Iron Regulation and the Cell Cycle: identification of an iron-responsive element in the 3′-untranslated region of human cell division cycle 14a mrna by a refined microarray-based screening strategy
(Elsevier, 2006)
Iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) 1 and 2 post-transcriptionally control mammalian iron homeostasis by binding to iron-responsive elements (IREs), conserved RNA stem-loop structures located in the 5′- or ...
Differential effects of muscarinic receptor blockade in prelimbic cortex on acquisition and memory formation of an odor-reward task
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2007)
The present experiments determined the consequences of blocking muscarinic cholinergic receptors of the prelimbic (PL) cortex in the acquisition and retention of an odor-reward associative task. Rats ...
Muscarinic receptor blockade in ventral hippocampus and prelimbic cortex impairs memory for socially transmitted food preference
(Wiley, 2008)
Acetylcholine is involved in learning and memory and, particularly, in olfactory tasks, but reports on its specific role in consolidation processes are somewhat controversial. The present experiment ...
Muscarinic transmission in the basolateral amygdala is necessary for the acquisition of socially transmitted food preferences in rats
(Elsevier, 2009)
We examined the involvement of muscarinic receptors in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) in the social transmission of food preference (STFP) learning by assessing the effects of scopolamine (20 μg/side), ...
Measurement of work in single-molecule pulling experiments
(AIP Publishing, 2009)
A main goal of single-molecule experiments is to evaluate equilibrium free energy differences by applying fluctuation relations to repeated work measurements along irreversible processes. We quantify ...
Dynamic force spectroscopy of DNA hairpins: II. Irreversibility and dissipation
(IOP Publishing, 2009)
We investigate irreversibility and dissipation in single molecules that cooperatively fold/unfold in a two-state manner under the action of mechanical force. We apply path thermodynamics to derive ...
Dynamic force spectroscopy of DNA hairpins: I. Force kinetics and free energy landscapes
(IOP Publishing, 2009)
We investigate the thermodynamics and kinetics of DNA hairpins that fold/unfold under the action of applied mechanical force. We introduce the concept of the molecular free energy landscape and derive ...
Work distributions in the T = 0 random field Ising model
(American Physical Society, 2008)
We perform a numerical study of the three-dimensional random-field Ising model at T= 0. We compare work distributions along metastable trajectories obtained with the single-spin flip dynamics with the ...
2P-111 Stochastic resonance in DNA hairpins(The 46th Annual Meeting of the Biophysical Society of Japan)
(The Biophysical Society of Japan, 2008)
Statistical properties of metastable intermediates in DNA unzipping
(American Physical Society, 2009)
We unzip DNA molecules using optical tweezers and determine the sizes of the cooperatively unzipping and zipping regions separating consecutive metastable intermediates along the unzipping pathway. Sizes ...
