Embodied intelligence for drumming; a reinforcement learning approach to drumming robots
This paper investigates the potential of the intrinsically motivated reinforcement learning (IMRL) approach for robotic drumming. For this purpose, we implemented an IMRL-based algorithm for a drumming robot called ZRob, an underactuated two-DoF robotic ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Direct brain recordings reveal implicit encoding of structure in random auditory streams
The brain excels at processing sensory input, even in rich or chaotic environments. Mounting evidence attributes this to sophisticated internal models of the environment that draw on statistical structures in the unfolding sensory input.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.
