Gorenstein weak global dimension is symmetric [PDF]
We study the Gorenstein weak global dimension of associative rings and its relation to the Gorenstein global dimension. In particular, we prove the conjecture that the Gorenstein weak global dimension is a left-right symmetric invariant -- just like the (absolute) weak global dimension.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis exhibits a remarkable resilience to acid stress. In this Review, we discuss some of the molecular mechanisms and metabolic pathways used by the tubercle bacilli to adapt and resist host‐mediated acid stress. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a successful pathogen that has developed a variety of strategies to survive and ...

Global stability of Oldroyd-B fluids in plane Couette flow [PDF]
We prove conditions for global nonlinear stability of Oldroyd-B viscoelatic fluid flows in the Couette shear flow geometry. Global stability is inferred by analysing a new functional, called a perturbation entropy, to quantify the magnitude of the polymer perturbations from their steady-state values.

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae amino acid transporter Lyp1 has a broad substrate spectrum
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Yeast Amino acid Transporter family members mediate the import of amino acids, ranging from substrate specialists to generalists. Here, we show that the specialist transporter, Lyp1, has a broader substrate spectrum than previously described, with affinity constants spanning from micromolar to millimolar.
