Sleep's role to down-scale glutamate, excitatory, frontal cortical synapses is extended to include an up-scaling of metaplastic LTP potential, in recovery from prolonged waking induced saturation of this LTP potential.
For analyzing time-dependent patch-clamp or patch-clamp fluorometry data of ion channels in terms of Markovian models, the superiority of Bayesian filtering with respect to traditional deterministic approaches is demonstrated enabling more reliable quantification of the parameters.
The ability of Manduca moths to recognize changes in the profile of volatile compounds released by plants being attacked by Manduca caterpillars allows them to lay their eggs on plants that are less likely to be attacked by insects and other predators, and to avoid competing against other caterpillars of the same species for resources.

NET-seq analysis of 41 S. cerevisiae transcription regulatory factors uncovers their differential and opposing effects on Pol II transcription elongation and antisense transcription, revealing that wild-type transcription is balanced by the joint impact of many regulators.
