Design of Supported Membranes Tethered via Metal-Affinity Ligand-Receptor Pairs

TL;DR: A novel and generic approach to create supported lipid membranes tethered by metal-affinity binding that show adsorption kinetics and values similar to planar supported monolayers and should make a great impact on probing and eventually understanding the dynamic dialog of reconstituted membrane proteins.

Immune networks: multitasking capabilities near saturation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used graph theory and statistical mechanical analysis based on replica methods to show that in the finite-connectivity regime, where each T-lymphocyte interacts with a finite number of Blymphocytes as NT →∞, the T-cells can coordinate effective immune responses to an extensive number of distinct antigen invasions in parallel.

Physics of lumen growth.

TL;DR: A model of the dynamics of formation of intercellular secretory lumens describes a transition between a monotonous and oscillatory regime during luminogenesis as a function of ion and water transport parameters, and quantitatively studies the balance between paracellular leaks and the build-up of osmotic pressure in the lumen.

Secondary transporters for citrate and the Mg(2+)-citrate complex in Bacillus subtilis are homologous proteins.

TL;DR: Uptake experiments in right-side-out membrane vesicles derived from E. coli cells expressing either CitM or CitH showed that both transporters catalyze electrogenic proton/substrate symport and it was concluded that the substrate of CitM is the Mg(2+)-citrate complex and that CitH transports the free citrate anion.

On-off intermittency in time series of spontaneous paroxysmal activity in rats with genetic absence epilepsy

TL;DR: The method to register and analyze the electroencephalogram with the help of continuous wavelet transform is suggested and the on-off intermittency phenomena observed in time series of spontaneous paroxysmal activity in rats with genetic absence epilepsy is considered.
