Site-directed spin labeling reveals pentameric ligand-gated ion channel gating motions. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2013 Pentameric ligand-gated ion channels (pLGICs) are neurotransmitter-activated receptors that mediate fast synaptic transmission. In pLGICs, binding of agonist to the extracellular domain triggers a structural rearrangement that leads to the opening of an ...

Single channel study of the spasmodic mutation α1A52S in recombinant rat glycine receptors [PDF]
, 2007 Inherited defects in glycine receptors lead to hyperekplexia, or startle disease. A mutant mouse, spasmodic, that has a startle phenotype, has a point mutation (A52S) in the glycine receptor α1 subunit.

Integration of Low‐Voltage Nanoscale MoS2 Memristors on CMOS Microchips
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This article presents the first monolithic integration of nanoscale MoS2‐based memristors into the back‐end‐of‐line of foundry‐fabricated CMOS microchips in a one‐transistor‐one‐resistor (1T1R) architecture. The MoS2‐based 1T1R cells exhibit forming‐free, nonvolatile resistive switching with ultra‐low operating voltages, low cycle‐to‐cycle variability ...

An Unorthodox Mechanism Underlying Voltage Sensitivity of TRPV1 Ion Channel
Advanced Science, 2020 While the capsaicin receptor transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channel is a polymodal nociceptor for heat, capsaicin, and protons, the channel's responses to each of these stimuli are profoundly regulated by membrane potential, damping or ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Chitosan, a polysaccharide upcycled from biowaste, has long promised sustainable, biocompatible, and antimicrobial films and devices, an appeal reinforced by its recent regulatory recognition, with several chitosan‐based antibacterial dressings gaining clearance through the Food and Drug Administration's 510(k) pathway.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Optoelectronic synaptic devices based on solution‐processed molecular telluride GST‐225 phase‐change inks are demonstrated for three‐factor learning. A global optical signal broadcast through a silicon waveguide induces non‐volatile conductance updates exclusively in locally electrically flagged memristors.

Development of a neurophysiological sensory gating model in the rat to aid in the preclinical identification of possible treatments of sensory flooding in schizophrenia [PDF]
, 2013 Objective: It has been widely hypothesized that a failure to properly filter, or ‘gate’, incoming auditory information occurs in schizophrenic patients. This can be observed in a reduced event-related potential response to the second of a pair of clicks,

Voltage-dependent gating in a "voltage sensor-less" ion channel.
PLoS Biology, 2010 The voltage sensitivity of voltage-gated cation channels is primarily attributed to conformational changes of a four transmembrane segment voltage-sensing domain, conserved across many levels of biological complexity.

Ligand recognition and gating mechanism through three ligand-binding sites of human TRPM2 channel
eLife, 2019 TRPM2 is critically involved in diverse physiological processes including core temperature sensing, apoptosis, and immune response. TRPM2’s activation by Ca2+ and ADP ribose (ADPR), an NAD+-metabolite produced under oxidative stress and neurodegenerative
