Comparison of the LINC, LINC-8, and PDP-12 computers

The LINC complex and human disease.

The LINC (linker of nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton) complex is a proposed mechanical link tethering the nucleo- and cyto-skeleton via the NE (nuclear envelope). The LINC components emerin, lamin A/C, SUN1, SUN2, nesprin-1 and nesprin-2 interact with each other at the NE and also with other binding partners including actin filaments and B-type lamins. Besides the mechanostructural functions, th...

The Molecular Basis of LINC Complex Formation

The nucleus is the hallmark of the eukaryotic cell. It contains most of the genetic material and it separates the processes of replication and transcription from that of translation. Communication between the nucleus and the cytoplasm occurs mostly through openings in the nuclear envelope composed of nuclear pore complexes. These massive assemblies allow for regulated transport of macromolecule...

Monodromy of the LiNC/NCLi molecule

Using the potential surface of Essers, Tennyson, and Wormer in [Chem. Phys. Lett. 89 (1982) 223], we show that the system of bending vibrational states of the isomerizing molecule LiNC/NCLi has monodromy. On the basis of a deformed spherical pendulum model, we explain dynamical and geometric reasons of this phenomenon and of its absence in the similar system HCN/CNH. 2003 Elsevier B.V. All righ...

Gain and phase error-free LINC transmitter

This paper presents a new correction technique for linear amplification with nonlinear components transmitters. During the transmit mode, the algorithm modulates and filters the baseband signal as a normal signal component separator, while during the correction mode, by use of a downconversion mixer, the gain and phase imbalance are measured and compensated by introducing a correction. This sys...
