DnaA and ORC: more than DNA replication initiators [PDF]
Trends in Cell Biology, 2011 Mutations in DNA replication initiator genes in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes lead to a pleiotropic array of phenotypes, including defects in chromosome segregation, cytokinesis, cell cycle regulation and gene expression. For years, it was not clear whether these diverse effects were indirect consequences of perturbed DNA replication, or whether they

Can Kant tell us what to do? Intentions, dilemmas, and the long journey towards moral perfection
Revista de Estudios Kantianos, 2023 The “received view” on Kantian ethics holds that perfect duties enjoy absolute priority over imperfect duties. More recently, several Kantian scholars have reassessed this situation, arguing that imperfect duties may remain binding even if they imply ...
