Tuning NOTCH

چکیده
The emergence of multi-cellular organs and their organization into complex body plans is a major cornerstone concerning origin of life on Earth. This requires that the fundamental unit of life, namely the cell, must communicate, coordinate and organize. Cell communication mediated by signal transduction pathways is essential for the development and functioning of any organism. About 20 different signal transduction pathways are required to generate the high diversity of cell types, patterns and tissues characteristic of metazoans [1]. A major juxtacrine signaling system that allows cells to directly talk to each other to program almost every cell type in the body is characterized by the Notch pathway.

A New Analog-based LO Harmonic Rejection Technique with Tunable Notch Frequency
An effective technique for mixer LO harmonic rejection in a SAW-less wideband receiver front-end is proposed. The proposed technique provides a tunable notch that can be placed at any frequency like mixer LO harmonics, to avoid the aliasing in baseband after mixing. An analog LC notch is used in a cascode transconductor, and it can reject one of the 3rd or 5th harmonics. T...
متن کاملVLČEK, NOTCH FILTERING SUITABLE FOR REAL TIME REMOVAL OF POWER LINE INTERFERENCE Notch Filtering Suitable for Real Time Removal of Power Line Interference
This paper presents a high performance notch filtering for real time suppression of power line interference in a general signal. The disturbing signal is suppressed using an optimal notch FIR filter with tunable notch frequency. The tuning of the filter preserves its selectivity, most importantly the specified attenuation at the notch frequency. One example and two Matlab functions demonstrate ...
متن کاملSpatial frequency, phase, and the contrast of natural images.
We examined contrast sensitivity and suprathreshold apparent contrast with natural images. The spatial-frequency components within single octaves of the images were removed (notch filtered), their phases were randomized, or the polarity of the images was inverted. Of Michelson contrast, root-mean-square (RMS) contrast, and band-limited contrast, RMS contrast was the best index of detectability....
متن کاملStructural and functional dissection of the interplay between lipid and Notch binding by human Notch ligands
Recent data have expanded our understanding of Notch signalling by identifying a C2 domain at the N-terminus of Notch ligands, which has both lipid- and receptor-binding properties. We present novel structures of human ligands Jagged2 and Delta-like4 and human Notch2, together with functional assays, which suggest that ligand-mediated coupling of membrane recognition and Notch binding is likely...
متن کاملDynamics and constancy in cortical spatiotemporal patterns of orientation processing.
How does the high selectivity to stimulus orientation emerge in the visual cortex? Thalamic feedforward-dominated models of orientation selectivity predict constant selectivity during the visual response, whereas intracortical recurrent models predict dynamic improvement in selectivity. We imaged the cat visual cortex with voltage-sensitive dyes to measure orientation-tuning dynamics of a large...
متن کاملA Novel Tunable Dual-Band Bandstop Filter (DBBSF) Using BST Capacitors and Tuning Diode
A novel approach to design Tunable Dual-Band Band-Stop filters will be presented in this paper. These filters have a new configuration with a coplanar microstrip line loaded with SteppedImpedance Resonators (SIRs). These can be tuned by using tuning elements such as a tuning diode and ferroelectric capacitor. The Dual-Band Band-Stop Filter (DBBSF) and Dual-Band Band-Pass Filter (DBBPF) have bec...
