Phasing from an envelope.

Solution of the phase problem is central to crystallographic structure determination. Conventional molecular-replacement methods are ineffective in the absence of knowledge of the structure of a homologous protein. A recent method utilizing the low-resolution molecular shape determined from solution X-ray scattering data has been shown to be successful in locating the molecular shape within the...

Dry powder inhalers: an overview.

Dry powder inhalers (DPIs) are a widely accepted inhaled delivery dosage form, particularly in Europe, where they currently are used by a large number of patients for the delivery of medications to treat asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The acceptance of DPIs in the United States after the slow uptake following the introduction of the Serevent Diskus in the late 1990s has been ...

Activation of Shaker Potassium Channels

This second of three papers, in which we functionally characterize activation gating in Shaker potassium channels, focuses on the properties of a mutant channel (called V2), in which the leucine at position 382 (in the Shaker B sequence) is mutated to valine. The general properties of V2's ionic and gating currents are consistent with changes in late gating transitions, in particular, with V2 d...
