New insights in the DNA-[Cr(phen)2(dppz)]3+ binding and photocleavage properties by the complex with an intercalating ligand
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2010-07)
Due to the key role of DNA in cell life and pathological processes, the design of specific chemical nucleases, fic chemical nucleases, DNA probes and alkylating agents is an important research area for the development of ...
Fructose derived oligosaccharides prevent lipid membrane destabilization and DNA conformational alterations during vacuum-drying of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus
(Elsevier Science, 2020-12)
Dehydration of lactic acid bacteria for technological purposes conducts to multilevel damage of bacterial cells. The goal of this work was to determine at which molecular level fructose-oligosaccharides (FOS) and sucrose ...
Bacterial DNA activates human neutrophils by a CpG‐independent pathway
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2003)
Functional and comparative characterization of Saccharomyces cerevisiae RVB1 and RVB2 genes with bacterial Ruv homologues
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2007-06)
Expression of yeast RuvB-like gene analogues of bacterial RuvB is self-regulated, as episomal overexpression of RVB1 and RVB2 decreases the expression of their chromosomal copies by 85%. Heterozygosity for either gene ...
ERIC-PCR technique applied to monitoring and quantification of DNA damage during water disinfection process
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2019-11)
In this work, we propose a novel application of ERIC-PCR technique to study DNA damage after ultraviolet radiation (UV) and peracetic acid (PAA) treatment for water disinfection purpose. The efficacy of both treatments on ...
Suppression of homologous and homeologous recombination by the bacterial MutS2 protein
(Cell Press, 2005-01)
In addition to their role in DNA repair, recombination events are associated with processes aimed at providing the genetic variability needed for adaptation and evolution of a population. In bacteria, recombination is ...
Determination of antibacterial activity of film coatings against four clinically relevant bacterial strains
(Bio-protocol, 2021-01)
Antibacterial coatings have currently gained great importance in biomedical technology investigations. Because of the spatial arrangement of the film coatings, evaluation of antibacterial activity presents a new challenge ...
Development of a quantitation approach for total human and male DNA based on real time PCR followed by high resolution melting analysis
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2016-10)
We developed and validated a total human DNA quantitation technique that simultaneously allows male DNA detection. This assay, called Amel-Y, is a duplex Real Time PCR followed by HRM (high resolution melting) analysis ...
Bacterial Imprinting of the Neonatal Immune System: Lessons From Maternal Cells?
(American Academy of Pediatrics, 2007-06)
OBJECTIVE. We examined the presence of a natural bacterial inoculum in breast milk and its intracellular transport from the maternal intestine to the breast through the circulation. METHODS. Breast milk and peripheral blood ...
Power analysis for real-time PCR quantification of genes in activated sludge and analysis of the variability introduced by DNA extraction
(American Society for Microbiology, 2003-11)
The aims of this study were to determine the power of discrimination of the real-time PCR assay for monitoring fluctuations in microbial populations within activated sludge and to identify sample processing points where ...
