The transcription factor EFG1 functions as a suppressor of white-to-opaque and white-to-gray switching in a/α strains of Candida albicans. In a collection of 27 clinical isolates, 4 of the 17 EFG1/EFG1 strains, 1 of the 2 EFG1/efg1 strains, and all 8 of ...

N-acetylglucosamine induces white to opaque switching, a mating prerequisite in Candida albicans. [PDF]
To mate, the fungal pathogen Candida albicans must undergo homozygosis at the mating-type locus and then switch from the white to opaque phenotype. Paradoxically, opaque cells were found to be unstable at physiological temperature, suggesting that mating

Observation of spatial quantum correlations induced by multiple scattering of non-classical light [PDF]
We present the experimental realization of spatial quantum correlations of photons that are induced by multiple scattering of squeezed light. The quantum correlation relates photons propagating along two different light trajectories through the random ...

Breeding quality protein maize (Zea mays): Genetic and analytical perspective
Maize is one of the prominent cereal crops locally as well as internationally for both biological and industrial processing. The nutritional value of maize grains is graded to be poor due to limiting essential amino acids mainly lysine and tryptophan.

Stealthy Opaque Predicates in Hardware - Obfuscating Constant Expressions at Negligible Overhead
Opaque predicates are a well-established fundamental building block for software obfuscation. Simplified, an opaque predicate implements an expression that provides constant Boolean output, but appears to have dynamic behavior for static analysis.

Morphosemantic activation of opaque Chinese words in sentence comprehension.
Two cross-modal priming experiments were conducted to investigate morphological processing in Chinese spoken word recognition during sentence comprehension. Participants heard sentences that contained opaque prime words and performed lexical decisions on

Large-Scale Structures Behind the Milky Way from Near-IR Surveys [PDF]
About 25% of the optical extragalactic sky is obscured by the dust and stars of our Milky Way. Dynamically important structures might still lie hidden in this zone. Various approaches are presently being employed to uncover the galaxy distribution in the

What Do Animals See? Intentionality, Objects and Kantian Nonconceptualism [PDF]
This article addresses three questions concerning Kant’s views on non-rational animals: do they intuit spatio-temporal particulars, do they perceive objects, and do they have intentional states?

Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase Is Involved in the Decarboxylation of Aspartate in the Bundle Sheath of Maize [PDF]
We recently showed that maize (Zea mays L.) leaves contain appreciable amounts of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK; R.P. Walker, R.M. Acheson, L.I. Técsi, R.C. Leegood [1997] Aust J Plant Physiol 24: 459–468).
