15 صفحه اولsome properties of fuzzy hilbert spaces and norm of operators
in this thesis, at first we investigate the bounded inverse theorem on fuzzy normed linear spaces and study the set of all compact operators on these spaces. then we introduce the notions of fuzzy boundedness and investigate a new norm operators and the relationship between continuity and boundedness. and, we show that the space of all fuzzy bounded operators is complete. finally, we define...
15 صفحه اولExploring the Effects on Lipid Bilayer Induced by Noble Gases via Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Noble gases seem to have no significant effect on the anesthetic targets due to their simple, spherical shape. However, xenon has strong narcotic efficacy and can be used clinically, while other noble gases cannot. The mechanism remains unclear. Here, we performed molecular dynamics simulations on phospholipid bilayers with four kinds of noble gases to elucidate the difference of their effects ...
متن کاملModulation of rhodopsin function by properties of the membrane bilayer.
A prevalent model for the function of rhodopsin centers on the metarhodopsin I (MI) to metarhodopsin II (MII) conformational transition as the triggering event for the visual process. Flash photolysis techniques enable one to determine the [MII]/[MI] ratio for rhodopsin in various recombinant membranes, and thus investigate the roles of the phospholipid head groups and the lipid acyl chains sys...
متن کاملThe modulation of protein kinase C activity by membrane lipid bilayer structure.
The hypothesis that protein kinase C (PKC) activity is sensitive to phospholipid head group interactions was tested using lipid bilayers of defined composition with PKC purified from rat brain. The head group interactions were modulated by varying phosphatidylcholine cis-unsaturation, vesicle curvature, and by the addition of phosphatidylethanolamine and cholesterol. With unilamellar vesicles (...
