Gibco HEPES (4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid) is a zwitterionic organic chemical buffering agent commonly used in cell culture media. The addition of 10–25 mM HEPES provides extra buffering capacity when cell culture requires extended periods of manipulation outside of a CO2 incubator.

Gibco HEPES (N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N-2-ethane sulfonic acid) is a good buffering choice for many cell culture systems because it:

  • Is membrane impermeable
  • Has limited effect on biochemical reactions
  • Is chemically and enzymatically stable
  • Has a very low visible and UV light absorbance

'The amyloid cascade hypothesis, supported by strong evidence from genetics, pathology and studies using animal models, implicates amyloid-beta (Abeta) oligomerization and fibrillogenesis as central causative events in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer''s disease (AD). Today, significant efforts in academia, biotechnology and the pharmaceutical industry are devoted to identifying the mechanisms by ... More

The culture of chondrocytes embedded within agarose hydrogels maintains chondrocytic phenotype over extended periods and allows analysis of the chondrocyte response to mechanical forces. The mechanisms involved in the transduction of a mechanical stimulus to a physiological process are not completely deciphered. We present protocols to prepare and characterize constructs ... More
Molecular rearrangements of the extracellular vestibule in NMDAR channels during gating.

PubMed ID:11779481
Many N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) channel blockers that have therapeutic potential can be trapped in the closed state. Using a combination of the substituted cysteine accessibility method and open channel blockers, we found that the M3 segment forms the core of the extracellular vestibule, including a deep site for trapping blockers. ... More

Polycystin-1 is a novel protein predicted to be a large membrane-spanning glycoprotein with an extracellular N-terminus and an intracellular C-terminus, harboring several structural motifs. To study the subcellular localization, antibodies raised against various domains of polycystin-1 and against specific adhesion complex proteins were used for two-color immunofluorescence staining. In Madine ... More
