Expression of the minor isoform pea ferredoxin in tobacco alters photosynthetic electron partitioning and enhances cyclic electron flow
(American Society Of Plant Biologist, 2013-02)
Ferredoxins (Fds) are ferrosulfoproteins that function as low-potential electron carriers in plants. The Fd family is composed of several isoforms that share high sequence homology but differ in functional characteristics. ...
Cell homeostasis in a Leishmania major mutant overexpressing the spliced leader RNA is maintained by an increased proteolytic activity
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2010)
Although several stage-specific genes have been identified in Leishmania, the molecular mechanisms governing developmental gene regulation in this organism are still not well understood. We have previously reported an ...
O sistema GO em Trypanosoma cruzi: caracterização dos genes TcOGG1 e TcMYH
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMG, 2013-12-16)
Trypanosoma cruzi is a protozoan parasite, causative of Chagas disease. Like most living organisms, it is susceptible to oxidative stress, and needs to adapt to distinct environments. Hence, DNA repair is essential for its ...
Arabidopsis thaliana HomeoBox 1 (AtHB1), a Homedomain-Leucine Zipper I (HD-Zip I) transcription factor, is regulated by PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTOR 1 to promote hypocotyl elongation
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2015-08)
Arabidopsis thaliana HomeoBox 1 (AtHB1) is a homeodomain-leucine zipper transcription factor described as a transcriptional activator with unknown function. Its role in A. thaliana development was investigated. AtHB1 ...
Transcriptome response signatures associated with the overexpression of a mitochondrial uncoupling protein (AtUCP1) in tobacco
(Public Library Science, 2015-06-24)
Mitochondrial inner membrane uncoupling proteins (UCP) dissipate the proton electrochemical gradient established by the respiratory chain, thus affecting the yield of ATP synthesis. UCP overexpression in plants has been ...
A novel Trypanosoma cruzi protein associated to the flagellar pocket of replicative stages and involved in parasite growth
(Public Library of Science, 2015-06)
The flagellar pocket constitutes an active and strategic site in the body of trypanosomatids (i.e. parasitic protozoa that cause important human and/or livestock diseases), which participates in several important processes ...
Key role of the motor protein Kinesin 13B in the activity of homeodomain-leucine zipper I transcription factors
(Oxford University Press, 2020-09)
The sunflower (Helianthus annuus) homeodomain-leucine zipper I transcription factor HaHB11 conferred differential phenotypic features when it was expressed in Arabidopsis, alfalfa, and maize plants. Such differences were ...
Clinical and therapeutic relevance of the metabolic oncogene fatty acid synthase in HER2+ breast cancer
(Universidad de Murcia, 2017-07)
Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a key lipogenic enzyme for de novo fatty acid biosynthesis and a druggable metabolic oncoprotein that is activated in most human cancers. We evaluated whether the HER2-driven lipogenic phenotype ...
