EcXyl43 β-xylosidase: molecular modeling, activity on natural and artificial substrates, and synergism with endoxylanases for lignocellulose deconstruction
(Springer, 2018-08)Biomass hydrolysis constitutes a bottleneck for the biotransformation of lignocellulosic residues into bioethanol and high-value products. The efficient deconstruction of polysaccharides to fermentable sugars requires ... -
Characterization of the two component regulatory system PhoPR in Mycobacterium bovis
(Elsevier, 2018-08)Mycobacterium bovis is the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis and is a member of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, which causes tuberculosis in a number of mammals including humans. Previous studies have shown that ... -
Biotechnological applications of occlusion bodies of Baculoviruses
(Springer, 2018-08)The ability of Baculoviruses to hyper-express very late genes as polyhedrin, the major component of occlusion bodies (OBs) or polyhedra, has allowed the evolution of a system of great utility for biotechnology. The main ... -
Potato snakin-1 gene enhances tolerance to Rhizoctonia solani and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in transgenic lettuce plants
(Elsevier, 2018-10)Snakin-1 is a cysteine-rich antimicrobial peptide (AMP) isolated from potato tubers, with broad-spectrum activity. It belongs to the Snakin/GASA family, whose members have been studied because of their diverse roles ... -
Crop metabolomics : from diagnostics to assisted breeding
(Springer, 2018-11)Background Until recently, plant metabolomics have provided a deep understanding on the metabolic regulation in individual plants as experimental units. The application of these techniques to agricultural systems subjected ... -
A tomato tocopherol-binding protein sheds light on intracellular a-tocopherol metabolism in plants
(Oxford University Press, 2018-11)Tocopherols are non-polar compounds synthesized in the plastids, which function as major antioxidants of the plant cells and are essential in the human diet. Both the intermediates and final products of the tocopherol ... -
Recombinant occlusion bodies of baculovirus as carriers of a nonstructural protein of foot-and-mouth disease virus
(Springer, 2018-11)Here, we developed a diagnostic ELISA for foot-and-mouth disease using recombinant occlusion bodies (rOBs) of baculovirus. We fused Δ3AB1–3, a polypeptide derived from non-structural proteins of foot-and-mouth disease ... -
Immune receptor genes and pericentromeric transposons as targets of common epigenetic regulatory elements
(Wiley, 2018-12)Pattern recognition receptors (PRR) and nucleotide‐binding leucine‐rich repeat proteins (NLR) are major components of the plant immune system responsible for pathogen detection. To date, the transcriptional regulation of ... -
Protection efficacy of Argentinian isolates of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis with different genotypes and virulence in a murine model
(Elsevier, 2018-12)Paratuberculosis is a chronic disease caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (Map). The disease causes economic losses and, therefore, it is imperative to follow proper control strategies, which should include ... -
Secretome profile of Cellulomonas sp. B6 growing on lignocellulosic substrates
(Wiley; Society for Applied Microbiology, 2018-12)Aims: Lignocellulosic biomass deconstruction is a bottleneck for obtaining biofuels and value‐added products. Our main goal was to characterize the secretome of a novel isolate, Cellulomonas sp. B6, when grown on residual ... -
Baculovirus capsid display in vaccination schemes: effect of a previous immunity against the vector on the cytotoxic response to delivered antigens
(Springer, 2018-12)The baculovirus Autographa californica multiple nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcMNPV) infects lepidopteran invertebrates as natural hosts, although it also has been used as display vector for vaccine development. In this ... -
The autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus Ac12: A non-essential F box-like protein that interacts with cellular SKP1 component of the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex
(Elsevier, 2019-01)The Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) ac12 gene, which is conserved in ten other baculovirus, codes a predicted 217 amino acid protein of unknown function. In this study, we investigated the ... -
Identification of bovine tuberculosis biomarkers to detect tuberculin skin test and IFNγ release assay false negative cattle
(Elsevier, 2019-02)Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is an important animal and zoonotic disease, which causes severe economic losses. The main focus of this study was to assess the predictive power of previously identified biomarkers of bTB in ... -
Mal de Río Cuarto virus infection causes hormone imbalance and sugar accumulation in wheat leaves
(BMC, 2019-03)Background; Mal de Río Cuarto virus (MRCV) infects several monocotyledonous species including maize and wheat. Infected plants show shortened internodes, partial sterility, increased tillering and reduced root length. To ... -
An inhibitory mechanism of action of coiled‐coil peptides against type three secretion system from enteropathogenic Escherichia coli
(Wiley, 2019-03)Human pathogenic gram‐negative bacteria, such as enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC), rely on type III secretion systems (T3SS) to translocate virulence factors directly into host cells. The coiled‐coil domains present ... -
Tuberculosis vaccine candidates based on mycobacterial cell envelope components
(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). ... -
