Flexibility of the N-Terminal mVDAC1 Segment Controls the Channel’s Gating Behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Since the solution of the molecular structures of members of the voltage dependent anion channels (VDACs), the N-terminal α-helix has been the main focus of attention, since its strategic location, in combination with its putative conformational ...

Gated Communities [PDF]

open access: yesGeography Compass, 2008
Abstract This article examines the notion of gated communities and, more generally, privately governed urban neighbourhoods. We do this by reviewing the idea that they are an innovative built‐environment genre that has spread globally from a diverse set of roots and influences. These include the mass growth of private urban government

Cryo-EM structure of the calcium release-activated calcium channel Orai in an open conformation

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The calcium release-activated calcium channel Orai regulates Ca2+ entry into non-excitable cells and is required for proper immune function. While the channel typically opens following Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum, certain pathologic ...

Gating currents indicate complex gating of voltage-gated proton channels [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018
The voltage-gated proton channel (HV1) is a unique molecule that resides at the interface between ion channels and bioenergetic molecules that use proton gradients to store or transduce energy. HV1 plays key roles in the health and disease of diverse tissues and species (1). Important information regarding the physical components of ion-channel gating (

Strict coupling between CFTR's catalytic cycle and gating of its Cl- ion pore revealed by distributions of open channel burst durations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
CFTR, the ABC protein defective in cystic fibrosis, functions as an anion channel. Once phosphorylated by protein kinase A, a CFTR channel is opened and closed by events at its two cytosolic nucleotide binding domains (NBDs).

ACPO Alley-gating Guide 2005/06 [PDF]

open access: yes
A Word about Gates Alleys (snickets, ginnels, backways) are particularly common in British industrial cities and were originally designed to allow access to the rear of properties by coalmen and refuse collectors.

Activity and Ca2+ regulate the mobility of TRPV1 channels in the plasma membrane of sensory neurons

open access: yeseLife, 2015
TRPV1 channels are gated by a variety of thermal, chemical, and mechanical stimuli. We used optical recording of Ca2+ influx through TRPV1 to measure activity and mobility of single TRPV1 molecules in isolated dorsal root ganglion neurons and cell lines.

Analysis of the dynamic responses of SOA wavelength converters using linear frequency resolved gating technique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This letter demonstrates the applicability of the linear frequency resolved optical gating technique for the complete characterization of the fast dynamic response of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) when operating as wavelength converters.

Multi-Talker Speech Promotes Greater Knowledge-Based Spoken Mandarin Word Recognition in First and Second Language Listeners

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2020
Spoken word recognition involves a perceptual tradeoff between the reliance on the incoming acoustic signal and knowledge about likely sound categories and their co-occurrences as words.

Molecular mechanisms of the coupling of gating to voltage sensing in transmembrane proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Voltage gated potassium ion (Kv) channels regulate action potentials of the nervous system by responding to changes in transmembrane voltage, enabling K+ transport across the membrane to restore cells to their resting potential.
