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
(2013)"En este trabajo describimos un nuevo proceso para obtener dibenzo[c,f][1,2,5]tiadiazepinas (DBTDs o 2) y sus efectos como modulador de los receptores GABAA de neuronas mientéricas de cobayo. La síntesis de derivados de ... -
Tecia solanivora infestation increases tuber starch accumulation in Pastusa Suprema potatoes
(Wiley, 2018)"In response to infestation with larvae of the Guatemalan tuber moth (Tecia solanivora), some Solanum tuberosum (potato) varieties exhibit an overcompensation response, whereby the total dry mass of uninfested tubers is ... -
Terpenos derivados de Jatropha dioica modulan la multiresistencia a fármacos en línea celulares de carcinoma mamario humano
(2020-12-02)"La multiresistencia a fármacos (MDR, multidrug resistance) es la principal causa de fracaso de la quimioterapia en cáncer, por lo que nuevas moléculas farmacológicamente activas pueden contribuir al desarrollo de nuevos ... -
The arabidopsis-trichoderma interaction reveals that the fungal growth medium is an important factor in plant growth induction
(2018)"Trichoderma spp colonizes the plant rhizosphere and provides pathogen resistance, abiotic stress tolerance, and enhance growth and development. We evaluated the Arabidopsis-Trichoderma interaction using a split system in ... -
The corn smut (‘Huitlacoche’) as a new latform for oral vaccines
(2015-07)"The development of new alternative platforms for subunit vaccine production is a priority in the biomedical field. In this study, Ustilago maydis, the causal agent of common corn smut or 'huitlacoche' has been genetically ... -
The corn smut-made cholera oral vaccine is thermostable and induces long-lasting immunity in mouse
(Elsevier, 2016)"The use of corn smut for the production of recombinant vaccines has been recently implemented by our group. In this study, the stability and immunogenic properties of the corn smut-based cholera vaccine, based on the ... -
The Entry Blocker Peptide Produced in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Inhibits Influenza Viral Replication in vitro
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2021)"This year, a respiratory virus caused an emergency pandemic alert in health services around the world, showing the need for biotechnological approaches to fight these diseases. The influenza virus is one of the main viral ... -
The Epl1 and Sm1 proteins from Trichoderma atroviride and Trichoderma virens differentially modulate systemic disease resistance against different life style pathogens in Solanum lycopersicum
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2015-02)"Fungi belonging to the genus Trichoderma, commonly found in soil or colonizing plant roots, exert beneficial effects on plants, including the promotion of growth and the induction of resistance to disease. T virens and T ... -
The human diabetes proteome project (HDPP): the 2014 update
