Na+K+ ATPase activity in the rat hippocampus: a study in the pilocarpine model of epilepsy.

abstract：:Fluorescence measurements and singlet singlet energy transfer experiments on endothelin-1 provide information on the conformation of this peptide in dilute aqueous solution. The tyrosine fluorescence quantum yield in the absence of transfer (in [Phe(21)]endothelin-1) is relatively large (?(tyr) = 0.39), indicating the...
