[[Category:Biology templates]] to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add <noinclude>[[Category:Biology templates]]</noinclude> to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.
Ions often move through the segments of the channel pore in a single file nearly as quickly as the ions move through the free solution. In many ion channels, passage through the pore is governed by a "gate", which may be opened or closed in response to chemical or electrical signals, temperature, or mechanical force.
Co 2+ - cobalt ions are present in the human body in amounts from 1 to 2 mg. [4] Cobalt is observed in the heart, liver, kidney, and spleen, and considerably smaller quantities in the pancreas, brain, and serum. [4] [5] Cobalt is a necessary component of vitamin B 12 and a fundamental coenzyme of cell mitosis. [5]
Homology model of the DHRS7B protein created with Swiss-model and rendered with PyMOL. Homology modeling, also known as comparative modeling of protein, refers to constructing an atomic-resolution model of the "target" protein from its amino acid sequence and an experimental three-dimensional structure of a related homologous protein (the "template").
The prediction is made by "threading" (i.e. placing, aligning) each amino acid in the target sequence to a position in the template structure, and evaluating how well the target fits the template. After the best-fit template is selected, the structural model of the sequence is built based on the alignment with the chosen template.
In cell biology, ion trapping is the build-up of a higher concentration of a chemical across a cell membrane due to the pKa value of the chemical and difference of pH across the cell membrane. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This results in basic chemicals accumulating in acidic bodily fluids such as the cytosol , and acidic chemicals accumulating in basic fluids.
The template effects emphasizes the pre-organization provided by the coordination sphere, although the coordination modifies the electronic properties (acidity, electrophilicity, etc.) of ligands. [1] An early example is the dialkylation of a nickel dithiolate: [2] The corresponding alkylation in the absence of a metal ion would yield polymers.
Ionic species: Atoms or molecules that have gained or lost electrons, resulting in a net electrical charge that can be either positively (cation) or negatively charged (anion). Species with an overall positive charge will be a cationic species. The sodium ion is an example of a cationic species and its formula is Na +.
