Tunable anti-ambipolar vertical bilayer organic electrochemical transistor enable neuromorphic retinal pathway by Laswick, Zachary, Wu, Xihu, Surendran, Abhijith, Zhou, Zhongliang, Ji, Xudong, Matrone, Giovanni Maria, Leong, Wei Lin, Rivnay, Jonathan

“…Increasing demand for bio-interfaced human-machine interfaces propels the development of organic neuromorphic electronics with small form factors leveraging both ionic and electronic processes. Ion-based organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) showing anti-ambipolarity (OFF-ON-OFF states) reduce the complexity and size of bio-realistic Hodgkin-Huxley(HH) spiking circuits and logic circuits. …”

Structural insights into microbial one-carbon metabolic enzymes: Ni–Fe–S-dependent carbon monoxide dehydrogenases and acetyl-CoA synthases by Biester, Alison

“…In some cases, CODHs are monofunctional, whereas in other cases CODHs form complexes with ACSs and their catalysis is coupled through an internal gas channel between the CODH and ACS active sites. These carbon-fixing enzymes are thought to be among the oldest on earth, dating back to the last universal common ancestor based on strong conservation of these enzymes between bacterial and archaeal domains of life. …”
