A dehydrin-dehydrin interaction: the case of SK3 from Opuntia streptacantha
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2014-10)"Dehydrins belongs to a large group of highly hydrophilic proteins known as Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) proteins. It is well known that dehydrins are intrinsically disordered plant proteins that accumulate during the ... -
Molecular modeling and expression analysis of a MADS-box cDNA from mango (Mangifera indica L.)
(2014-08)"MADS-box genes are a large family of transcription factors initially discovered for their role during development of flowers and fruits. The MADS-box transcription factors from animals have been studied by X-ray protein ... -
Genetic diversity of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex in San Luis Potosí, México
(2013)"Background Although epidemiologic and socioeconomic criteria and biomedical risk factors indicate high-priority for tuberculosis (TB) control in Mexico, molecular epidemiology studies of the disease in the country are ... -
Occurrence of killer Candida glabrata clinical isolates
(2012)"In this work we characterized the occurrence of killer activity in 64 Candida glabrata clinical isolates under different conditions. We found that only 6.25 % of the clinical isolates tested were positive for killer ... -
High resistance to oxidative stress in the fungal pathogen Candida glabrata is mediated by a single catalase, Cta1p, and is controlled by the transcription factors Yap1p, Skn7p, Msn2p, and Msn4p
(2008-05)"We characterized the oxidative stress response of Candida glabrata to better understand the virulence of this fungal pathogen. C. glabrata could withstand higher concentrations of H2O2 than Saccharomyces cerevisiae and ... -
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 ... -
yKu70/yKu80 and Rif1 regulate silencing differentially at telomeres in Candida glabrata
(2008-12)"Candida glabrata, a common opportunistic fungal pathogen, adheres efficiently to mammalian epithelial cells in culture. This interaction in vitro depends mainly on the adhesin Epa1, one of a large family of cell wall ... -
Characterization of volatile compounds from ethnic Agave alcoholic beverages by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
(Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology, University of Zagreb, 2008)"Ethnic Agave alcoholic beverages such as raicilla, sisal, tequila, mezcal, bacanora, sotol and pulque have been analyzed by gas chromatography and headspace solid-phase microextraction- gas chromatography-mass spectrometry ... -
Optimization of bioethanol production from coffee mucilage
(2015-08)"A response surface methodology with 2(k) full factorial design was applied to obtain optimum conditions for bioethanol production using coffee mucilage (CM) as the substrate and Saccharomyces cerevisiae NRRL Y-2034 as the ... -
Differences in plant cover and species composition of semiarid grassland communities of central Mexico and its effects on net ecosystem exchange
(2013)"Changes in land use across the semiarid grasslands of northern Mexico have driven a decline of plant cover and alteration of plant species composition. A number of different plant communities have resulted from these ... -
Technical note: application of geophysical tools for tree root studies in forest ecosystems in complex soils
(2017-11)"While semiarid forests frequently colonize rocky substrates, knowledge is scarce on how roots garner resources in these extreme habitats. The Sierra San Miguelito Volcanic Complex in central Mexico exhibits shallow soils ... -
Butterfly conservation within cities: a landscape scale approach integrating natural habitats and abandoned fields in central Mexico
(2016-06)"Growing urbanization and the expansion of the agricultural frontier in tropical ecosystems have generated patchy landscapes composed of remnants of natural habitats and abandoned fields. This scenario offers an opportunity ... -
Regionalization and classification of bioclimatic zones in the central-northeastern region of México using principal component analysis (PCA)
(2007)"Utilizando un análisis de componentes principales, determinamos zonas climáticas en un gradiente topográfico en la zona centro-noreste de México. Se emplearon datos de precipitación y temperatura medias mensuales por un ... -
Potential distributional patterns of three wild ungulate species in a fragmented tropical region of northeastern Mexico
(2013)"In the northernmost American tropical forests of eastern Mexico, we analyzed the potential distribution of three ungulate species, Odocoileus virginianus, Mazama temama and Pecari tajacu, in response to several physical, ... -
Strobilus and seed production of Dioon edule (Zamiaceae) in a population with low seedling density in San Luis Potosí, Mexico
(2013)"We describe strobilus and seed development in a Dioon edule (chamal, palma, dameu') population characterized by low seedling and high adult tree density, in order to improve conservation decisions for this endangered cycad ... -
Raptor functional diversity in scrubland-agricultural landscapes of northern-central-Mexican dryland environments
(2017-06)"Raptor birds have widespread distributions in different environments throughout the planet. Yet, they are highly sensitive to landscape disturbances. We studied raptors in northern-central Mexico at the Highland plateau ... -
Connectivity among jaguar populations in the Sierra Madre Oriental, México
(2015)"Introduction: The jaguar (Panthera onca) is an apex carnivore that is vulnerable to habitat fragmentation, and some of its populations are believed to be isolated in México where it is classed as endangered. The main the ... -
Effects of burial depth on seed germination and seedling emergence of Mexican oaks: a glasshouse experiment
(2012)"Despite the interest in restoring oak forests in Mexico, very little is known about their regeneration ecology. We assessed the influence of acorn burial depth on seed germination and seedling emergence for eight Mexican ... -
Comparación en la germinación de semillas y crecimiento de plántulas entre gramíneas nativas y exóticas del pastizal semiárido
(2009-09)"En los pastizales del norte de México se han introducido gramíneas de origen africano, con el propósito fundamental de controlar la erosión del suelo e incrementar la productividad. Estas especies en lo general exhiben ... -
