Xylella fastidiosa: An in vivo system to study possible survival strategies within citrus xylem vessels based on global gene expression analysis
(UNIV CATOLICA DE VALPARAISOVALPARAISO, 2012)
Xylella fastidiosa inhabits the plant xylem, a nutrient-poor environment, so that mechanisms to sense and respond to adverse environmental conditions are extremely important for bacterial survival in the plant host. Although ...
Generation and Biological Properties of a Recombinant Dodecahedron Containing the Short Fiber Protein of the Human Adenovirus 41
(KARGERBASEL, 2012)
Objective: In order to gain further insight into the function of the enteric adenovirus short fiber (SF), we have constructed a recombinant dodecahedron containing the SF protein of HAdV-41 and the HAdV-3 penton base. ...
Experimental Model of Arthritis Induced by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis in Rats
(SPRINGERDORDRECHT, 2012)
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), a disease caused by the fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis (Pb), is highly prevalent in Brazil, where it is the principal cause of death by systemic mycoses. The disease primarily affects ...
