Cyclic nucleotide-modulated ion channels are important for signal transduction and pacemaking in eukaryotes. The molecular determinants of ligand gating in these channels are still unknown, mainly because of a lack of direct structural information. Here we ...
Salt sensitive (pea) and salt tolerant (barley) species were used to understand the physiological basis of differential salinity tolerance in crops. Pea plants were much more efficient in restoring otherwise depolarized membrane potential thereby effective ...
Originally demonstrated with electromagnetic waves, supercoupling describes the extraordinary matched transmission, energy squeezing, and anomalous quasistatic tunneling through narrow channels. This behavior is the result of impedance matching achieved wh ...
River confluences are known for their marked 3D patterns and, due to the complexity of local flow features and bed morphology, they require particular consideration. Although there are studies on the flow structure in junctions of two streams, amore detail ...
The scaling of device technologies poses new challenges, not only in circuit design, but also in device modeling, especially because of the short-channel effects and the emergence of novel phenomena like ballistic transport. Nonetheless, it enables the des ...
This volume offers new empirical evidence on Indian skilled migrants living in European countries, which have become important destinations in the global competition for talent, and on returnees in India. Making use of an interdisciplinary and multi-level ...
An important feature of the nervous system is its ability to adapt to new stimuli. This adaptation allows for optimal encoding of the incoming information by dynamically changing the coding strategy based upon the incoming inputs to the neuron. At the leve ...
We characterize the secret message capacity of the triangle network, that consists of a source, a relay and a destination connected through orthogonal erasure channels. A passive eavesdropper, Eve, wiretaps any one of the three channels. The source and the ...
Astrocytes play active roles in brain physiology by dynamic interactions with neurons. Connexin 30, one of the two main astroglial gap-junction subunits, is thought to be involved in behavioral and basic cognitive processes. However, the underlying cellula ...
