Cytorhabdovirus P3 genes encode 30K-like cell-to-cell movement proteins
(2016)
Plant viruses encode movement proteins (MP) to facilitate cell-to-cell transport through plasmodesmata. In this study, using trans-complementation of a movement-defective turnip vein-clearing tobamovirus (TVCV) replicon, ...
Fusion of foreign T-cell epitopes and addition of TLR agonists enhance immunity against Neospora caninum profilin in cattle
(2016)
We demonstrated recently that immunization with recombinant Neospora caninum profilin (rNcPRO) induces limited protection and a regulatory T-cell
response in mice.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the immune response ...
Effect of the addition of phytosterols and tocopherols on Streptococcus thermophilus robustness during industrial manufacture and ripening of a functional cheese as evaluated by qPCR and RT-qPCR
(2016-09)
The quality of functional food products designed for the prevention of degenerative diseases can be affected by the incorporation of bioactive compounds. In many types of cheese, the performance of starter microorganisms ...
Assessment of the potential utility of different regions of Streptococcus uberis adhesion molecule (SUAM) for mastitis subunit vaccine development
(2017-04)
Streptococcus uberis is one of the most prevalent pathogens causing clinical and subclinical mastitis
worldwide. Among bacterial factors involved in intramammary infections caused by this organism,
S. uberis adhesion ...
The repertoire of serine rhomboid proteases of piroplasmids of importance to animal and human health
(Elsevier, 2021-05)
Babesia, Theileria and Cytauxzoon are tick-borne apicomplexan protozoans of the order Piroplasmida, notorious for the diseases they cause in livestock, pets and humans. Host cell invasion is their Achilles heel, allowing ...
Expanding the size limit of RNA viruses: Evidence of a novel divergent nidovirus in California sea hare, with a ~35.9 kb virus genome
(BioRxiv, 2018-04-24)
While RNA viruses thrive with massive structural and functional diversity, their genomes size variation is particularly low, ranging only from ~2-to-33 kb. Here, I present the characterization of RNA sequences corresponding ...
High-power ultrasound pretreatment for efficient extraction of fractions enriched in pectins and antioxidants from discarded carrots (Daucus carota L.)
(Elsevier, 2019-03)
A useful pectin-enriched fraction (PEF) extracted through high-power-ultrasound (HPUS) pretreatment and sodium carbonate was efficiently obtained from discarded carrots. Formerly, the effect of HPUS-power intensity and ...
Airway remodelling in children: when does it start?
(Wolters Kluwer Health, 2007)
