Nonenzymatic autoligation in direct three-color detection of RNA and DNA point mutations

Enzymatic ligation methods are useful in diagnostic detection of DNA sequences. Here we describe the investigation of nonenzymatic phosphorothioate–iodide DNA autoligation chemistry as a method for ...

Frequency-selective contrast sensitivity modulation driven by fine-tuned exogenous attention at the foveal scale

Exogenous attention is a rapid, involuntary mechanism that automatically reallocates processing resources toward salient stimuli. It enhances visual sensitivity in the vicinity of the salient stimulus ...

Motion detection articles from across Nature Portfolio

The organization of direction selectivity and orientation selectivity in the visual thalamus remains not fully understood. Here, the authors show that orientation representation is broadly mapped, ...
