Reconciling democracy and sustainability: three political challenges and the role of democratic innovations

open access: yesSustainability: Science, Practice, & Policy
Governing sustainability challenges such as climate change or biodiversity loss presents a profound democratic dilemma. Although democratic practices and procedures are widely regarded as essential for collectively addressing complex sustainability ...

El inconsciente teclado: la máquina de escribir en los idiomas inventados de Cortázar

open access: yesCuadernos LIRICO, 2020
This article concerns the origins of Cortázar's imaginary languages as a resullt of the use of the typewriter. Following the proposals of some theorists (Kittler, Mcluhan, Olson), as well as the works and personal letters of the Argentine writer, I would

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Packaging the Naked Buddhas

open access: yesAteliers d'Anthropologie, 2016
This article explores the phenomenon of tourist art in Nepal, as narratives of cultural imaginings, specifically as constructions of identity and meaning through the commodification of “ethnic” art. This demand for the imagined “authentic” has given rise

Modules as exact functors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We can define a module to be an exact functor on a small abelian category. This is explained and shown to be equivalent to the usual definition but it does offer a different perspective, inspired by the notions from model theory of imaginary sort and ...

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Offending White Men: Racial Vilification, Misrecognition, and Epistemic Injustice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this article I analyse two complaints of white vilification, which are increasingly occurring in Australia. I argue that, though the complainants (and white people generally) are not harmed by such racialized speech, the complainants in fact harm ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Dimers and imaginary geometry [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Probability, 2020
We show that the winding of the branches in a uniform spanning tree on a planar graph converge in the limit of fine mesh size to a Gaussian free field. The result holds assuming only convergence of simple random walk to Brownian motion and a Russo–Seymour–Welsh type crossing estimate, thereby establishing a strong form of universality.

Trans-Pacific Imaginaries and Queer Intimacies in the Ruins of Middlesex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Taking up Roland Barthes’s concept of the “third meaning,” Kojima analyzes the character of Julie Kikuchi, the Japanese American love interest of the grown-up Cal. Taking Julie seriously as a character beyond mere plot contrivance and cultural reference,
