Opening of the cardiac voltage-gated Na+ channel (Nav1.5) is responsible for robust depolarization of the cardiac action potential, while inactivation, which rapidly follows, allows for repolarization. Regulation of both the voltage- and time-dependent kinetics of Nav1.

The gating process of voltage-gated sodium (Na) channels is extraordinary intrinsic and involves numerous factors, such as voltage-sensing domain (VSD), the N-terminus and C-terminus, and the auxiliary subunits. To date, the gating mechanism of Na channel has not been clearly elucidated. Na1.

The transfer of radionuclides discharged into rivers by nuclear facilities are conditioned by their solid/liquid fractionation, commonly represented by an equilibrium approach using the distribution coefficient K. This coefficient, largely used in modeling, assumes an instantaneous and completely reversible reaction. However, such assumptions are rarely verified.

DNA chemical reaction networks can perform complex information processing through careful design of reaction kinetics, which involves the reaction network structure, rate constants, and initial concentrations. The toehold-mediated strand displacement reaction (TMSDR) is a key mechanism in creating DNA circuits, offering a rational design approach by integrating individually designed TMSDRs. Tools such as VisualDSD and NUPACK facilitate the efficient design of these systems by allowing precise tuning of reaction parameters.

DNA polymerases from the hyperthermophilic Archaea have attracted considerable attention as PCR enzymes due to their high thermal stability and proofreading 3' → 5' exonuclease activity. This study is the first to report data concerning the purification and biochemical characteristics of the Tst DNA polymerase from . Both the wild type Tst(wt) DNA polymerase and its chimeric form containing the P36H substitution-which reduces the enzyme's affinity for the U-containing template and dUTP-and the DNA-binding domain Sso7d from were obtained and analyzed.
