In Silico Characterisation of the Aedes aegypti Gustatory Receptors
Aedes aegypti, also known as the dengue mosquito or the yellow fewer mosquito, is the vector of dengue, chikungunya, Zika, Mayaro and yellow fever viruses. The A. aegypti genome contains an array of gustatory receptor (GR) proteins that are related to the recognition of taste. In this study, we performed in silico molecular characterization of all 72 A.

Stimulation of the gerbil's gustatory receptors by polyols [PDF]
The gustatory responses of the Mongolian gerbil were tested with 12 sugar alcohols. The electrophysiological effectiveness of the linear polyols as gustatory stimulants increased as the length of the carbon chain increased from 2 to 5. Six and 7 carbon acyclic polyols were no more effective than the pentitols. By comparison myoinositol, a cyclic polyol,

A taste of the Drosophila gustatory receptors [PDF]
Insects such as the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, rely on contact chemosensation to detect nutrient-rich foods, to avoid consuming toxic chemicals, and to select mates and hospitable zones to deposit eggs. Flies sense tastants and nonvolatile pheromones through gustatory bristles and pegs distributed on multiple body parts including the proboscis,

Temperature Sensitivity of Fruit Fly Gustatory Receptors [PDF]
Gustatory receptors are a family of transmembrane proteins that have been studied in the context of insect gustatory and olfactory systems. A recent study has found that GR28b, a seven-transmembrane domain protein in the gustatory receptor family in Drosophila melanogaster, may also be involved in temperature sensing.

Temperature Sensitivity of Drosophila Gustatory Receptor Gr28b [PDF]
Gustatory receptors are a family of transmembrane proteins that have been extensively studied in the context of insect taste and odor sensory systems. A recent study has identified a Drosophila gustatory receptor, Gr28b(D), as a thermosensor expressed in peripheral “hot cell” neurons responsible for rapid heat avoidance. Gr28b(D) is the first gustatory

Stimulation of the gerbil's gustatory receptors by disaccharides [PDF]
The gustatory responses from the chorda tympani nerve of the Mongolian gerbil, Meriones unguiculatus, were treated with 13 disaccharides. Sucrose was the most stimulatory sugar. The ability of fructosyl glycosides to stimulate may depend upon the linkage between fructose and the glycoside. Disaccharides possessing 1 leads to 3, 1 leads to 4, or 1 leads

Stimulation of the gerbil's gustatory receptors by saccharin [PDF]
The gustatory responses from the chorda tympani nerve of the Mongolian gerbil, Meriones unguiculatus, were tested with saccharin and some closely related compounds. Only two compounds, saccharin and 6- chlorosaccharin, stimulated the gerbil's taste receptors to any degree and in the same order in which they are sweet to man, saccharin greater than 5 ...

How taste works: cells, receptors and gustatory perception
AbstractThe sensitivity of taste in mammals varies due to quantitative and qualitative differences in the structure of the taste perception organs. Gustatory perception is made possible by the peripheral chemosensory organs, i.e., the taste buds, which are distributed in the epithelium of the taste papillae of the palate, tongue, epiglottis, throat and

A Q‐Learning Algorithm to Solve the Two‐Player Zero‐Sum Game Problem for Nonlinear Systems
A Q‐learning algorithm to solve the two‐player zero‐sum game problem for nonlinear systems. ABSTRACT This paper deals with the two‐player zero‐sum game problem, which is a bounded L2$$ {L}_2 $$‐gain robust control problem. Finding an analytical solution to the complex Hamilton‐Jacobi‐Issacs (HJI) equation is a challenging task.
