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 ... -
A transcriptional analysis of cattle immune cells reveals a central role of type 1 interferon in the In vitro innate immune response against Mycobacterium bovis
(MDPI, 2023-09)Bovine tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease primarily caused by Mycobacterium bovis, a bacterium that affects cattle and other mammals, including humans. Despite the availability of vast research about the immune ... -
A β-Hairpin Motif in the Envelope Protein E2 Mediates Receptor Binding of Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus
(MDPI, 2021-06)Pestivirus envelope protein E2 is crucial to virus infection and accomplishes virus-receptor interaction during entry. However, mapping of E2 residues mediating these interactions has remained unexplored. In this study, ... -
Achiote (Bixa orellana L.) : a natural source of pigment and vitamin E
(Springer, 2017-05)Commercialization of agricultural products, including seeds and its derived products, represents an important economic source for developing countries. Natural colorants obtained from the seeds of achiote plant (annatto) ... -
Acinetobacter baumannii and Its relationship to carbapenem resistance : a meta-analysis
(MDPI, 2022-05)Infections by antibiotic-resistant bacteria are a significant and complex global health issue. In this context, Acinetobacter baumannii is particularly important because of its ability to withstand treatments by β-lactams, ... -
AcMNPV Core Gene ac109 Is Required for Budded Virion Transport to the Nucleus and for Occlusion of Viral Progeny
(Plos One, 2012-09)The Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) ac109 core gene has been previously characterized as an essential late gene. Our results showed that budded virions could be detected in supernatants of ... -
Agroinoculation of a full-length cDNA clone of cotton leafroll dwarf virus (CLRDV) results in systemic infection in cotton and the model plant Nicotiana benthamiana
(2013-07)Cotton blue disease is the most important viral disease of cotton in the southern part of South America. Its etiological agent, cotton leafroll dwarf virus (CLRDV), is specifically transmitted to host plants by the aphid ... -
Aislamiento de Mycobacterium intracellulare a partir de un pulmón bovino comercializado en una carnicería de la zona oeste del conurbano bonaerense = Isolate of Mycobacterium intracellulare from a bovine lung marketed in a butcher shop from western of Greater Buenos Aires
(Facultad de Ciencias Veterinarias, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 2016)Se realizó un muestreo de 62 pulmones bovinos en una carnicería y un frigorífico de la zona oeste del conurbano bonaerense. De uno de ellos, adquirido en una carnicería, y sin lesiones visibles compatibles con tuberculosis, ... -
Allelic differences in a vacuolar invertase affect Arabidopsis growth at early plant development
(2016)Improving carbon fixation in order to enhance crop yield is a major goal in plant sciences. By quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping, it has been demonstrated that a vacuolar invertase (vac-Inv) plays a key role in ... -
An applied printing immunoassay with recombinant Nc-SAG1 for detection of antibodies to Neospora caninum in cattle
(Sage Publishing, 2011-08)Neospora caninum is a protozoan parasite that causes an important reproductive disease in cattle. Neospora caninum surface antigen 1 (Nc-SAG1) is an immunodominant candidate for the development of a diagnostic reagent for ... -
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 ... -
