Divining the design principles of voltage sensors

The ability of membrane proteins to sense and respond to changes in membrane voltage is critical for a vast array of biological processes, from generating and propagating the nerve impulse to excitation–secretion coupling. Hodgkin and Huxley (1952) were the first to characterize voltage-activated potassium (Kv) and sodium (Nav) currents, but the common architecture of voltage-activated cation c...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

The Situationist Urban Design; Rules and Principles

From a general perspective, urbanism can be assumed as a bipolar world. On one hand, large-scale plans formulated by official organizations are shaping urban environment and the entirety of our cities; on the other hand, social activists and artists, active in the field of cities, are making an effort to give it a human character. According to De Certo (1984), the first approach to city, adopte...

Intracellular pH sensors: design principles and functional significance.

Changes in intracellular pH regulate many cell behaviors, including proliferation, migration, and transformation. However, our understanding of how physiological changes in pH affect protein conformations and macromolecular assemblies is limited. We present design principles, current modeling predictions, and examples of pH sensors or proteins that have activities or ligand-binding affinities t...

Conjugated Polymer Sensors: Design Principles towards Enhanced Versatility

A description of how semiconducting fluorescent polymers function as chemosensors for a variety of chemical vapors is presented. Amplification is achieved by transport of optically induced excitations throughout a polymer film. Careful and thoughtful design of polymer chemical structures is crucial to achieving high sensitivity towards nitroaromatic explosives such as trinitrotoluene (TNT) and ...
