An Observation of a Very High Swelling of Bromovirus Members at Specific Ionic Strengths and pH
(MDPI, 2023)Cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CCMV) and brome mosaic virus (BMV) are naked plant viruses with similar characteristics; both form a T = 3 icosahedral protein capsid and are members of the bromoviridae family. It is well ... -
Multiplex assay for the simultaneous detection of antibodies against small ruminant lentivirus, Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis, and Brucella melitensis in goats
(Veterinary World, 2023)Background and Aim: Brucellosis, paratuberculosis (PTb), and infections caused by small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV), formerly known as caprine arthritis encephalitis virus (CAEV), adversely affect goat production systems. ... -
Neo-functionalization in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: a novel Nrg1-Rtg3 chimeric transcriptional modulator is essential to maintain mitochondrial DNA integrity
(The Royal Society, 2023)In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the transcriptional repressor Nrg1 (Negative Regulator of Glucose-repressed genes) and the ?-Zip transcription factor Rtg3 (ReTroGrade regulation) mediate glucose repression and signalling from ... -
Cell-type dependent regulation of pluripotency and chromatin remodeling genes by hydralazine
(Springer Nature, 2023)Background The generation of induced pluripotent stem cells has opened the field of study for stem cell research, disease modeling and drug development. However, the epigenetic signatures present in somatic cells make cell ... -
Phenolic Compounds in Agro-Industrial Waste of Mango Fruit: Impact on Health and Prebiotic Effect – a Review
(Institute of Animal Reproduction and Food Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Olsztyn, 2023)The fruit processing industry generates huge amounts of waste annually, causing severe environmental problems. Mango processing produces around 20 million tons of wastes from the non-consumed fraction, mainly peels and ... -
Graphene–Cu Nanocomposites Induce Tolerance against Fusarium oxysporum, Increase Antioxidant Activity, and Decrease Stress in Tomato Plants
(MDPI, 2023)The tomato crop is susceptible to various types of stress, both biotic and abiotic, which affect the morphology, physiology, biochemistry, and genetic regulation of plants. Among the biotic factors, is the phytopathogen ... -
Expression of EPL1 from Trichoderma atroviride in Arabidopsis Confers Resistance to Bacterial and Fungal Pathogens
(MDPI, 2023)During plant interaction with beneficial microorganisms, fungi secrete a battery of elicitors that trigger plant defenses against pathogenic microorganisms. Among the elicitor molecules secreted by Trichoderma are ... -
