CNG Method for Authorship Attribution. The Common N-Grams (CNG) classification method for authorship attribution (AATT) was described in [2]. The method is based on extracting the most frequent byte n-grams of size n from the training data. The n-grams are sorted by their normalized frequency, and the first L most-frequent n-grams define an author profile. Given a test document, the test profil...

CNG vessels are used in many vehicles.  Mass production of CNG pressure vessels requires exact understanding of process effective parameters.  In this paper, the numerical analysis has been used to study the manufacturing parameters.  The entire manufacturing processes, including deep drawing, redrawing and ironing, of an aluminum liner sample of CNG pressure vessel (without spinning) have been...

Cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) ion channels are nonselective cation channels, essential for visual and olfactory sensory transduction. Although the channels include voltage-sensor domains (VSDs), their conductance is thought to be independent of the membrane potential, and their gating regulated by cytosolic cyclic nucleotide-binding domains. Mutations in these channels result in severe, degener...

Mammalian rod cyclic nucleotide gated (CNG) channels (i.e., alpha plus beta subunits) are strongly inhibited by phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)) when they are expressed in Xenopus oocytes and studied in giant membrane patches. Cytoplasmic Mg-ATP inhibits CNG currents similarly, and monoclonal antibodies to PIP(2) reverse the effect and hyperactivate currents. When alpha subunits ...

Plateau potentials are prolonged membrane depolarizations that are observed in hippocampal pyramidal neurons when spiking and Ca(2+) entry occur in combination with muscarinic receptor activation. In this study, we used whole-cell voltage clamping to study the current underlying the plateau potential and to determine the cellular signaling pathways contributing to this current. When combined wi...
