A beginner’s guide for FMDV quasispecies analysis: sub-consensus variant detection and haplotype reconstruction using next-generation sequencing
(Oxford Academic Press, 2020-09)Deep sequencing of viral genomes is a powerful tool to study RNA virus complexity. However, the analysis of next-generation sequencing data might be challenging for researchers who have never approached the study of viral ... -
Optimisation of xylanases production by two Cellulomonas strains and their use for biomass deconstruction
(Springer, 2021-05)One of the main distinguishing features of bacteria belonging to the Cellulomonas genus is their ability to secrete multiple polysaccharide degrading enzymes. However, their application in biomass deconstruction still ... -
MVAΔ008 viral vector encoding the model protein OVA induces improved immune response against the heterologous antigen and equal levels of protection in a mice tumor model than the conventional MVA
(Elsevier, 2021-11)Modified vaccinia Ankara virus (MVA) is extensively used as a vaccine vector. We have previously observed that MVAΔ008, an MVA lacking the gene that codes for interleukin-18 binding protein, significantly increases CD8+ ... -
RdDM pathway components differentially modulate Tobamovirus symptom development
(Springer, 2020-08)Small RNAs (sRNAs) are important molecules for gene regulation in plants and play an essential role in plant-pathogen interactions. Researchers have evaluated the relationship between viral infections as well as the ... -
Rapid and cost-effective process based on insect larvae for scale-up production of SARS-COV-2 spike protein for serological COVID-19 testing
(Wiley, 2021-10)Serology testing for COVID-19 is important in evaluating active immune response against SARS-CoV-2, studying the antibody kinetics, and monitoring reinfections with genetic variants and new virus strains, in particular, ... -
Functional characterization and intracellular localization of a Lotus tenuis NHX antiporter
(Springer, 2021-05)Lotus tenuis is a perennial forage legume widely scattered in the flooding Pampa region of Argentina. Even when it is considered a salt-tolerant species, the molecular basis underlying this trait still remains unknown. ... -
Bioprospecting of microbial strains for biofuel production: metabolic engineering, applications, and challenges
(BMC, 2021-01)The issues of global warming, coupled with fossil fuel depletion, have undoubtedly led to renewed interest in other sources of commercial fuels. The search for renewable fuels has motivated research into the biological ... -
Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) molecular diversity in cattle, sheep, and goats from Latin America and the Caribbean: a systematic review
(Springer, 2021-09)This study aimed to systematically collect and appraise the scientific evidence to answer the research question: What MAP genotypes have been isolated from cattle, sheep, and goats in Latin America and the Caribbean? An ... -
Diversity structure of the microbial communities in the guts of four neotropical termite species
(Peer J Inc., 2021-04)The termite gut microbiome is dominated by lignocellulose degrading microorganisms. This study describes the intestinal microbiota of four Argentinian higher termite species with different feeding habits: Microcerotermes ... -
The role of glucose in the pathology of EHEC O157: H7
(Cambridge University Press, 2020-04)The pathogen enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157: H7 is responsible for hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome in humans [1]. During the colonization process in the gastrointestinal tract, EHEC needs ... -
Campylobacter fetus releases S-layered and immunoreactive outer membrane vesicles = Campylobacter fetus secreta vesículas de membrana externa inmunorreactivas que conservan la capa S
(Elsevier, 2021-08)The study of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) became relevant because of their probable important role in the transfer of virulence factors to host cells. Campylobacter fetus is mainly a mammal pathogen whose virulence ... -
The cytosolic invertase NI6 affects vegetative growth, flowering, fruit set, and yield in tomato
