(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2015)Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain 629 is an endophyte isolated from Theobroma cacao L. Here, we report the draft genome sequence (3.9 Mb) of B. amyloliquefaciens strain 629 containing 16 contigs (3,903,367 bp), 3,912 coding ... -
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 ... -
Bioinformatic analyses of unique (orphan) core genes of the genus Acidithiobacillus: Functional inferences and use as molecular probes for genomic and metagenomic/transcriptomic interrogation
(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 ... -
Chloropicophyceae, a new class of picophytoplanktonic prasinophytes
(Chile. Universidad Mayor, 2016)Prasinophytes are a paraphyletic group of nine lineages of green microalgae that are currently classified either at the class or order level or as clades without formal taxonomic description. Prasinophyte clade VII comprises ... -
Draft Genome Sequences of Five Enterococcus Species Isolated from the Gut of Patients with Suspected Clostridium Difficile Infection. Genome Announcement
(Facultad de Ciencias, 2017)We present draft genome sequences of five Enterococcus species from patients suspected of Clostridium difficile infection. Genome completeness was confirmed by presence of bacterial orthologs (97%). Gene searches using ... -
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 ... -
Improved ontology for eukaryotic single-exon coding sequences in biological databases
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018)Efficient extraction of knowledge from biological data requires the development of structured vocabularies to unambiguously define biological terms. This paper proposes descriptions and definitions to disambiguate the term ... -
MicroRNA Profiling and Bioinformatics Target Analysis in Dorsal Hippocampus of Chronically Stressed Rats: Relevance to Depression Pathophysiology
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2018)Studies conducted in rodents subjected to chronic stress and some observations in humans after psychosocial stress, have allowed to establish a link between stress and the susceptibility to many complex diseases, including ... -
Effect of yeast (Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous) and plant (Saint John's wort, lemon balm, and rosemary) extract based functional diets on antioxidant and immune status of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) subjected to crowding stress
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD- ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2018)Salmon farming may face stress due to the intensive culture conditions with negative impacts on overall performance. In this aspect, functional feed improves not only the basic nutritional requirements but also the health ... -
Transcriptional profiling of embryos lacking the lipoprotein receptor SR-B1 reveals a regulatory circuit governing a neurodevelopmental or metabolic decision during neural tube closure
(BMC, 2018)Background: The high-density lipoprotein receptor SR-B1 mediates cellular uptake of several lipid species, including cholesterol and vitamin E. During early mouse development, SR-B1 is located in the maternal-fetal interface, ... -
RIP-MD: a tool to study residue interaction networks in protein molecular dynamics
(PEERJ INC, 2018)Protein structure is not static; residues undergo conformational rearrangements and, in doing so, create, stabilize or break non-covalent interactions. Molecular dynamics (MD) is a technique used to simulate these movements ... -
SMZ/SNZ and gibberellin signaling are required for nitrate-elicited delay of flowering time in Arabidopsis thaliana
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018)The reproductive success of plants largely depends on the correct programming of developmental phase transitions, particularly the shift from vegetative to reproductive growth. The timing of this transition is finely ... -
Rule-Based Models and Applications in Biology
(Humana Press, 2018-11-13)Complex systems are governed by dynamic processes whose underlying causal rules are difficult to unravel. However, chemical reactions, molecular interactions, and many other complex systems can be usually represented as ... -
Pleione: A tool for statistical and multi-objective calibration of Rule-based models
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019)Mathematical models based on Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) are frequently used to describe and simulate biological systems. Nevertheless, such models are often difficult to understand. Unlike ODE models, Rule-Based ... -
