LIKU-LIKU PERTEMUAN BALING / by Nor Ibrahim Sulaiman, author 645421

“…Tunku tidak akan mengiktiraf Parti Komunis Malaya (PKM) dan bertegas supaya parti tersebut dibubarkan serta pengganas komunis menyerah diri, namun pendirian Chin Peng sebaliknya. Kegagalan pertemuan ini membawa kemerdekaan Persekutuan Tanah Melayu, manakala Chin Peng dan gerilanya terus menjadi buruan pasukan keselamatan.…”

Investigating viral glycosylation pathways for drug and vaccine development by Brun, J

“…Chapter 4 focuses on the site-specific glycosylation occupancy, and N- and O-glycan structures attached to virion derived SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoproteins. This glycan signature was compared to a stabilised prefusion trimeric spike, to a monomeric subunit of spike (S1) and to an antigen of a non-stabilised vaccine candidate, revealing subunit shedding of the S1 glycoprotein for the vaccine candidate. …”

Comparative effects of domain-specific human monoclonal antibodies against LGI1 on neuronal excitability by Sell, J, Rahmati, V, Kempfer, M, Irani, SR, Ritzau-Jost, A, Hallermann, S, Geis, C

“…However, only the LRR-specific mAbs increased the number of action potential firing together with enhanced initial instantaneous frequency and promoted spike-frequency adaptation, which were less pronounced after the EPTP mAb. …”

Generation of self-replicating airway organoids from the cave nectar bat Eonycteris spelaea as a model system for studying host-pathogen interactions in the bat airway epithelium by Chan, Louisa L. Y., Gamage, Akshamal M., Tan, Chee Wah, Tan, Kai Sen, Liu, Jing, Tay, Douglas Jie Wen, Foo, Randy Jee Hiang, Rénia, Laurent, Wang, De Yun, Wang, Lin-Fa

“…However, these ALI-AECs did not support SARS-CoV-2 infection, despite E. spelaea ACE2 receptor being capable of mediating SARS-CoV-2 spike pseudovirus entry. This work provides critical model systems for assessing bat species-specific virus susceptibility and the reservoir likelihood for emerging infectious agents.…”

Synaptic CMOS transistor by Chai, Zhen Hong

“…In this work, electrical measurements were conducted on commercial level TiN/HfO2 gated n-channel MOSFET transistor (with an equivalent oxide thickness of 1.7nm) to demonstrate that it can exhibit some critical synaptic characteristics of a biological synapse such as excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic current (EPSC and IPSC), short-term plasticity (STP) and long-term potentiation (LTP), metaplasticity, and spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP). The mechanism behind the output characteristic of MOSFET to exhibit synaptic-like response is the charge trapping and de-trapping at defects in the oxide and oxide/semiconductor interface. …”
