Molecular basis for a pore block of Tentonin 3 expressed in HEK293 cells by a conopeptide, NMB‐1
Background and Purpose Tentonin 3 (TTN3/TMEM150C) is a mechanosensitive ion channel that plays critical roles in mechanotransduction processes. TTN3 forms a tetramer with a predicted rectangular shape and a central pore. A conotoxin ρ‐TIA and its synthetic analog, noxious mechanosensation blocker 1 (NMB‐1), were initially developed to inhibit slowly ...

Closed‐Form Optimal Investment Under Generalized GARCH Models
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a new class of stochastic volatility models for asset prices, the generalized Heston Nandi GARCH (GHN‐GARCH), with the primary objective of optimal dynamic asset allocation under expected utility theory for constant relative risk aversion investors. We study some of its theoretical properties, and demonstrate that the GHN‐
