Characterization of fungal carbonyl sulfide hydrolase belonging to clade D β‐carbonic anhydrase
Here, we performed a functional analysis of the fungal enzymes belonging to clade D of the β‐class carbonic anhydrase family (β‐D‐CA). The β‐D‐CAs in the basidiomycete Gloeophyllum trabeum and the ascomycete Trichoderma harzianum showed very low activity in the hydration of CO2 but exhibited high activity in the hydrolysis of carbonyl sulfide (COS ...

A Framework of Defining, Modeling, and Analyzing Cognition Mechanisms [PDF]
Cognition is a core part of and a common topic among philosophy of mind, psychology, neuroscience, AI, and cognitive science. Through a mechanistic lens, I propose a framework of defining, modeling, and analyzing cognition mechanisms. Firstly, appropriate terms are introduced and used in explanations related to the framework and within the definition ...

In modular polyketide synthases, the dehydratase (DH) domain catalyzes the dehydration reaction of the β‐hydroxyacyl unit attached to the cognate acyl carrier protein (ACP) domain. However, it is unclear how DH interacts with ACP during the reaction. In this study, we identified DH–ACP interface residues, providing the first detailed insights into DH ...

On the Notion of Cognition [PDF]
We discuss philosophical issues concerning the notion of cognition basing ourselves in experimental results in cognitive sciences, especially in computer simulations of cognitive systems. There have been debates on the "proper" approach for studying cognition, but we have realized that all approaches can be in theory equivalent.

Neuronal network dysfunction in a model for Kleefstra syndrome mediated by enhanced NMDAR signaling
Kleefstra syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder associated with hapoinsufficiency of the histone methyltransferase EHMT1. Here the authors show using induced pluripotent cells-derived neurons from patients that network dysfunction occurs and is due ...

Embodied cognition and temporally extended agency [PDF]
According to radical versions of embodied cognition, human cognition and agency should be explained without the ascription of representational mental states.

Embodied cognitive ecosophy: the relationship of mind, body, meaning and ecology [PDF]
The concept of embodied cognition has had a major impact in a number of disciplines. The extent of its consequences on general knowledge and epistemology are still being explored.

Conscious cognitive effort in cognitive control
Cognitive effort is thought to be familiar in everyday life, ubiquitous across multiple variations of task and circumstance, and integral to cost/benefit computations that are themselves central to the proper functioning of cognitive control. In particular, cognitive effort is thought to be closely related to the assessment of cognitive control’s costs.
