Abstract:
:This paper is concerned with the nature of the transmembrane potential induced in an inactive nerve fiber lying in an impressed potential field within a nerve trunk. The impressed potential field is assumed to be produced by the synchronous activity of other fibers within the trunk; an expression for the induced transmembrane potential is obtained utilizing the principles of electromagnetic field theory. The results strongly indicate that membrane capacitance is the main determinant of the induced transmembrane potential wave form.

杂志文章abstract::Enterococcus hirae V1-ATPase is a molecular motor composed of the A3B3 hexamer ring and the central stalk. In association with ATP hydrolysis, three catalytic AB pairs in the A3B3 ring undergo conformational changes, which lead to a 120° rotation of the central stalk. To understand how the conformational changes of th...
