Dynein pulls microtubules without rotating its stalk.

Dynein is a microtubule motor that powers motility of cilia and flagella. There is evidence that the relative sliding of the doublet microtubules is due to a conformational change in the motor domain that moves a microtubule bound to the end of an extension known as the stalk. A predominant model for the movement involves a rotation of the head domain, with its stalk, toward the microtubule plu...

Bringing together existing research

A t the University of South Australia, we’ve been developing and evaluating technologies to support through-walls collaboration, in which users in an intelligent meeting room can work in real time with field operatives to view and manipulate data. The users in the field have first-hand knowledge of the current problem, whereas the indoor users have access to reference materials, a global pictur...

Fusion Studies in Japan

A new strategic energy plan decided by the Japanese Cabinet in 2014 strongly supports the steady promotion of nuclear fusion development activities, including the ITER project and the Broader Approach activities from the long-term viewpoint. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) in Japan formulated the Third Phase Basic Program so as to promote an experimental fusion reactor project. In 2005 AEC has r...

Implicit prosody pulls its weight: Recovery from garden path sentences

Classic reduced relative clause garden path sentences (e.g., The horse raced past the barn fell) are notoriously difficult to comprehend, even after repeated exposure [1, 2]. We present a silent eye tracking experiment showing that increasing the weight of the matrix verb phrase with a particle or an adverbial facilitates recovery from misanalysis, as in The horse raced past the barn fell (down...
