Sentence examples for mediating charge from inspiring English sources

It was our intention to test the hypothesis that boronic acids are capable of mediating charge transfer via cell surface saccharide receptors.

Furthermore, the K+ current (Kv1.3) that is activated by lipopolysaccharide is inactivated by depolarization, making it unsuitable for mediating charge compensation on a long time scale at positive voltages.

In summary, our data suggest that for microglia in situ, as opposed to in culture, a previously undescribed non-specific cation current may mediate charge compensation for the electron-extruding activity of NADPH oxidase.

As isolated cultured cells often differ in their properties from cells in situ, we have examined the membrane currents of microglia in hippocampal slices, focusing on those which might mediate charge compensation.

Alternatively, a depolarization-activated K+ conductance has been proposed to mediate charge compensation.

Chlorophyll (Chl) receives solar energy in photosynthetic antenna systems and mediates charge separation and electron transport within reaction centers [ 5].

We cannot rule out the possibility, however, that (as suggested by Thomas et al., 2007) the particular stimulus used to activate microglia may determine which ion channel types are upregulated to mediate charge compensation.

This peak reflected a DNA-bound protein redox process, and it did not result from Endo III interaction with DNA containing an abasic site, which was unable to take part in the DNA-mediated charge transport.

The ability of f-MWCNTs to mediate fast charge transfer and retard charge recombination rate in the composite was also evident from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results.

At the end a theoretical description of the possible origin of the attractive interactions between like-charged surfaces mediated by charged macroions with distinctive internal charge distribution is given.

To employ DNA duplexes as nanowires, however, a major drawback must be overcome; the guanine bases undergo oxidative degradation in a hole transport through DNA duplexes, which is likely caused by the presence of adjoining adenine bases that do not effectively mediate the charge transport through DNA duplexes.
