Capsules from pathogenic and non-pathogenic Cryptococcus spp. manifest significant differences in structure and ability to protect against phagocytic cells. [PDF]
Capsule production is common among bacterial species, but relatively rare in eukaryotic microorganisms. Members of the fungal Cryptococcus genus are known to produce capsules, which are major determinants of virulence in the highly pathogenic species ...

The $Z$-invariant massive Laplacian on isoradial graphs
We introduce a one-parameter family of massive Laplacian operators $(\Delta^{m(k)})_{k\in[0,1)}$ defined on isoradial graphs, involving elliptic functions. We prove an explicit formula for the inverse of $\Delta^{m(k)}$, the massive Green function, which

New gymnamoebae species (Gymnamoebia) in the fauna of Ukraine [PDF]
Lobose gymnamoebae (representatives of the subclass Gymnamoebia Haeckel, 1862, class Lobosea Carpenter, 1861) inhabit almost all water and soil biotopes.

The Kaumoebavirus LCC10 Genome Reveals a Unique Gene Strand Bias among “Extended Asfarviridae”
Kaumoebavirus infects the amoeba Vermamoeba vermiformis and has recently been described as a distant relative of the African swine fever virus. To characterize the diversity and evolution of this novel viral genus, we report here on the isolation and ...

The vanishing cycles of curves in toric surfaces II
We resume the study initiated in \cite{CL}. For a generic curve $C$ in an ample linear system $\vert \mathcal{L} \vert$ on a toric surface $X$, a vanishing cycle of $C$ is an isotopy class of simple closed curve that can be contracted to a point along a ...

Dimer Models from Mirror Symmetry and Quivering Amoebae [PDF]
Dimer models are 2-dimensional combinatorial systems that have been shown to encode the gauge groups, matter content and tree-level superpotential of the world-volume quiver gauge theories obtained by placing D3-branes at the tip of a singular toric ...

Dimer models and conformal structures
Abstract Dimer models have been the focus of intense research efforts over the last years. Our paper grew out of an effort to develop new methods to study minimizers or the asymptotic height functions of general dimer models and the geometry of their frozen boundaries.
