    Biophysical models reveal the relative importance of transporter proteins and impermeant anions in chloride homeostasis

    Kira M Düsterwald, Christopher B Currin ... Joseph V Raimondo
    Mathematical models with experimental validation show that chloride transporters in the cell membrane, and not negatively charged impermeant molecules, generate the driving force used by GABA receptors to silence neurons.

    Uncovering circuit mechanisms of current sinks and sources with biophysical simulations of primary visual cortex

    Atle E Rimehaug, Alexander J Stasik ... Anton Arkhipov
    A biophysically detailed model of mouse primary visual cortex reproduces, in a quantitative manner, experimentally recorded spikes and local field potentials, and suggests mechanisms that form current sinks and sources in vivo.

    A biophysical threshold for biofilm formation

    Jenna A Moore-Ott, Selena Chiu ... Sujit S Datta
    A biophysical model of the process by which bacteria transition from the motile planktonic state to the immobilized biofilm state yields testable predictions in terms of two dimensionless parameters, one describing nutrient availability and the other describing cellular dispersal.

    Basolateral amygdala oscillations enable fear learning in a biophysical model

    Anna Cattani, Don B Arnold ... Nancy Kopell
    Computational modeling suggests that the BLA is capable of producing the recorded LFP rhythms via interactions of interneuron subtypes, and that those rhythms may be necessary for associative learning.

    Systematic analysis of the molecular and biophysical properties of key DNA damage response factors

    Joshua R Heyza, Mariia Mikhova ... Jens C Schmidt
    Live-cell single-molecule imaging of DNA repair factors can be used to analyze their localization to DNA lesions and dissect the hierarchy of their recruitment.

    Inhibitory control of frontal metastability sets the temporal signature of cognition

    Vincent Fontanier, Matthieu Sarazin ... Emmanuel Procyk
    Single unit recordings in monkeys and biophysical modelling demonstrate that local inhibitory-controlled metastable neural states specify the temporal organization of cognitive functions in frontal areas.

    From plasmodesma geometry to effective symplasmic permeability through biophysical modelling

    Eva E Deinum, Bela M Mulder, Yoselin Benitez-Alfonso
    A new biophysical model enables the reconciliation of ultrastructural and tissue level measurements on parameters affecting intercellular communication, and provides novel functional insight into experimental findings.

    Neto auxiliary proteins control both the trafficking and biophysical properties of the kainate receptor GluK1

    Nengyin Sheng, Yun S Shi ... Roger A Nicoll
    Auxiliary subunits Neto1 and Neto2 regulate the GluK1 receptor targeting to excitatory silent synapses through different molecular mechanisms and also modify receptor biophysics through distinct mechanisms.
