The kinetics of the hydrogen/deuterium exchange of epidermal growth factor receptor ligands.

abstract：:The proposition is made that the red cell membrane is a two-dimensional, incompressible material and a general stress-strain law is developed for finite deformations. In the linear form, the character of such a material is analogous to a two-dimensional Mooney material (e.g., rubber), indicating that the molecular str...
