Potassium‐Dependent Coupling of Retinal Astrocyte Light Response to Müller Glia
Main Points Astrocytes depolarize to light ON and OFF like Müller glia. The astrocyte light response is due to potassium influx. Retinal macroglial current‐voltage responses exhibit rectification which changes with repeated stimulation. ABSTRACT Astrocytes throughout the central nervous system mediate a variety of functions to support proper tissue ...

Molecular Dynamics Simulations of a Putative Novel Mechanism for UCP1‐Assisted FA Anion Transport
ABSTRACT Background Mitochondrial energy can be stored as ATP or released as heat by uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) during non‐shivering thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue. UCP1, located in the inner mitochondrial membrane, reduces the proton gradient in the presence of long‐chain fatty acids (FA).

Gαq signalling from endosomes: A new conundrum
Abstract G‐protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute the largest family of membrane receptors, and are involved in the transmission of a variety of extracellular stimuli such as hormones, neurotransmitters, light and odorants into intracellular responses.

ERNEST COST action overview on the (patho)physiology of GPCRs and orphan GPCRs in the nervous system
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large family of cell surface receptors that play a critical role in nervous system function by transmitting signals between cells and their environment. They are involved in many, if not all, nervous system processes, and their dysfunction has been linked to various neurological disorders representing important

Abstract G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are one of the major drug targets. In recent years, computational drug design for GPCRs has mainly focused on static structures obtained through X‐ray crystallography, cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) or in silico modelling as a starting point for virtual screening campaigns. However, GPCRs are highly

G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a crucial role in cell function by transducing signals from the extracellular environment to the inside of the cell. They mediate the effects of various stimuli, including hormones, neurotransmitters, ions, photons, food tastants and odorants, and are renowned drug targets.

ABSTRACT Leaf colour mutants play an important role in understanding chlorophyll metabolism and photosynthesis. In this study, we characterised a temperature‐sensitive yellow leaf cotton mutant. Genome re‐sequencing and comparison identified a 10.327 Kb deletion on the D12 chromosome (D12:670726‐681053) in the mutant.
