The pattern of binding to these residues differs in basal and desensitized conformations, further supporting the notion that these sites modulate the allosteric transitions of the nAChR.

The study, led by the BioRobotics Laboratory in EPFL's School of Engineering, offers new insights into why and how such gait transitions ... first author on a paper published in Nature Communications.

Quantum entanglement—a phenomenon where particles are mysteriously linked no matter how far apart they are—presents a long-standing challenge in the physical world, particularly in understanding its ...
