Example Sentences:

(7) The rate for unbinding during depolarization was independent of pHo.
(8) We suggest that these conformational changes arise from the unbinding to DNA of certain basic tails of histone(s), and that a competition for DNA binding locations exists upon the reassociation.
(9) These findings suggest than AN-132 has use dependent inhibitory action on the fast sodium channel by binding to the channel mainly during its activated state and that the unbinding rate of the drug during diastole is very slow.
(10) Because in most cases these fit a single exponential with a mean open duration like that of modified channels, we conclude that voltage-dependent toxin unbinding produced a mixed population of unmodified and modified openings.
(11) The extent of the contribution of the process of agonist binding and unbinding to adenylate cyclase activation has not been demonstrated or quantified.
(12) It is interesting that encainide and flecainide unbind slowly (15-20 seconds), whereas lidocaine and moricizine unbind rapidly (0.2-1.3 seconds).
(13) Therefore, sodium channel states regulate the binding and unbinding behaviour of antiarrhythmic drugs.
(14) Such [Ca2+]i-transients in muscle are actually subcellular spatio-temporal events that are determined dynamically by i) diffusional fluxes of Ca2+, ii) by the binding or unbinding of Ca2+ to ligands such as troponin c and calmodulin, and iii) by the various cellular processes, such as release of Ca2+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum, that produce fluxes of Ca2+ across the membranes bounding organelles or the cell.
(15) According to the model, RAC109-I and RAC109-II have significantly different unbinding rate constants for channels when they exist predominantly in rested, activated, or inactivated states, as well as significantly different binding rate constants when channels are activated.
(16) We conclude that binding and unbinding of one molecule of ATP determine the gating of ATP-sensitive K+ channel.
(17) The dissociation rate constant of DHO unbinding remained unchanged (approximately 0.06 s-1).
(18) Estimates of binding and unbinding rate constants for the sodium channel during the action potential plateau and after repolarization were of the same order as previous results obtained using microelectrode methods in vitro.
(19) Increasing the concentration of drug increased the rate of binding but had little or no effect on unbinding, as expected for a simple bimolecular reaction.
(20) Binding and unbinding of MK-801 seems to be possible only if the N-Me-D-Asp-operated channel is in the transmitter-activated state: MK-801 was effective only when applied simultaneously with N-Me-D-Asp, and recovery from MK-801 blockade was speeded by continuous exposure to N-Me-D-Asp [time constant (tau) approximately equal to 90 min at -70 to -80 mV].
