Generation of Direction Selectivity by Isotropic Intracortical Connections [PDF]
, 1992 To what extent do the mechanisms generating different receptive field properties of neurons depend on each other? We investigated this question theoretically within the context of orientation and direction tuning of simple cells in the mammalian visual ...

Informational selection & natural selection
Physics Procedia, 2010 The Natural Selection Principle plays an important role in Darwinian evolution theory for the world of biology; its success and reasoning power have persuaded many people that there should be a similar principle for social, economic phenomena. After all, the current economy is a much faster evolutionary process. Unlike in the history of evolution where

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Multidrug transporters BpeB and BpeF from the Gram‐negative pathogen Burkholderia pseudomallei have a hydrophilic patch in their substrate‐binding pocket. Drug susceptibility tests and growth curve analyses using an Escherichia coli recombinant expression system revealed that the hydrophilic patches of BpeB and BpeF are involved in the substrate ...

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Ion-imprinted polyaniline-based polymer for selective electrochemical detection of cadmium
Journal of Electrochemical Science and EngineeringAn electrochemical sensor based on ion-imprinted functionalized polyaniline has been fabricated and tested for the electrochemical sensing of cadmium in aqueous solution. The synthesis of the polymer was started by copolymerizing anthranilic acid and 2-
