Hydrogen sulphide regulates inward-rectifying K+ channels in conjunction with stomatal closure [PDF]
, 2015 Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is the third biological gasotransmitter and, in animals, affects many physiological processes by modulating ion channels. H2S has been reported to protect plants from oxidative stress in diverse physiological responses. H2S closes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Heterogeniety in electrochemical systems heavily influences device performance and durability. The study shows unique evidence of spatio‐operational heterogeneity in fuel cells via operando neutron and X‐ray tomography. Large variations in membrane thickness and hydration depend upon location and operating conditions, with implications on membrane ...

Peptide Sequencing With Single Acid Resolution Using a Sub‐Nanometer Diameter Pore
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.To sequence a single molecule of Aβ1−42–sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), the aggregate is forced through a sub‐nanopore 0.4 nm in diameter spanning a 4.0 nm thick membrane. The figure is a visual molecular dynamics (VMD) snapshot depicting the translocation of Aβ1−42–SDS through the pore; only the peptide, the SDS, the Na+ (yellow/green) and Cl− (cyan ...

SCF E3 Ligase Substrates Switch from CAN-D to Can-ubiquitylate
, 2018 Liu et al. (2018) report a mathematical model predicting how the cellular repertoire of SCF E3 ligases is assembled by “adaptive exchange on demand,” with the limited pool of CUL1 scanning the vast sea of F-box proteins for those with substrates ...

Patch Clamp for MoS2 Layer‐Dependent Hydrogen Evolution Reaction
ChemElectroChemConventional electrochemical experiments can only obtain the average contribution of all active sites in the catalyst. Hence, it is meaningful to distinguish the electrochemical contribution of the local active sites in single‐crystal catalysts.

Excitability of jcBNST neurons is reduced in alcohol-dependent animals during protracted alcohol withdrawal. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Alcohol dependence and withdrawal has been shown to cause neuroadaptive changes at multiple levels of the nervous system. At the neuron level, adaptations of synaptic connections have been extensively studied in a number of brain areas and accumulating ...
