Biofilm formation of mucosa-associated methanoarchaeal strains
Ehlers, Claudia [Alemania. University of Kiel]; Orell, Alvaro [Chile. Universidad Mayor. Centro de Genómica y Bioinformática]; Prasse, Daniela [Alemania. University of Kiel]; Spinner, Marlene [Alemania. University of Kiel]; Gorb, Stanislav N. [Alemania. University of Kiel]; Albers, Sonja-Verena [Alemania. Max Planck Society] (CIENCIAS, 2014)Although in nature most microorganisms are known to occur predominantly in consortia or biofilms, data on archaeal biofilm formation are in general scarce. Here, the ability of three methanoarchaeal strains, Methanobrevibacter ... -
Bioinformatic analyses of unique (orphan) core genes of the genus Acidithiobacillus: Functional inferences and use as molecular probes for genomic and metagenomic/transcriptomic interrogation
González, Carolina [Chile. Universidad Andres Bello. Facultad de Ciencias Biológicas]; Lazcano, Marcelo [Chile. Universidad Andres Bello. Facultad de Ciencias Biológicas]; Valdés, Jorge [Chile. Universidad Mayor. Centro de Genómica y Bioinformática]; Holmes, David S. [Chile. Universidad Andres Bello. Facultad de Ciencias Biológicas] (Facultad de Ciencias, 2016)Using phylogenomic and gene compositional analyses, five highly conserved gene families have been detected in the core genome of the phylogenetically coherent genus Acidithiobacillus of the class Acidithiobacillia. These ... -
Commentary: XBP-1 Is a Cell-Nonautonomous Regulator of Stress Resistance and Longevity
Duran-Aniotz, Claudia [Universidad de Chile]; Cabral-Miranda, Felipe [Universidad de Chile]; Hetz, Claudio [Universidad de Chile] (CIENCIAS, 2016)The life expectancy in the world's population is increasing, highlighting the need of better understanding of the cellular and molecular pathways that drive the aging process. Because aging is the major risk factor to ... -
Ectotherms in Variable Thermal Landscapes: A Physiological Evaluation of the Invasive Potential of Fruit Flies Species
Trefault, Nicole [Chile. Universidad Mayor. Centro de Genómica y Bioinformática]; Estay, Sergio A. [Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile]; Bozinoyic, Francisco [Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile] (CIENCIAS, 2016)Climate change and biological invasions pose one of the greatest threats to biodiversity. Most analyses of the potential biological impacts have focused on changes in mean temperature, but changes in thermal variance may ... -
Effects of donepezil on behavioral manifestations of thalamic infarction: A single-case observation
Riveros, Rodrigo [Chile. Universidad Mayor. Escuela de Psicología]; Chabriat, Hughes [Hopital Lariboisière, Paris]; Flores, Rodrigo [Chile. Instituto de Neurocirugía Dr. Asenjo]; Alvarez, Gonzalo [Chile. Hospital de El Salvador]; Slachevsky, Andrea [Chile. Hospital de El Salvador] (Facultad de Ciencias, 2011)Objective: To examine the effect of donepezil for the treatment of cognitive and behavioral disorders associated with thalamic lesions in a 45-year-old male who suffered an infarct in the left thalamus. Background: Recent ... -
First Report of Vibrio tubiashii Associated with a Massive Larval Mortality Event in a Commercial Hatchery of Scallop Argopecten purpuratus in Chile
Miranda, Claudio D [Chile.Universidad Católica del Norte, Coquimbo]; Santander, Javier [Chile. Universidad Mayor. Facultad de Ciencias]; Romero, Jaime [Universidad de Chile] (CIENCIAS, 2016)The VPAP30 strain was isolated as the highly predominant bacteria from an episode of massive larval mortality occurring in a commercial culture of the Chilean scallop Argopecten purpuratus. The main aims of this study were, ... -
Intra-individual response variability assessed by ex-Gaussian analysis may be a new endophenotype for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
Henríquez-Henríquez, Marcela Patricia [Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile]; Billeke, Pablo [Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile]; Henríquez, Hugo [Chile. Universidad Mayor. Escuela de Tecnología Médica]; Zamorano, Francisco Javier [Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile]; Rothhammer, Francisco [Universidad de Tarapacá. Instituto de Alta Investigación]; Aboitiz, Francisco [Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile] (Facultad de Ciencias, 2015)Intra-individual variability of response times (RTisv) is considered as potential endophenotype for attentional deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Traditional methods for estimating RTisv lose information regarding ...
