Engineering a single-chain antibody against Trypanosoma cruzi metacyclic trypomastigotes to block cell invasion
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2019-10-16)Trypanosoma cruzi is a flagellate protozoan pathogen that causes Chagas disease. Currently there is no preventive treatment and the efficiency of the two drugs available is limited to the acute phase. Therefore, there is ... -
Evaluation of the Abundance of DNA-Binding Transcription Factors in Prokaryotes
(MDPI, 2020)The ability of bacteria and archaea to modulate metabolic process, defensive response, and pathogenic capabilities depend on their repertoire of genes and capacity to regulate the expression of them. Transcription factors ... -
Evolution of Predicted Acid Resistance Mechanisms in the Extremely Acidophilic Leptospirillum Genus
(MDPI Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2020-04)Organisms that thrive in extremely acidic environments (<= pH 3.5) are of widespread importance in industrial applications, environmental issues, and evolutionary studies. Leptospirillum spp. constitute the only extremely ... -
Filtering of Data-Driven Gene Regulatory Networks Using Drosophila melanogaster as a Case Study
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-07-28)Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs) allow the study of regulation of gene expression of whole genomes. Among the most relevant advantages of using networks to depict this key process, there is the visual representation of large ... -
Gadolinium Chloride Rescues Niemann-Pick Type C Liver Damage
(MDPI, 2018)Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) disease is a rare neurovisceral cholesterol storage disorder that arises from loss of function mutations in the NPC1 or NPC2 genes. Soon after birth, some patients present with an aggressive ... -
Gene Regulatory Networks of Penicillium echinulatum 2HH and Penicillium oxalicum 114-2 Inferred by a Computational Biology Approach
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020-10)Penicillium echinulatum 2HH and Penicillium oxalicum 114-2 are well-known cellulase fungal producers. However, few studies addressing global mechanisms for gene regulation of these two important organisms are available so ... -
Genome-based classification of Acidihalobacter prosperus F5 (=DSM 105917=JCM 32255) as Acidihalobacter yilgarnensis sp. nov
(MICROBIOLOGY SOCIETY, 2020-12)The genus Acidihalobacter has three validated species, Acidihalobacter ferrooxydans, Acidihalobacter prosperus and Acidihalobacter aeolinanus, all of which were isolated from Vulcano island, Italy. They are obligately ... -
High quality RNA extraction from Maqui berry for its application in next-generation sequencing
(CIENCIAS, 2016)Maqui berry (Aristotelia chilensis) is a native Chilean species that produces berries that are exceptionally rich in anthocyanins and natural antioxidants. These natural compounds provide an array of health benefits for ... -
High-Quality Draft Genome Sequence of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens Strain 629, an Endophyte from Theobroma cacao
