The Interaction of Na+ and K+ in the Pore of CyclicNucleotide-Gated Channels
No full textAbstractThe permeability ratio between K+ and Na+ ions in cyclic nucleotide-gated channels is close to 1, and the single channel conductance has almost the same value in the presence of K+ or Na+. Therefore, K+ and Na+ ions are thought to permeate with identical properties. In the α-subunit from bovine rods there is a loop of three prolines at positions 365 to 367. When proline 365 is mutated to a threonine, a cysteine, or an alanine, mutant channels exhibit a complex interaction between K+ and Na+ ions. Indeed K+, Rb+ and Cs+ ions do not carry any significant macroscopic current through mutant channels P365T, P365C and P365A and block the current carried by Na+ ions. Moreover in mutant P365T the presence of K+ in the intracellular (or extracellular) medium caused the appearance of a large transient inward (or outward) current carried by Na+ when the voltage command was quickly stepped to large negative (or positive) membrane voltages. This transient current is caused by a transient potentiation, i.e., an increase of the open probability. The permeation of organic cations through these mutant channels is almost identical to that through the wild type (w.t.) channel. Also in the w.t. channel a similar but smaller transient current is observed, associated to a slowing down of the channel gating evident when intracellular Na+ is replaced with K+. As a consequence, a rather simple mechanism can explain the complex behavior here described: when a K+ ion is occupying the pore there is a profound blockage of the channel and a potentiation of gating immediately after the K+ ion is driven out. Potentiation occurs because K+ ions slow down the rate constant Koff controlling channel closure. These results indicate that K+ and Na+ ions do not permeate through CNG channels in the same way and that K+ ions influence the channel gating

Norman Vincent Peale portrait
No full textPortrait of author and minister Norman Vincent Peale, ca. 1984. Peale was born on May 31, 1898, in Bowersville, Ohio. He graduated from Ohio Wesleyan University and became one of the most influential ministers of the twentieth century, known for his dynamic and energetic sermons. He preached an optimistic message that many Americans accepted during such trying events as the Great Depression, World War II, the Cold War, and the Civil Rights Movement. His sermons were broadcast on the radio and shown on television all across the United States. Peale also published forty-six books, his most popular being "The Power of Positive Thinking.

Clarence G. Vincent and Hannah K. Vincent, ca.1911-1916
No full textClarence G. Vincent & first wife. Clarence G. Vincent and his wife Hannah K. Vincent served the a cappella Churches of Christ as missionaries in Japan from 1911 to 1916. Primarily located in Tokyo, they joined William and Clara Bishop in their work at the Kamitomizaka Church. Vincent later preached in the Japanese prefecture of Ibaraki, where he claimed to be the first missionary to work in the area. The Vincents departed Japan in June 1916, due to the failing health of Mrs. Vincent.https://digitalcommons.acu.edu/coc_missions_photos/2617/thumbnail.jp
