• Arabidopsis DNA glycosylase MBD4L improves recovery of aged seeds 

      Lescano Lopez, Carlos Ignacio; Torres, José Roberto; Cecchini, Nicolás Miguel; Alvarez, María Elena (Wiley, 2024-07-04)
      DNA glycosylases initiate the base excision repair (BER) pathway by catalyzing the removal of damaged or mismatched bases from DNA. The Arabidopsis DNA glycosylase methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 4 like (MBD4L) is a ...
    • Convergent Epigenetic Mechanisms Avoid Constitutive Expression of Immune Receptor Gene Subsets 

      Cambiagno, Damian Alejandro; Torres, José Roberto; Alvarez, María Elena (Frontiers Media, 2021-09-07)
      The gene pool encoding PRR and NLR immune receptors determines the ability of a plant to resist microbial infections. Basal expression of these genes is prevented by diverse mechanisms since their hyperactivity can be ...
