Regulation by the Transcriptional Regulator YdcI in E. coli and (p)ppGpp‐Dependent Activation of ydcI Expression

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
YdcI, a LysR‐type transcription regulator in Escherichia coli, regulates loci like iraP and mqo. Its expression is induced by (p)ppGpp under stress conditions, and protein levels rise during mid‐exponential growth, connecting its role to stress response and metabolism control. ABSTRACT YdcI, a LysR‐type transcription regulator, has been associated with

Why Are All the Sets All the Sets?

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Necessitists about set theory think that the pure sets exists, and are the way they are, as a matter of necessity. They cannot explain why the sets (de rebus) are all the sets. This constitutes the Ur‐Objection against necessitism; it is the primary motivation cited by potentialists about set theory.

A Persisting Equivalence

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In several articles, McCall and Lowe have claimed that endurantism and perdurantism are “equivalent.” From this, they conclude that there is no fact of the matter as to whether we live in an endurantist world or in a perdurantist world. In this paper, I use the notion of Morita equivalence to show in which precise sense, McCall and Lowe's ...

Virtuous Deferral

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Virtue epistemology has long struggled with the “Creditability Dilemma”: how can knowledge gained through deference be creditable to the knower if it primarily depends on others’ cognitive work? We propose a novel solution by developing a telic account of doxastic deference as a distinctive kind of social‐epistemic performance.

The Form of Agency

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Philosophers often think agency is essentially connected with rationality, intention, or control. However, Minimalists argue that agency is just the power to cause a change; acids and boulders are agents too. Many philosophers treat Minimalism as a wild outlier, assuming its falsity without argument.
