As an outstanding visual system for insects and crustaceans to cope with the challenges of survival, compound eye has many unique advantages, such as wide field of view, rapid response, infinite depth of field, low aberration and fast motion capture.However, the complex composition of their optical systems also presents significant challenges for m
Subcellular asymmetry directed by the planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling pathway orients numerous morphogenetic events in both invertebrates and vertebrates.Here, we describe a morphogenetic movement in which the intertwined socket and shaft Frozen cells of the Drosophila anterior wing margin mechanosensory bristles undergo PCP-directed apical ro
This work presents a comparison of alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) distribution systems for a residential building equipped with solar photovoltaic (PV) generation and battery storage.Using measured PV and load data from a residential building in Sweden, the study evaluated the annual losses, PV utilization, and energy savings of t
The present article reviews published efforts to study acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase structure and function using computer-based modeling and simulation techniques.Structures and models of both enzymes from various organisms, including rays, mice, and humans, are discussed to highlight key structural similarities in the active site
ABSTRACTEnterovirus Automatic Knife D68 (EV-D68) contributes significantly to pathogen-induced respiratory illnesses and severe neurological disorders like acute flaccid myelitis.We lack EV-D68 preventive measures, and knowledge of its molecular and cellular biology is incomplete.Multiple studies have highlighted the role of membrane compartments a
