Site-directed mutagenesis of amino acids in the cytoplasmic loop 6/7 of Na,K-ATPase.

abstract：:In this paper, we argue that the foundations of chemistry rely as much on the methods of measurement as they do on categories of chemical substance. To some degree, chemists perform the work of knowledge engineering: designing complex systems for the efficient retrieval of information. Indeed, in some cases, methods o...
