One novel long-travel piezoelectric-driven linear micropositioning stage capable of moving in a stepping mode is developed. The stick-slip friction effect between flexure hinge actuation tips with a sliding stage is used to drive the stage step-by-step through an enlarged displacement of piezoelectric actuator. In order to enlarge the travel range, magnifying mechanism is optimally designed by use of flexure hinge and lever beam. Moreover, dynamic model of such stage is proposed by consideration of reset integrator stick-slip model. The simulation results show that the stage has considerable good dynamic properties.

In RBL-2H3 rat basophilic leukemia cells, antigen binding to cell surface IgE-receptor complexes stimulates the release of inflammatory mediators and initiates a series of membrane and cytoskeletal events including a transformation of the cell surface from a microvillous to a lamellar topography. It is likely that dynamic properties of the IgE receptor contribute to the activation of these responses. Fewtrell and Metzger have established that limited crosslinking of IgE-receptor complexes is essential to trigger secretion. In addition, Baird and colleagues have reported that antigen binding causes a rapid immobilization of IgE-receptor complexes, and we have demonstrated an apparent increase with time in the affinity of IgE-receptor complexes for antigen.

In the 30 years since the discovery of the nucleosome, our picture of it has come into sharp focus. The recent high-resolution structures have provided a wealth of insight into the function of the nucleosome, but they are inherently static. Our current knowledge of how nucleosomes can be reconfigured dynamically is at a much earlier stage. Here, recent advances in the understanding of chromatin structure and dynamics are highlighted. The ways in which different modes of nucleosome reconfiguration are likely to influence each other are discussed, and some of the factors likely to regulate the dynamic properties of nucleosomes are considered.
