Cyclic nucleotide‐gated (CNG) and hyperpolarization‐activated cyclic nucleotide‐gated (HCN) channels share substantial sequence and structural similarity but differ markedly in ion conductance and K+ selectivity. Microsecond‐scale atomistic MD simulations qualitatively reproduced the conductance differences observed in single‐channel recordings and ...

Outbreeding depression in the common frog, Rana temporaria
Theory suggests that parental relatedness is a continuous variable with a fitness optimum that we heretoforth will refer to as ‘optimal outbreeding’. In the present paper, we test this proposition from a conservation (translocation) perspective. Amphibians are facing a global decline and many amphibian populations are today small and threatened by ...

Extreme environments can impose strong ecological and evolutionary pressures at a local level. Ectotherms are particularly sensitive to low-temperature environments, which can result in a reduced activity period, slowed physiological processes and ...

The design employs heterogeneous wettability surfaces that construct stable oil‐water interfaces to achieve robust and rapid reversible adhesion. Linear enhancement of adhesion strength is realized through multi‐interface patterning. This adhesive enables rapid on‐demand detachment within five seconds via voltage‐induced electrolysis, offering a level ...

Abnormality in the Urostyle of the Common Frog [PDF]
ATTENTION has recently been drawn to abnormalities in the vertebral column of Rana. (See Bourne, Quarterly Journal of Microscopical Science, January 1884; Howes, Anatomischer Anzeiger, 1 Jahrgang, 1886, Nr. 11; Lloyd Morgan, NATURE, November 1886.) One form of such abnormality is the addition of a supernumerary (tenth) vertebra.

Road Impacts on Abundance, Call Traits, and Body Size of Rainforest Frogs in Northeast Australia
Frogs are potentially sensitive indicators of road impacts, with studies indicating particular susceptibility to road mortality. Calling, i.e., breeding, behavior could also be affected by traffic noise.
