Vesicular Monogamy?
نویسنده
چکیده
Vesicular neurotransmitter transporters package transmitter into the lumen of synaptic vesicles for quantal release. However, the number of transporters that localize to each vesicle is not known. In this issue of Neuron, a study by Daniels et al. using the Drosophila neuromuscular junction and mutations of the vesicular glutamate transporter suggests that one transporter may suffice to fill each vesicle.

One love: explicit monogamy agreements among heterosexual young adult couples at increased risk of sexually transmitted infections.
HIV prevention strategies among couples include condom use, mutual monogamy, and HIV testing. Research suggests that condom use is more likely with new or casual partners, and tends to decline as relationships become steady over time. Little is known, however, about explicit mutual monogamy agreements and HIV testing within heterosexual couples. This study used data from 434 young heterosexual ...
متن کاملWhy Monogamy? A Review of Potential Ultimate Drivers
The existence of monogamy in animals is perplexing from an evolutionary perspective. If individuals: (1) have the opportunity to mate with more than one individual and (2) doing so provides fitness benefits (e.g., indirect benefits, increased mating success or fecundity), why does monogamy ever occur in animals? To address this question, we must examine how the potential benefits and costs of m...
متن کاملMale infanticide leads to social monogamy in primates.
Although common in birds, social monogamy, or pair-living, is rare among mammals because internal gestation and lactation in mammals makes it advantageous for males to seek additional mating opportunities. A number of hypotheses have been proposed to explain the evolution of social monogamy among mammals: as a male mate-guarding strategy, because of the benefits of biparental care, or as a defe...
متن کاملThe evolution of social monogamy in mammals.
The evolution of social monogamy has intrigued biologists for over a century. Here, we show that the ancestral condition for all mammalian groups is of solitary individuals and that social monogamy is derived almost exclusively from this social system. The evolution of social monogamy does not appear to have been associated with a high risk of male infanticide, and paternal care is a consequenc...
متن کاملGeneralised monogamy relation of convex-roof extended negativity in multi-level systems
In this paper, we investigate the generalised monogamy inequalities of convex-roof extended negativity (CREN) in multi-level systems. The generalised monogamy inequalities provide the upper and lower bounds of bipartite entanglement, which are obtained by using CREN and the CREN of assistance (CRENOA). Furthermore, we show that the CREN of multi-qubit pure states satisfies some monogamy relatio...
