A helical-dipole model describes the single-channel current rectification of an uncharged peptide ion channel.
For simplicity, we have assumed that the monocular simple cells implement only half-wave rectification.
The basis for this rectification has been explored theoretically by two groups, and experimentally by one of them.
Secondly, and unlike the principles of acquisition and transfer, the principle of rectification is given no formal expression.
The inward rectification was eliminated by extracellular cesium (data not shown).
The macroscopic behavior is accounted for by the rectification of the single-channel conductance.
Such a rectification follows naturally from the shunting inhibitory connection in the present model.
For example, corrective justice commands rectification by wrongdoers but fails to supply a theory of wrongdoing, without which policy questions cannot be resolved.
