  text: Mechanical unfolding of single bacteriorhodopsins from a membrane bilayer
    is studied using molecular dynamics simulations. The initial conformation of the
    lipid membrane is determined through all-atom simulations and then its coarse-grained
    representation is used in the studies of stretching. A Go-like model with a realistic
    contact map and with Lennard–Jones contact interactions is applied to model the
    protein–membrane system. The model qualitatively reproduces the experimentally
    observed differences between force-extension patterns obtained on bacteriorhodopsin
    at different temperatures and predicts a lack of symmetry in the choice of the
    terminus to pull by. It also illustrates the decisive role of the interactions
    of the protein with the membrane in determining the force pattern and thus the
    stability of transmembrane proteins.

  text: Measuring the visco-elastic properties of biological macromolecules constitutes
    an important step towards the understanding of dynamic biological processes, such
    as cell adhesion, muscle function, or plant cell wall stability. Force spectroscopy
    techniques based on the atomic force microscope (AFM) are increasingly used to
    study the complex visco-elastic response of (bio-)molecules on a single-molecule
    level. These experiments either require that the AFM cantilever is actively oscillated
    or that the molecule is clamped at constant force to monitor thermal cantilever
    motion. Here we demonstrate that the visco-elasticity of single bio-molecules
    can readily be extracted from the Brownian cantilever motion during conventional
    force-extension measurements. It is shown that the characteristics of the cantilever
    determine the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio and time resolution. Using a small cantilever,
    the visco-elastic properties of single dextran molecules were resolved with a
    time resolution of 8.3 ms. The presented approach can be directly applied to probe
    the dynamic response of complex bio-molecular systems or proteins in force-extension
    experiments.

  text: We applied a single-cell assay to characterize how transcription dynamics
    affects protein expression levels of a tetracycline-inducible gene expression
    system. Transcriptional activity of the tetracycline promoter in response to a
    steady level of inducer is steady in ΔacrAB efflux mutant but pulsating in wildtype
    Escherichia coli cells. We found that the expression level of the green fluorescent
    protein is several folds higher in ΔacrAB efflux mutant than in wildtype cells.

  text: A primitive example of adaptation in gene expression is the balance between
    the rate of synthesis and degradation of cellular RNA, which allows rapid responses
    to environmental signals. Here, we investigate how multidrug efflux pump systems
    mediate the dynamics of a simple drug-inducible system in response to a steady
    level of inducer. Using fluorescence correlation spectroscopy, we measured in
    real time within a single bacterium the transcription activity at the RNA level
    of the acrAB-TolC multidrug efflux pump system. When cells are exposed to constant
    level of anhydrotetracycline inducer and are adsorbed onto a poly-L-lysine-coated
    surface, we found that the acrAB-TolC promoter is steadily active. We also monitored
    the activity of the tet promoter to characterize the effect of this efflux system
    on the dynamics of drug-inducible transcription. We found that the transcriptional
    response of the tet promoter to a steady level of aTc rises and then falls back
    to its preinduction level. The rate of RNA degradation was constant throughout
    the transcriptional pulse, indicating that the modulation of intracellular inducer
    concentration alone can produce this pulsating response. Single-cell experiments
    together with numerical simulations suggest that such pulsating response in drug-inducible
    genetic systems is a property emerging from the dependence of drug-inducible transcription
    on multidrug efflux systems.

  text: Control of physical simulation has become a popular topic in the field of
    computer graphics. Keyframe control has been applied to simulations of rigid bodies,
    smoke, liquid, flocks, and finite element-based elastic bodies. In this paper,
    we create a framework for controlling systems of interacting particles -- paying
    special attention to simulations of cloth and flocking behavior. We introduce
    a novel integrator-swapping approximation in order to apply the adjoint method
    to linearized implicit schemes appropriate for cloth simulation. This allows the
    control of cloth while avoiding computationally infeasible derivative calculations.
    Meanwhile, flocking control using the adjoint method is significantly more efficient
    than currently-used methods for constraining group behaviors, allowing the controlled
    simulation of greater numbers of agents in fewer optimization iterations.

  text: Models of RNA secondary structure folding are widely used to study evolution
    in theory and simulation. However, systematic studies of the parameters involved
    are rare. In this paper, we study by simulation how RNA evolution is influenced
    by three different factors, namely the mutation rate, scaling of the fitness function,
    and distance measure. We found that for low mutation rates the qualitative evolutionary
    behavior is robust with respect to the scaling of the fitness function. For efficient
    mutation rates, which are close to the error threshold, scaling and distance measure
    have a strong influence on the evolutionary behavior. A global distance measure
    that takes sequence information additively into account lowers the error threshold.
    When using a local sequence-structure alignment for the distance, we observed
    a smoother evolution of the fitness over time. Finally, in addition to the well
    known error threshold, we identify another threshold of the mutation rate, called
    divergence threshold, where the qualitative transient behavior changes from a
    localized to an exploratory search.

  text: Networks of GABAergic neurons are key elements in the generation of gamma
    oscillations in the brain. Computational studies suggested that the emergence
    of coherent oscillations requires hyperpolarizing inhibition. Here, we show that
    GABA(A) receptor-mediated inhibition in mature interneurons of the hippocampal
    dentate gyrus is shunting rather than hyperpolarizing. Unexpectedly, when shunting
    inhibition is incorporated into a structured interneuron network model with fast
    and strong synapses, coherent oscillations emerge. In comparison to hyperpolarizing
    inhibition, networks with shunting inhibition show several advantages. First,
    oscillations are generated with smaller tonic excitatory drive. Second, network
    frequencies are tuned to the gamma band. Finally, robustness against heterogeneity
    in the excitatory drive is markedly improved. In single interneurons, shunting
    inhibition shortens the interspike interval for low levels of drive but prolongs
    it for high levels, leading to homogenization of neuronal firing rates. Thus,
    shunting inhibition may confer increased robustness to gamma oscillations in the
    brain.

  text: Hyperpolarization-activated channels (Ih or HCN channels) are widely expressed
    in principal neurons in the central nervous system. However, Ih in inhibitory
    GABAergic interneurons is less well characterized. We examined the functional
    properties of Ih in fast-spiking basket cells (BCs) of the dentate gyrus, using
    hippocampal slices from 17- to 21-day-old rats. Bath application of the Ih channel
    blocker ZD 7288 at a concentration of 30 microm induced a hyperpolarization of
    5.7 +/- 1.5 mV, an increase in input resistance and a correlated increase in apparent
    membrane time constant. ZD 7288 blocked a hyperpolarization-activated current
    in a concentration-dependent manner (IC50, 1.4 microm). The effects of ZD 7288
    were mimicked by external Cs+. The reversal potential of Ih was -27.4 mV, corresponding
    to a Na+ to K+ permeability ratio (PNa/PK) of 0.36. The midpoint potential of
    the activation curve of Ih was -83.9 mV, and the activation time constant at -120
    mV was 190 ms. Single-cell expression analysis using reverse transcription followed
    by quantitative polymerase chain reaction revealed that BCs coexpress HCN1 and
    HCN2 subunit mRNA, suggesting the formation of heteromeric HCN1/2 channels. ZD
    7288 increased the current threshold for evoking antidromic action potentials
    by extracellular stimulation, consistent with the expression of Ih in BC axons.
    Finally, ZD 7288 decreased the frequency of miniature inhibitory postsynaptic
    currents (mIPSCs) in hippocampal granule cells, the main target cells of BCs,
    to 70 +/- 4% of the control value. In contrast, the amplitude of mIPSCs was unchanged,
    consistent with the presence of Ih in inhibitory terminals. In conclusion, our
    results suggest that Ih channels are expressed in the somatodendritic region,
    axon and presynaptic elements of fast-spiking BCs in the hippocampus.

  text: The axon terminals (mossy fibers) of hippocampal dentate granule cells form
    characteristic synaptic connections with large spines or excrescences of both
    hilar mossy cells and CA3 pyramidal neurons. Interneurons of the hilar region
    and area CA3 are also prominent targets of mossy fibers. The tracing of biocytin-filled
    mossy fibers and immunolabeling of target cells with interneuron markers has revealed
    that the majority of mossy fiber synapses project to gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA)-ergic
    inhibitory interneurons rather than to excitatory principal cells, although the
    functional implications of these quantitative differences are unclear. Following
    a brief description of the &quot;classical&quot; mossy fiber synapse on excrescences
    of CA3 pyramidal cells, the present review focuses on the contacts formed between
    granule cells and GABAergic interneurons, both normally and after synaptic reorganization.
    In response to deafferentation of mossy cell target cells, which include both
    granule cells and interneurons, mossy fibers &quot;sprout&quot; new axon collaterals
    that form a band of supragranular mossy fibers in the inner molecular layer of
    the dentate gyrus. Although most newly formed recurrent mossy fibers establish
    synapses with granule cells, there is an apparently convergent input of new mossy
    fibers onto GABA-immunoreactive interneuron dendrites that traverse the inner
    molecular layer. These mossy fiber-interneuron synapses in the dentate gyrus are
    observed in chronically epileptic rats and may be the structural correlate of
    the granule cell hyperinhibition observed in these animals in vivo. Together,
    the findings reviewed here establish mossy fiber synapses as an important component
    of inhibitory circuits in the hippocampus.

  text: It is widely accepted that the hippocampus plays a major role in learning
    and memory. The mossy fiber synapse between granule cells in the dentate gyrus
    and pyramidal neurons in the CA3 region is a key component of the hippocampal
    trisynaptic circuit. Recent work, partially based on direct presynaptic patch-clamp
    recordings from hippocampal mossy fiber boutons, sheds light on the mechanisms
    of synaptic transmission and plasticity at mossy fiber synapses. A high Na(+)
    channel density in mossy fiber boutons leads to a large amplitude of the presynaptic
    action potential. Together with the fast gating of presynaptic Ca(2+) channels,
    this generates a large and brief presynaptic Ca(2+) influx, which can trigger
    transmitter release with high efficiency and temporal precision. The large number
    of release sites, the large size of the releasable pool of vesicles, and the huge
    extent of presynaptic plasticity confer unique strength to this synapse, suggesting
    a large impact onto the CA3 pyramidal cell network under specific behavioral conditions.
    The characteristic properties of the hippocampal mossy fiber synapse may be important
    for pattern separation and information storage in the dentate gyrus-CA3 cell network.

  text: Rigorous analysis of synaptic transmission in the central nervous system requires
    access to presynaptic terminals. However, cortical terminals have been largely
    inaccessible to presynaptic patch-clamp recording, due to their small size. Using
    improved patch-clamp techniques in brain slices, we recorded from mossy fiber
    terminals in the CA3 region of the hippocampus, which have a diameter of 2-5 microm.
    The major steps of improvement were the enhanced visibility provided by high-numerical
    aperture objectives and infrared illumination, the development of vibratomes with
    minimal vertical blade vibrations and the use of sucrose-based solutions for storage
    and cutting. Based on these improvements, we describe a protocol that allows us
    to routinely record from hippocampal mossy fiber boutons. Presynaptic recordings
    can be obtained in slices from both rats and mice. Presynaptic recordings can
    be also obtained in slices from transgenic mice in which terminals are labeled
    with enhanced green fluorescent protein.

  text: A stochastic graph game is played by two players on a game graph with probabilistic
    transitions. We consider stochastic graph games with omega-regular winning conditions
    specified as Rabin or Streett objectives. These games are NP-complete and coNP-complete,
    respectively. The value of the game for a player at a state s given an objective
    Phi is the maximal probability with which the player can guarantee the satisfaction
    of Phi from s. We present a strategy-improvement algorithm to compute values in
    stochastic Rabin games, where an improvement step involves solving Markov decision
    processes (MDPs) and nonstochastic Rabin games. The algorithm also computes values
    for stochastic Streett games but does not directly yield an optimal strategy for
    Streett objectives. We then show how to obtain an optimal strategy for Streett
    objectives by solving certain nonstochastic Streett games.

  text: We study observation-based strategies for two-player turn-based games on graphs
    with omega-regular objectives. An observation-based strategy relies on imperfect
    information about the history of a play, namely, on the past sequence of observations.
    Such games occur in the synthesis of a controller that does not see the private
    state of the plant. Our main results are twofold. First, we give a fixed-point
    algorithm for computing the set of states from which a player can win with a deterministic
    observation-based strategy for any omega-regular objective. The fixed point is
    computed in the lattice of antichains of state sets. This algorithm has the advantages
    of being directed by the objective and of avoiding an explicit subset construction
    on the game graph. Second, we give an algorithm for computing the set of states
    from which a player can win with probability 1 with a randomized observation-based
    strategy for a Buchi objective. This set is of interest because in the absence
    of perfect information, randomized strategies are more powerful than deterministic
    ones. We show that our algorithms are optimal by proving matching lower bounds.

  text: We consider two-player infinite games played on graphs. The games are concurrent,
    in that at each state the players choose their moves simultaneously and independently,
    and stochastic, in that the moves determine a probability distribution for the
    successor state. The value of a game is the maximal probability with which a player
    can guarantee the satisfaction of her objective. We show that the values of concurrent
    games with w-regular objectives expressed as parity conditions can be decided
    in NP boolean AND coNP. This result substantially improves the best known previous
    bound of 3EXPTIME. It also shows that the full class of concurrent parity games
    is no harder than the special case of turn-based stochastic reachability games,
    for which NP boolean AND coNP is the best known bound. While the previous, more
    restricted NP boolean AND coNP results for graph games relied on the existence
    of particularly simple (pure memoryless) optimal strategies, in concurrent games
    with parity objectives optimal strategies may not exist, and epsilon-optimal strategies
    (which achieve the value of the game within a parameter epsilon &gt; 0) require
    in general both randomization and infinite memory. Hence our proof must rely on
    a more detailed analysis of strategies and, in addition to the main result, yields
    two results that are interesting on their own. First, we show that there exist
    epsilon-optimal strategies that in the limit coincide with memoryless strategies;
    this parallels the celebrated result of Mertens-Neyman for concurrent games with
    limit-average objectives. Second, we complete the characterization of the memory
    requirements for epsilon-optimal strategies for concurrent games with parity conditions,
    by showing that memoryless strategies suffice for epsilon-optimality for coBachi
    conditions.

  text: 'We study infinite stochastic games played by two-players over a finite state
    space, with objectives specified by sets of infinite traces. The games are concurrent
    (players make moves simultaneously and independently), stochastic (the next state
    is determined by a probability distribution that depends on the current state
    and chosen moves of the players) and infinite (proceeds for infinite number of
    rounds). The analysis of concurrent stochastic games can be classified into: quantitative
    analysis, analyzing the optimum value of the game; and qualitative analysis, analyzing
    the set of states with optimum value 1. We consider concurrent games with tail
    objectives, i.e., objectives that are independent of the finite-prefix of traces,
    and show that the class of tail objectives are strictly richer than the omega-regular
    objectives. We develop new proof techniques to extend several properties of concurrent
    games with omega-regular objectives to concurrent games with tail objectives.
    We prove the positive limit-one property for tail objectives, that states for
    all concurrent games if the optimum value for a player is positive for a tail
    objective Phi at some state, then there is a state where the optimum value is
    1 for Phi, for the player. We also show that the optimum values of zero-sum (strictly
    conflicting objectives) games with tail objectives can be related to equilibrium
    values of nonzero-sum (not strictly conflicting objectives) games with simpler
    reachability objectives. A consequence of our analysis presents a polynomial time
    reduction of the quantitative analysis of tail objectives to the qualitative analysis
    for the sub-class of one-player stochastic games (Markov decision processes).'

  text: 'It is commonly believed that both the average length and the frequency of
    microsatellites correlate with genome size. We have estimated the frequency and
    the average length for 69 perfect dinucleotide microsatellites in an insect with
    an exceptionally large genome: Chorthippus biguttulus (Orthoptera, Acrididae).
    Dinucleotide microsatellites are not more frequent in C. biguttulus, but repeat
    arrays are 1.4 to 2 times longer than in other insect species. The average repeat
    number in C. biguttulus lies in the range of higher vertebrates. Natural populations
    are highly variable. At least 30 alleles per locus were found and the expected
    heterozygosity is above 0.95 at all three loci studied. In contrast, the observed
    heterozygosity is much lower (≤0.51), which could be caused by long null alleles.'

  text: Invasive species often dramatically change native species communities by directly
    and indirectly out-competing native species. We studied the direct interference
    abilities of the invasive garden ant, Lasius neglectus VAN LOON, BOOMSMA &amp;
    ANDRÁSFALVY, 1990, by performing one-to-one aggression tests of L. neglectus workers
    towards three native Lasius ant species that occur at the edge of a L. neglectus
    supercolony in Seva, Spain. Our results show that L. neglectus is highly aggressive
    against all three native Lasius species tested (L. grandis FOREL, 1909, L. emarginatus
    (OLIVIER, 1792), and L. cinereus SEIFERT, 1992), expressed as a higher attack
    rate of L. neglectus and behavioural dominance throughout the aggressive encounters.
    Attacks of L. neglectus were performed fastest and most frequent against L. grandis,
    and also the highest antennation frequencies were observed in encounters between
    these two species. This could be due to the largest difference in body size, or
    due to a greater overlap in ecological niche between L. neglectus and L. grandis
    compared to the other two native species. There was only weak support for L. neglectus
    workers from the periphery of the supercolony to be more aggressive relative to
    workers from the centre, even though the former encounter native ant species on
    a daily basis at the edge of the supercolony.

  text: Many invasive ant species, such as the Argentine ant or the red imported fire
    ant, have huge colonies with thousands of mass-foraging workers, which quickly
    monopolise resources and therefore represent a considerable threat to the native
    ant fauna. Cardiocondyla obscurior and several other species of this myrmicine
    genus have similarly been transferred throughout the tropics by human activities.
    However, because their colonies are tiny and workers forage solitarily, Cardiocondyla
    are often not recognized as successful invaders. Here, we document that the life
    history of Cardiocondyla closely resembles that of the more conspicuous tramp
    species, with polygyny, intranidal mating, budding, worker sterility, low genetic
    variability, and possibly also unicoloniality. Given that introduced Cardiocondyla
    may locally reach a very high population density, the effects of these stealthy
    invaders on the native arthropod fauna should receive more attention.

  text: We compare the performances of established means of character selection for
    discriminant analysis in species distinction with a combination procedure for
    finding the optimal character combination (minimum classification error, minimum
    number of required characters), using morphometric data sets from the ant genera
    Cardiocondyla, Lasius and Tetramorium. The established methods are empirical character
    selection as well as forward selection, backward elimination and stepwise selection
    of discriminant analysis. The combination procedure is clearly superior to the
    established methods of character selection, and is widely applicable.
