Simple approach for ranking structure determining residues
(2016-06)"Mutating residues has been a common task in order to study structural properties of the protein of interest. Here, we propose and validate a simple method that allows the identification of structural determinants; i.e., ... -
Simultaneous silencing of two arginine decarboxylase genes alters development in Arabidopsis
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2016-03)"Polyamines (PAs) are small aliphatic polycations that are found ubiquitously in all organisms. In plants, PAs are involved in diverse biological processes such as growth, development, and stress responses. In Arabidopsis ... -
Smilax aristolochiifolia root extract and its compounds chlorogenic acidand astilbin inhibit the activity of alpha-amylase and alpha-glucosidase enzymes
(2018)"Regulating activities of -amylase and -glucosidase through the use of specific inhibitors is a main strategy for controlling type 2 diabetes. Smilax aristolochiifolia root decoctions are traditionally used in Mexico as ... -
Stability of FeVO4 under pressure: an x-ray diffraction and first principles study
(2018)"The high-pressure behavior of the crystalline structure FeVO4 has been studied by means of X-ray diffraction using a diamond-anvil cell and first-principles calculations. The experiments were carried out up to a pressure ... -
Structural basis for redox regulation of cytoplasmic and chloroplastic triosephosphate isomerases from Arabidopsis thaliana
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2016-12)"In plants triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) interconyerts glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P) and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) during glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, and the Calvin-Benson cycle. The nuclear genome of land ... -
Structural insights into the IgE mediated responses induced by the allergens Hev b 8 and Zea m 12 in their dimeric forms
(2016-09)"Oligomerization of allergens plays an important role in IgE-mediated reactions, as effective crosslinking of IgE-Fc epsilon RI complexes on the cell membrane is dependent on the number of exposed B-cell epitopes in a ... -
Substrate-induced dimerization of engineered monomeric variants of triosephosphate isomerase from Trichomonas vaginalis
(2015-11)"The dimeric nature of triosephosphate isomerases (TIMs) is maintained by an extensive surface area interface of more than 1600 angstrom 2. TIMs from Trichomonas vaginalis (TvTIM) are held in their dimeric state by two ... -
Subtelomeric silencing of the MTL3 locus of Candida glabrata requires yKu70, yKu80, and Rif1 proteins
(2010-10)"Candida glabrata is a haploid opportunistic fungal pathogen that is phylogenetically related to Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Even though C. glabrata has no known sexual cycle, it contains, like S. cerevisiae, three mating ... -
Synergistic exposure of rice seeds to different doses of y-ray and salinity stress resulted in increased antioxidant enzyme activities and gene-specific modulation of TC-NER pathway
(2014)"Recent reports have underlined the potential of gamma (γ)-rays as tools for seed priming, a process used in seed industry to increase seed vigor and to enhance plant tolerance to biotic/abiotic stresses. However, the ... -
Synthesis and electrophysiological evaluation of 6,11-dihydrodibenzo[c,f][1,2,5]thiadiazepine-5,5-dioxide (DBTD): non-competitive GABAA receptor antagonists
