DOI: 10.1093/nar/gkz649
Abstract: Abstract DNA mismatch repair (MMR) corrects mismatches, small insertions and deletions in DNA during DNA replication. While scanning for mismatches, dimers of MutS embrace the DNA helix with their lever and clamp domains. Previous studies… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/access.2018.2886598
Abstract: A rotational inertial navigation system (RINS) can enhance the navigation accuracy by modulating the constant inertial device biases with gimbals rotation. To further improve the navigation performance in marine applications, two or more RINSs are… read more here.

DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3985134
Abstract: Beneficial effects of environmental enrichment (EE) on the central nervous system have been demonstrated. Although the effects of EE on spatial learning have been extensively studied, studies on reward-based motor learning are limited. In this… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnbeh.2019.00109
Abstract: Numerosity, or the ability to understand and distinguish between discrete quantities, was first formalized for study in animals by Mechner (1958a). Rats had to press one lever (the counting lever) n times to arm food… read more here.
