A Novel Method to Predict Genomic Islands Based on Mean Shift Clustering Algorithm
Maracaja-Coutinho, Vinicius [Chile. Universidad Mayor. Centro de Genómica y Bioinformática]; De Farias, Savio T. [Brasil. Universidade Federal da Paraiba]; Batista, Leonardo V. [Brasil. Universidade Federal da Paraiba] (CIENCIAS, 2016)Genomic Islands (GIs) are regions of bacterial genomes that are acquired from other organisms by the phenomenon of horizontal transfer. These regions are often responsible for many important acquired adaptations of the ... -
Characterization of bacterial, archaeal and eukaryote symbionts from antarctic sponges reveals a high diversity at a three-domain level and a particular signature for this ecosystem
De la Iglesia, Rodrigo [Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile]; Diez, Beatriz [Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile]; Fonseca, Cassio A. [Brasil. Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro]; Hajdu, Eduardo [Brasil. Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro]; Trefault, Nicole [Chile. Universidad Mayor. Centro de Genómica y Bioinformática] (CIENCIAS, 2015)Sponge-associated microbial communities include members from the three domains of life. In the case of bacteria, they are diverse, host specific and different from the surrounding seawater. However, little is known about ... -
Domestic Dogs in Rural Communities around Protected Areas: Conservation Problem or Conflict Solution?
Singer, Randall S. [Universidad Austral de Chile, Valdivia]; Silva-Rodríguez, Eduardo A. [Chile. Universidad Andrés Bello]; Stowhas, Paulina [Chile. Universidad Mayor] (CIENCIAS, 2014)Although domestic dogs play many important roles in rural households, they can also be an important threat to the conservation of wild vertebrates due to predation, competition and transmission of infectious diseases. An ... -
Extensive Identification of Bacterial Riboflavin Transporters and Their Distribution across Bacterial Species
Torres, Alfredo Gabriel [University of Texas. Medical Branch]; Merino, Enrique [México. UNAM]; Ruy Bonomi, Hernán [Argentina. IIBBA CONICET]; Antonio Garcia-Angulo, Víctor [Chile. Universidad Mayor. Centro de Genómica y Bioinformática] (CIENCIAS, 2015)Riboflavin, the precursor for the cofactors flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide, is an essential metabolite in all organisms. While the functions for de novo riboflavin biosynthesis and riboflavin ...
