New linearization and reweighting for simulations of string sigma-model on the lattice by L. Bianchi, V. Forini, B. Leder, P. Töpfer, E. Vescovi

“…To face these problems, simulations are conducted using the absolute value of a fermionic Pfaffian obtained introducing a small twisted-mass term, acting as an infrared regulator, into the action. The sign of the Pfaffian and the low modes of the quadratic fermionic operator are then taken into account by a reweighting procedure of which we discuss the impact on the measurement of the observables. …”

Mechanistic Framework for Establishment, Maintenance, and Alteration of Cell Polarity in Plants by Pankaj Dhonukshe

“…The emerging mechanism for AGC-3 kinases action suggests that kinases phosphorylate PINs mainly at the plasma membrane after initial symmetric PIN secretion for eventual PIN internalization and PIN sorting into distinct ARF-GEF-regulated polar recycling pathways. Thus phosphorylation status directs PIN translocation to different cell sides. …”
