐Chloride Compounds and Lateral Quantum Heterostructures Within Confined Graphene Nanoreactors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a programmable atomic engineering strategy for 2D materials using Å‐scale nanoreactors formed by bilayer graphene (BLG) intercalation. A new class of alkali‐iron‐chloride compounds, along with lateral heterostructures composed of monolayer alkali halides and iron chlorides, is revealed.

Interaction of fatty acids and phospholipids with multiple binding sites on the potassium channel KcsA

, 2011
The majority of lipids that interact with a transmembrane protein act as a solvent for the protein, forming a shell around it; these lipids are called annular or boundary lipids.

Conformal Metallosaccharide Hybrid Films for Protecting Wood Surfaces From Environmental Damage

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ti‐ribose hybrid films fabricated by molecular layer deposition form a conformal and uniform coating on wood surfaces, which provides water repellence, dimensional stability, and resistance to acidic and alkaline environments, while preserving the natural appearance.

Effects of Sodium Azide, Barium Ion, d-Amphetamine and Procaine on Inward Rectifying Potassium Channel 6.2 Expressed in Xenopus Oocytes

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2008
Background/Purpose: Inward rectifying potassium channel 6.2 (Kir6.2 Δ C26 channel) is closely related to ATP-sensitive potassium channels. Whether sodium azide, barium ion, d-amphetamine or procaine acts directly on the Kir6.2 Δ C26 channel remains ...

Ferroelectric Quantum Dots for Retinomorphic In‐Sensor Computing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work has provided a protocol for fabricating retinomorphic phototransistors by integrating ferroelectric ligands with quantum dots. The resulting device combines ferroelectricity, optical responsiveness, and low‐power operation to enable adaptive signal amplification and high recognition accuracy under low‐light conditions, while supporting ...
