Are the most dynamically flexible regions around the equilibrium structure of an enzyme the same regions involved in the transition state for rate limiting processes involved in the enzymatic reaction? Kern and-coworkers (Wolf-Watzet al., 2...

Post-translational modification, such as phosphorylation or glycosylation, provides a mechanism for increasing the diversity of protein structures in the cell and regulating biological activity. In addition, such modifications may result in...

Gene activation in eukaryotes involves the concerted action of histone tail modifiers, chromatin remodelers, and transcription factors, whose precise coordination is currently unknown. We demonstrate that the experimentally observed interac...

Neuromorphic analog metal-oxide-silicon (MOS) transistor circuits promise compact, low-power, and high-speed emulations of iono-neuronal dynamics orders-of-magnitude faster than digital simulation. However, their inherently limited input vo...

Live imaging has gained a pivotal role in developmental biology since it increasingly allows real-time observation of cell behavior in intact organisms. Microscopes that can capture the dynamics of ever-faster biological events, fluorescent...

In January 2008, Duke University and the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) publicized their successful control of a brain-machine interface for a humanoid robot by a monkey brain across the Pacific Ocean. The activities of a few hun...

The quest to understand the way in which neurons interconnect to form circuits that function as a unit began when Ramon y Cajal concluded that axo-dendritic apposition were too conspicuous to be incidental and proposed that two neurons must...

Over the past century the resolution of far-field optical microscopes, which rely on propagating optical modes, was widely believed to be limited because of diffraction to a value on the order of a half-wavelength lambda2 of the light used....

Recent years have seen the emergence of synthetic biology, which encompasses the engineering of living organisms as well as the implementation of biological behavior in non-living substrates. Many of these engineered systems have harnessed ...
