The avocado genome informs deep angiosperm phylogeny, highlights introgressive hybridization, and reveals pathogen-influenced gene space adaptation
The avocado, Persea americana, is a fruit crop of immense importance to Mexican agriculture with an increasing demand worldwide. Avocado lies in the anciently diverged magnoliid clade of angiosperms, which has a controversial ...
Ets una persona sociable? Dona'n les gràcies als bacteris intestinals
En els animals, les interaccions socials són imprescindibles per regular comportaments bàsics com l'aparellament, l'alimentació i la defensa. Per això el cervell controla molts aspectes d'aquestes interaccions. Tanmateix, ...
Cytoskeletal players in single-cell branching morphogenesis
Branching networks are a very common feature of multicellular animals and underlie the formation and function of numerous organs including the nervous system, the respiratory system, the vasculature and many internal glands. ...
Assessment of dead-end ultrafiltration for the detection and quantification of microbial indicators and pathogens in the drinking water treatment processes
A safe water supply requires distinct treatments and monitoring to guarantee the absence of pathogens and substances potentially hazardous for human health. In this study we assessed the efficiency of the dead-end ...
Short- and long-term changes in chromosomal inversion polymorphism and global warming: Drosophila subobscura from the Balkans
The chromosomal inversion polymorphism of Drosophila subobscura is adaptive to environmental changes. The population of Petnica, Serbia, was chosen to analyze short- and long-term changes in this polymorphism. Short-term ...
Broken colinearity of the amphioxus Hox cluster.
Background In most eumetazoans studied so far, Hox genes determine the identity of structures along the main body axis. They are usually linked in genomic clusters and, in the case of the vertebrate embryo, are expressed ...
The lipopolysaccharide of Aeromonas spp: structure-activity relationships
Marine microorganisms, including Aeromonas, are a source of compds. for drug development that have generated great expectations in the last decades. Aeromonas infections produce septicemia, and ulcerative and haemorrhagic ...
Maintenance of A/P body regions in planarians by TCEN49, a putative cystine-knot neurotrophin.
In freshwater planarians, the protein TCEN49 has been linked to the regional specification of the central body region, which includes the pharynx.
An equivalence test between features lists, based on the Sorensen-Dice index and the joint frequencies of GO term enrichment
Background: In integrative bioinformatic analyses, it is of great interest to stablish the equivalence between gene or (more in general) feature lists, up to a given level and in terms of their annotations in the Gene ...
Nova plataforma per aconseguir nous antibiòtics
Un dels problemes més greus dels antibiòtics és que molts microorganismes infecciosos hi són cada cop més resistents. Per això, la recerca de nous productes amb propietats antimicrobianes és una prioritat. Segons ha publicat ...
A Common 56-kilobase deletion in a primate-specific segmental duplication creates a novel Butyrophilin-Like protein
Background The Butyrophilin-like (BTNL) proteins are likely to play an important role in inflammation and immune response. Like the B7 protein family, many human and murine BTNL members have been shown to control T lymphocytes ...
La falta de son provoca confesions falses
Un dels objectius dels interrogatoris que es fan als sospitosos d'haver comès algun tipus de delicte és, a més d'aclarir els diferents aspectes que l'envolten, aconseguir una confessió, que podrà ser utilitzada com a prova. ...
RPGeNet v2 .0: expanding the universe of retinal disease gene interactions network
RPGeNet offers researchers a user-friendly queriable tool to visualize the interactome network of visual disorder genes, thus enabling the identification of new potential causative genes and the assignment of novel candidates ...
Active and passive MDMA ('ecstasy') intake induces differential transcriptional changes in the mouse brain
3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, ‘ecstasy’) is a recreational drug widely used by adolescents and young adults. Although its rewarding effects are well established, there is controversy on its addictive potential. ...
Pathogenicity and virulence of Hepatitis A virus.
Hepatitis A is an acute infection of the liver, which is mostly asymptomatic in children and increases the severity with age. Although in most patients the infection resolves completely, in a few of them it may follow a ...

Una planta del Pirineu amaga el secret de la llarga vida
Els científics estudien una espècie vegetal que arriba a viure fins a 350 anys i que no mor a causa de l'envelliment, sinó per infeccions o condicions climàtiques adverses
Sex Reversal in Zebrafish fancl Mutants is Caused by Tp53-Mediated Germ Cell Apoptosis
The molecular genetic mechanisms of sex determination are not known for most vertebrates, including zebrafish. We identified a mutation in the zebrafish fancl gene that causes homozygous mutants to develop as fertile males ...
Samarretes fluorescents i productores d'electricitat
Quan anem a comprar una samarreta, una camisa, una brusa, un vestit, uns pantalons o un abric, mirem que sigui de la nostra talla i que el color i el disseny siguin del nostre gust. També ens fixem en el tipus de teixit ...
Metàfores incertes
Les metàfores formen part de la idiosincràsia humana. Estimulen el nostre pensament perquè ens obliguen a establir relacions inesperades entre el significat literal i les idees imaginades. La poesia possiblement és una de ...
