Short timescale dynamics of phytoplankton in Fildes Bay, Antarctica
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2017)
Phytoplankton is responsible for most primary production in Antarctica, but the short timescale dynamics of its size structure and composition are poorly described and understood. The abundance and composition of phytoplankton ...
Transgenerational diapause as an avoidance strategy against bacterial pathogens in Caenorhabditis elegans
(American Society for Microbiology, 2017)
The dynamic response of organisms exposed to environmental pathogens determines their survival or demise, and the outcome of this interaction depends on the host’s susceptibility and pathogen-dependent virulence factors. ...
Effectiveness of interventions to prevent motorcycle injuries: systematic review of the literature
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS, 2017)
Globally, 49% of deaths from traffic crashes occur among vulnerable road users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorcyclists. Approximately, a quarter of those killed are motorcyclists. The authors carried out a ...
Wing phosphorylation is a major functional determinant of the Lrs14-type biofilm and motility regulator AbfR1 in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2017)
In response to a variety of environmental cues, prokaryotes can switch between a motile and a sessile, biofilm-forming mode of growth. The regulatory mechanisms and signaling pathways underlying this switch are largely ...
LeishDB: a database of coding gene annotation and non-coding RNAs in Leishmania braziliensis
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
Leishmania braziliensis is the etiological agent of cutaneous leishmaniasis, a disease with high public health importance, affecting 12 million people worldwide. Although its genome sequence was originally published in ...
Identification of Azadinium poporum (Dinophyceae) in the Southeast Pacific: Morphology, molecular phylogeny, and azaspiracid profile characterization
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
Azaspiracids (AZA), a group of lipophilic phycotoxins, are produced by some species of the marine dinophycean genus Azadinium. AZA have recently been detected in shellfish from the Southeast Pacific, however, AZA-producing ...
Defective sperm head decondensation undermines the success of ICSI in the bovine
(BioScientifica Ltd., 2017)
The efficiency of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in the bovine is low compared to other species. It is unknown whether defective oocyte activation and/or sperm head decondensation limit the success of this technique ...
Phenotype of Aeromonas salmonicida sp. salmonicida cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate receptor protein (Crp) mutants and its virulence in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2017)
Precise deletion of genes related to virulence can be used as a strategy to produce attenuated bacterial vaccines. Here, we study the deletion of the cyclic-3,5-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) receptor protein (Crp) in ...
¿Puede el ejercicio físico per se disminuir el peso corporal en sujetos con sobrepeso/obesidad?
(Sociedad Medica de Santiago, 2017)
The prevalence of overweight and obesity is increasing, creating a public health problem. The loss of approximately 10% of body weight is recommended to reduce the risk of mortality associated with metabolic diseases and ...
Draft genome sequence of Epilithonimonas sp. FP211-J200, isolated from an outbreak episode on a rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) farm
(American Society for Microbiology, 2017)
Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Epilithonimonas sp. FP211-J200, isolated from rainbow trout head kidney cells. The size of the genome is 4,110,772 bp, with a G+C content of 37.1%. The Epilithonimonas sp. ...
