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 ... -
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 ... -
Effect of salt stress on polyamine metabolism in two bean cultivars
(2008)"In agricultural areas, salinity affects plant growth, development and productivity, causing loss of economically important crops. Nitrogenderived compounds such as polyamines (PAs) are differentially accumulated in diverse ... -
Genomic organization of purinergic P2X receptors
(2015-08)"Purinergic P2X receptors are a family of ligand-gated cationic channels activated by extracellular ATP. P2X subunit protein sequences are highly conserved between vertebrate species. However, they can generate a great ... -
La expresión neonatal de microRNAs como potenciales biomarcadores tempranos del síndrome metabólico
(2015)"El síndrome metabólico es un trastorno caracterizado por obesidad, hipertensión arterial, hipercolesterolemia, hiperlipidemia y alteraciones en el metabolismo de la glucosa, y constituye un factor de riesgo para el ... -
Morphological and genetic characteristics allow the identification of a collection of garlic cultivars in the North-Central region of Mexico
(2008)"The objective of this study was to compare the yield and genetic relationships between two Perla garlic selections, obtained by individual selection of cloves, and commercial varieties and cultivars adapted to diverse ... -
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., ... -
Community of thermoacidophilic and arsenic resistant microorganisms isolated from a deep profile of mine heaps
(2015-08)"Soluble arsenic (As) in acidic feed solution may inhibit the copper (Cu) bioleaching process within mine heaps. To clarify the effect of soluble arsenic on the live biomass and bioxidative activity in heaps, toxicological ... -
The separation between the 5′-3′ ends in long RNA molecules is short and nearly constant
(2014-12)"RNA molecules play different roles in coding, decoding and gene expression regulation. Such roles are often associated to the RNA secondary or tertiary structures. The folding dynamics lead to multiple secondary structures ... -
Molecular and biochemical characterization of extracellular tannin acyl hydrolase activity from a Mexican isolate of Aspergillus niger
(2010-12)"Microbial tannase, a hydrolysable tannin-degrading enzyme, is extensively used in manufacture of instant tea, beer, wine, and gallic acid. Aspergillus niger strain, obtained from a Mexican tannery wastewaters rich in ... -
Dibenzo[1,2,5]thiadiazepines are non-competitive GABAA receptor antagonists
(MDPI, 2013)"A new process for obtaining dibenzo[c,f][1,2,5]thiadiazepines (DBTDs) and their effects on GABAA receptors of guinea pig myenteric neurons are described. Synthesis of DBTD derivatives began with two commercial aromatic ... -
Genotyping of the MTL loci and susceptibility to two antifungal agents of Candida glabrata clinical isolates
(2009-08)"The opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida glabrata is the second most common isolate from bloodstream infections worldwide and is naturally less susceptible to the antifungal drug fluconazole than other Candida species. ... -
Oxidative stress response to menadione and cumene hydroperoxide in the opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida glabrata
(2009-07)"Candida glabrata is an opportunistic fungal pathogen that can cause severe invasive infections and can evade phagocytic cell clearance. We are interested in understanding the virulence of this fungal pathogen, in particular ... -
Effect of salt stress, proline, and polyamines on seed germination of Opuntia streptacantha
(2008)"In this study we conducted experiments in order to determine whether polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, and spermine) and proline treatments help to break seed dormancy of Opuntia streptacantha and also if they facilitate ... -
Effects of nitrogen-doped multiwall carbon nanotubes on murine fibroblasts
(2015)"The effect of nitrogen-doped multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNx) on the proliferation of NIH-3T3murine fibroblasts is presented. CNTs were dispersed in distillated water and incubated with mammalian cells in order to evaluate ... -
Proteomic analysis of amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus L.) leaves under drought stress
(2009-04)"Amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus L.) is a plant that produces seed with high protein content, is rich on nutraceutical compounds, and can grow under environmental conditions where most of the basic crops are not able ... -
HR4 gene is induced in the Arabidopsis-Trichoderma atroviride beneficial interaction
(MDPI, 2012)"Plants are constantly exposed to microbes, for this reason they have evolved sophisticated strategies to perceive and identify biotic interactions. Thus, plants have large collections of so-called resistance (R) proteins ... -
The Opuntia streptacantha OpsHSP18 gene confers salt and osmotic stress tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana
(MDPI, 2012)"Abiotic stress limits seed germination, plant growth, flowering and fruit quality, causing economic decrease. Small Heat Shock Proteins (sHSPs) are chaperons with roles in stress tolerance. Herein, we report the functional ... -
