0 a device for keeping a door or gate closed, consisting of a metal bar that fits into a hole and is lifted by pushing down on another bar --
1 to close, or close something, with a latch --
2 a fastening device for a door or gate --
If the latch is later disengaged, the spring will push the blocks back to the left.
Do their turns latch or overlap, or are there pauses between them?
In the particular case of the latch just described, the operation can only cause a problem when e is falling.
The latch thus appears to couple nucleotide binding and hydrolysis to topology modification events.
The latch was created into a hierarchy block, and placed inside another schematic called 'overall'.
Although chosen here as an example, the latch shows properties that are encountered quite generally in looped devices.
In an earlier scheme, an angle was to have been welded to this channel to act as a striking plate for a cylindrical latch.
More precisely, with the same notation, all latches are systematically operated in such a way as to ensure that logical variables x are stable when variables e are falling.
