A supramolecular assembly of cone‐specific G‐protein and cryptochrome 4a on lipid bilayer
Immobilized phospholipid bilayers on a sensor chip surface serve as membrane platform to investigate critical protein–lipid and protein–protein interaction processes by surface plasmon resonance. The putative magnetoreceptor cryptochrome 4a and the myristoylated cone‐specific G‐protein α‐subunit (Gtα) bind with high affinity to immobilized lipid ...

The what, which, when, why and who of Off responses in the auditory system
Abstract figure legend In this article, we will first review ‘What’ different mechanisms are involved in the generation of Off responses at the sub‐cortical and cortical level of the auditory system. Then, we evaluate ‘Which’ stimulus properties elicit Off responses at the different levels of the auditory system.

Anthropogenic Nest Cavities Used by Snow Buntings in an Urban Arctic Landscape
Northern and Arctic ecosystems are experiencing rapid climate change, and simultaneously, human populations in the North are growing and centralizing. The Snow Bunting (Plectrophenax nivalis) is a Holarctic‐breeding songbird and abundant in urban Iqaluit

11β-HSD Types 1 and 2 in the Songbird Brain
Glucocorticoid (GC) hormones act on the brain to regulate diverse functions, from behavior and homeostasis to the activity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis.

ABSTRACT Although much is known about the encoding of experience, how the brain organizes neural circuits capable of learning and memory formation is largely unstudied. Canonical critical periods emerge from a convergence of maturation‐ and experience‐dependent processes.

The post-fledging period remains one of the most understudied portions of the avian lifecycle despite the fact that fledglings require resources distinct from those used during nesting.

In its simplest formulation, reinforcement learning is based on the idea that if an action taken in a particular context is followed by a favorable outcome, then, in the same context, the tendency to produce that action should be strengthened, or ...

ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

It is expected that birds have evolved nest site preferences that, on average, lead to positive fitness outcomes. It is possible, however, that mismatches occur between these preferences and reproductive success when a population experiences sudden ...
