We argue that the mutual interactions realized by lateral interactions and recurrent feedback between the cortical areas considered stabilize the representation of fragments of outlines and group them together.
However, we can expect that the position of pzc is located at more positive potential than the upd onset potential; the electrostatic interaction toward Zn2+ is an attractive force to the electrode, which is discussed to assist in nucleation-growth mechanism for two-dimensional upd phase formation by lateral interaction.
It is proposed that the formation of coronavirus envelope is dominated by lateral interaction between M molecules that form a two-dimensional lattice in intracellular membranes [20].
Alternatively, the increased selectivity can be explained by lateral interaction mechanisms, which have been shown to occur in early vision due to attention [56] [58] and in human audition following exposure to notched-noise stimuli [31], [59].
Additional stabilization of HDs against mechanical stress appears to be mediated by lateral interaction of P1a molecules via their rod domains (Walko et al. 2011).
The higher-order interactions between the ethylene receptors may allow for ethylene receptor signalling conformations to be propagated and amplified by lateral interactions, which might explain how plants can display such a high sensitivity for ethylene.
On the other hand, TP2 translocates slower as its concentration is increased, suggesting that TP2 translocates as a monomer and is inhibited by lateral interactions in the membrane.
Loosely associated FtsZ higher-order structures including bundles, helices, toroids and rings formed by lateral interactions in the presence of molecular crowding agents have also been observed in vitro [5].
This leads to an even greater number of interactions, and cooperativity may exist within a multi-stranded filament of one type, within the other and between them, as facilitated by lateral interactions between the two filaments.
Interestingly, the oligomeric lattices of the N-BAR domain of endophilin have recently been shown to be held together not by lateral interactions, but rather by weak tip-to-tip interactions between consecutive N-BAR dimers and promiscuous antiparallel interactions between the AHs of N-BARs in adjacent rows of the lattice (Mim et al, 2012).
