• Análisis funcional de Snakin - 1 en plantas transgénicas de Solanum tuberosum 

      Nahirñak, Vanesa (Facultad de Agronomía, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 2015-04)
      Snakin-1 (SN1)es un péptido antimicrobiano rico en cisteínas aislado a partir de Solanum tuberosum que fue clasificado como miembro de la familia Snakin/GASA. Con el objetivo de estudiar el rol de SN1 in planta, se realizó ...
    • Genome-wide data (ChIP-seq) enabled identification of cell wall-related and aquaporin genes as targets of tomato ASR1, a drought stress-responsive transcription factor 

      Ricardi, Martiniano María; González, Rodrigo Matías; Silin, Zhong; Dominguez, Pia Guadalupe; Duffy, Tomas; Turjanski, Pablo Guillermo; Salgado Salter, Juan David; Alleva, Karina Edith; Carrari, Fernando; Giovannoni, James J.; Estevez, Jose Manuel; Iusem, Norberto Daniel (BMC, 2014-01)
      Background: Identifying the target genes of transcription factors is important for unraveling regulatory networks in all types of organisms. Our interest was precisely to uncover the spectrum of loci regulated by a widespread ...
    • Mycobacterial MCE proteins as transporters that control lipid homeostasis of the cell wall 

      Klepp, Laura Ines; Sabio Y Garcia, Julia Veronica; Bigi, Fabiana (Elsevier, 2022-01)
      Mammalian cell entry (mce) genes are not only present in genomes of pathogenic mycobacteria, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis (the causative agent of tuberculosis), but also in saprophytic and opportunistic mycobacterial ...
    • Potato Snakin-1 Gene Silencing Affects Cell Division, Primary Metabolism, and Cell Wall Composition 

      Nahirñak, Vanesa; Almasia, Natalia Ines; Fernandez, Paula Virginia; Hopp, Horacio Esteban; Estevez, Jose Manuel; Carrari, Fernando; Vazquez Rovere, Cecilia (American Society of Plant Biologists, 2012-01)
      Snakin-1 (SN1) is an antimicrobial cysteine-rich peptide isolated from potato (Solanum tuberosum) that was classified as a member of the Snakin/Gibberellic Acid Stimulated in Arabidopsis protein family. In this work, a ...
    • Soybean responseto initial stage of Fusarium virguliforme infection 

      Giachero, María Lorena; Marquez, Nathalie; Ortega, Leandro Ismael; Ducasse, Daniel Adrian (BioRxiv, 2022-03-07)
      Fusarium virguliforme causes the Sudden Death Syndrome, an important disease in soybean crops. In this work, we investigated the defensive response mechanisms in soybean root, at cell wall level, during F. virguliforme ...
    • Tuberculosis vaccine candidates based on mycobacterial cell envelope components 

      Sarmiento, María E.; Alvarez, N.; Chin, K.L.; Bigi, Fabiana; Tirado Hernández, Yanely; García, M.A.; Anis, F.Z.; Norazmi, Mohd Nor; Acosta, Armando (Elsevier, 2019-03)
      Even after decades searching for a new and more effective vaccine against tuberculosis, the scientific community is still pursuing this goal due to the complexity of its causative agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). ...
