Cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain: the servant of many masters
Cytoplasmic dynein is the main retrograde motor in all eukaryotic cells. This complex comprises different subunits assembled on a cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain 1 (DYNC1H1) dimer. Cytoplasmic dynein is particularly important for neurons because it carries essential signals and organelles from distal sites to the cell body. In the past decade, several mouse models have helped to dissect the nume...

Dopamine neurons in the midbrain have a central role in generating cycles of biological activity with periods as short as 4 hours and as long as 100 hours.
متن کاملServant of Many Masters: Shifting priorities in Pareto-optimal sequential decision-making
It is often argued that an agent making decisions on behalf of two or more principals who have different utility functions should adopt a {\em Pareto-optimal} policy, i.e., a policy that cannot be improved upon for one agent without making sacrifices for another. A famous theorem of Harsanyi shows that, when the principals have a common prior on the outcome distributions of all policies, a Pare...
متن کاملExocytosis: The Many Masters of the Exocyst
The exocyst is a conserved eight-subunit complex involved in the docking of exocytic vesicles. The exocyst has now been identified as an effector for five small GTPases, including Sec4, Rho1, Rho3, Cdc42 and, most recently, RalA.
متن کاملAn artery has many masters.
D uring the last 25 years, a large number of stimuli have been reported to alter the tone of the coronary arteries. Arterial caliber is now known to be affected by the distending pressure, by factors external to the artery (e.g., neural stimulation and humoral substances in the blood perfusing the arterial wall), by the substances produced by the arterial endothelium, and by metabolically media...
