--- _id: '1898' abstract: - lang: eng text: Fast synaptic transmission is important for rapid information processing. To explore the maximal rate of neuronal signaling and to analyze the presynaptic mechanisms, we focused on the input layer of the cerebellar cortex, where exceptionally high action potential (AP) frequencies have been reported invivo. With paired recordings between presynaptic cerebellar mossy fiber boutons and postsynaptic granule cells, we demonstrate reliable neurotransmission upto ~1 kHz. Presynaptic APs are ultrafast, with ~100μs half-duration. Both Kv1 and Kv3 potassium channels mediate the fast repolarization, rapidly inactivating sodium channels ensure metabolic efficiency, and little AP broadening occurs during bursts of up to 1.5 kHz. Presynaptic Cav2.1 (P/Q-type) calcium channels open efficiently during ultrafast APs. Furthermore, a subset of synaptic vesicles is tightly coupled to Ca2+ channels, and vesicles are rapidly recruited to the release site. These data reveal mechanisms of presynaptic AP generation and transmitter release underlying neuronal kHz signaling. author: - first_name: Andreas full_name: Ritzau Jost, Andreas last_name: Ritzau Jost - first_name: Igor full_name: Delvendahl, Igor last_name: Delvendahl - first_name: Annika full_name: Rings, Annika last_name: Rings - first_name: Niklas full_name: Byczkowicz, Niklas last_name: Byczkowicz - first_name: Harumi full_name: Harada, Harumi id: 2E55CDF2-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Harada orcid: 0000-0001-7429-7896 - first_name: Ryuichi full_name: Shigemoto, Ryuichi id: 499F3ABC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Shigemoto orcid: 0000-0001-8761-9444 - first_name: Johannes full_name: Hirrlinger, Johannes last_name: Hirrlinger - first_name: Jens full_name: Eilers, Jens last_name: Eilers - first_name: Stefan full_name: Hallermann, Stefan last_name: Hallermann citation: ama: Ritzau Jost A, Delvendahl I, Rings A, et al.

Many real-world applications deal with very densely sampled point-cloud data, which are augmented with photographs that often reveal lighting variations and inaccuracies in registration. Consequently, the high-quality representation of the captured data, i.e., both point clouds and photographs together, is a challenging and time-consuming task. We propose a two-phase approach, in which the first (preprocessing) phase generates multiple overlapping surface patches and handles the problem of seamless texture generation locally for each patch. The second phase stitches these patches at render-time to produce a high-quality visualization of the data. As a result of the proposed localization of the global texturing problem, our algorithm is more than an order of magnitude faster than equivalent mesh-based texturing techniques. Furthermore, since our preprocessing phase requires only a minor fraction of the whole data set at once, we provide maximum flexibility when dealing with growing data sets. acknowledgement: This research was supported by the Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG) project REPLICATE (no. 835948), the EU FP7 project HARVEST4D (no. 323567). author: - first_name: Murat full_name: Arikan, Murat last_name: Arikan - first_name: Reinhold full_name: Preiner, Reinhold last_name: Preiner - first_name: Claus full_name: Scheiblauer, Claus last_name: Scheiblauer - first_name: Stefan full_name: Jeschke, Stefan id: 44D6411A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Jeschke - first_name: Michael full_name: Wimmer, Michael last_name: Wimmer citation: ama: Arikan M, Preiner R, Scheiblauer C, Jeschke S, Wimmer M.

However, do parasites also drive divergence at MHC loci between host populations, or do the effects of balancing selection maintain similarities among populations? We examined MHC variation in populations of the livebearing fish Poecilia mexicana and characterized their parasite communities. Poecilia mexicana populations in the Cueva del Azufre system are locally adapted to darkness and the presence of toxic hydrogen sulphide, representing highly divergent ecotypes or incipient species. Parasite communities differed significantly across populations, and populations with higher parasite loads had higher levels of diversity at class II MHC genes. However, despite different parasite communities, marked divergence in adaptive traits and in neutral genetic markers, we found MHC alleles to be remarkably similar among host populations. Our findings indicate that balancing selection from parasites maintains immunogenetic diversity of hosts, but this process does not promote MHC divergence in this system. On the contrary, we suggest that balancing selection on immunogenetic loci may outweigh divergent selection causing divergence, thereby hindering host divergence and speciation. Our findings support the hypothesis that balancing selection maintains MHC similarities among lineages during and after speciation (trans-species evolution). acknowledgement: This study was funded by grants from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to MT (IOS-1121832) and IS (DEB-0743406) and from the German Science Foundation (DFG; PL 470/1-2) and ‘LOEWE − Landesoffensive zur Entwicklung wissenschaftlich-ökonomischer Exzellenz’ of Hesse's Ministry of Higher Education, Research, and the Arts, to MP. article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Michael full_name: Tobler, Michael last_name: Tobler - first_name: Martin full_name: Plath, Martin last_name: Plath - first_name: Rüdiger full_name: Riesch, Rüdiger last_name: Riesch - first_name: Ingo full_name: Schlupp, Ingo last_name: Schlupp - first_name: Anna V full_name: Grasse, Anna V id: 406F989C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Grasse - first_name: Gopi full_name: Munimanda, Gopi last_name: Munimanda - first_name: C full_name: Setzer, C last_name: Setzer - first_name: Dustin full_name: Penn, Dustin last_name: Penn - first_name: Yoshan full_name: Moodley, Yoshan last_name: Moodley citation: ama: Tobler M, Plath M, Riesch R, et al.

The exciting technical developments of the 1990s and the 2000s eclipsed that tool; as a result, many investigators today lack experience with growth rate measurements. Recently, investigators in a number of areas have started to use measurements of bacterial growth rates for a variety of purposes. Those measurements have been greatly facilitated by the availability of microwell plate readers that permit the simultaneous measurements on up to 384 different cultures. Only the exponential (logarithmic) portions of the resulting growth curves are useful for determining growth rates, and manual determination of that portion and calculation of growth rates can be tedious for high-throughput purposes. Here, we introduce the program GrowthRates that uses plate reader output files to automatically determine the exponential portion of the curve and to automatically calculate the growth rate, the maximum culture density, and the duration of the growth lag phase. GrowthRates is freely available for Macintosh, Windows, and Linux.We discuss the effects of culture volume, the classical bacterial growth curve, and the differences between determinations in rich media and minimal (mineral salts) media. This protocol covers calibration of the plate reader, growth of culture inocula for both rich and minimal media, and experimental setup. As a guide to reliability, we report typical day-to-day variation in growth rates and variation within experiments with respect to position of wells within the plates. article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Barry full_name: Hall, Barry last_name: Hall - first_name: Hande full_name: Acar, Hande id: 2DDF136A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Acar orcid: 0000-0003-1986-9753 - first_name: Anna full_name: Nandipati, Anna last_name: Nandipati - first_name: Miriam full_name: Barlow, Miriam last_name: Barlow citation: ama: Hall B, Acar H, Nandipati A, Barlow M.

However, mechanisms underlying this auxin response maximum-mediated root stem cell maintenance are not fully understood. Here, we present unexpected evidence that WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX 5 (WOX5) transcription factor modulates expression of auxin biosynthetic genes in the quiescent center (QC) of the root and thus provides a robust mechanism for the maintenance of auxin response maximum in the root tip. This WOX5 action is balanced through the activity of indole-3-acetic acid 17 (IAA17) auxin response repressor. Our combined genetic, cell biology, and computational modeling studies revealed a previously uncharacterized feedback loop linking WOX5-mediated auxin production to IAA17-dependent repression of auxin responses. This WOX5-IAA17 feedback circuit further assures the maintenance of auxin response maximum in the root tip and thereby contributes to the maintenance of distal stem cell (DSC) populations. Our experimental studies and in silico computer simulations both demonstrate that the WOX5-IAA17 feedback circuit is essential for the maintenance of auxin gradient in the root tip and the auxin-mediated root DSC differentiation. acknowledgement: "This work was supported by funding from the projects CZ.1.07/2.3.00/20.0043 and CZ.1.05/1.1.00/02.0068 (to CEITEC, Central European Institute of Technology) and the Odysseus program of the Research Foundation-Flanders to J.F\r\n" author: - first_name: Huiyu full_name: Tian, Huiyu last_name: Tian - first_name: Krzysztof T full_name: Wabnik, Krzysztof T last_name: Wabnik - first_name: Tiantian full_name: Niu, Tiantian last_name: Niu - first_name: Hongjiang full_name: Li, Hongjiang last_name: Li - first_name: Qianqian full_name: Yu, Qianqian last_name: Yu - first_name: Stephan full_name: Pollmann, Stephan last_name: Pollmann - first_name: Steffen full_name: Vanneste, Steffen last_name: Vanneste - first_name: Willy full_name: Govaerts, Willy last_name: Govaerts - first_name: Jakub full_name: Rolčík, Jakub last_name: Rolčík - first_name: Markus full_name: Geisler, Markus last_name: Geisler - first_name: Jirí full_name: Friml, Jirí id: 4159519E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Friml orcid: 0000-0002-8302-7596 - first_name: Zhaojun full_name: Ding, Zhaojun last_name: Ding citation: ama: Tian H, Wabnik KT, Niu T, et al.
