The perception of word stress cues in Papuan Malay: A typological perspective and experimental investigation

open access: yesLaboratory Phonology, 2021
Analyses of word prosody have shown that in some Indonesian languages listeners do not make use of word stress cues. The outcomes have contributed to the conclusion that these languages do not have word stress.

Gating Ritual: Simulations of Gating in Glutamate-Gated Chloride Channel [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2015
Ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) are responsible for converting chemical signals to electrical ones in the nerve system, which is a key element in the fast synaptic signal transmission. The first crystal structures of prokaryotic homologs were solved a few years ago, and today there are many more structures available - including a human one.

Graphene field effect transistors with ferroelectric gating

open access: yes, 2010
Recent experiments on ferroelectric gating have introduced a novel functionality, i.e. nonvolatility, in graphene field effect transistors. A comprehensive understanding in the non-linear, hysteretic ferroelectric gating and an effective way to control ...

Optically gated beating-heart imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The constant motion of the beating heart presents an obstacle to clear optical imaging, especially 3D imaging, in small animals where direct optical imaging would otherwise be possible.

Mechanism of activation at the selectivity filter of the KcsA K+ channel

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Potassium channels are opened by ligands and/or membrane potential. In voltage-gated K+ channels and the prokaryotic KcsA channel, conduction is believed to result from opening of an intracellular constriction that prevents ion entry into the pore.

Experimental challenges in ion channel research: uncovering basic principles of permeation and gating in potassium channels

open access: yesAdvances in Physics: X, 2022
Biological ion channels precisely control the flow of ions across membranes in response to a range of physical and chemical stimuli. With their ability of transporting ions in a highly selective manner and of integrating regulatory cues, they are a ...

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 (

Gating-by-tilt of mechanosensitive membrane channels

open access: yes, 2003
We propose an alternative mechanism for the gating of biological membrane channels in response to membrane tension that involves a change in the slope of the membrane near the channel. Under biological membrane tensions we show that the energy difference

Time-resolved optical gating based on dispersive propagation: a new method to characterize optical pulses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We introduce the technique of time-resolved optical gating (TROG) based on dispersive propagation (DP), a new noninterferometric method for characterizing ultrashort optical pulses in amplitude and phase without the need for a short optical gating pulse.

ELISPOTs Produced by CD8 and CD4 Cells Follow Log Normal Size Distribution Permitting Objective Counting

open access: yesCells, 2015
Each positive well in ELISPOT assays contains spots of variable sizes that can range from tens of micrometers up to a millimeter in diameter. Therefore, when it comes to counting these spots the decision on setting the lower and the upper spot size ...
