An experimental and modelling exploration of the host-sanction hypothesis in legume-rhizobia mutualism
(Elsevier, 2009)
Despite the importance of mutualism as a key ecological process, its persistence in nature is difficult to explain since the existence of exploitative, 'cheating' partners that could erode the interaction is common. By ...

Cysteine Proteases and Cell Differentiation: Excystment of the Ciliated Protist Sterkiella histriomuscorum
(American Society for Microbiology, 2003-12)
The process of excystment of Sterkiella histriomuscorum (Ciliophora, Oxytrichidae) leads in a few hours, through a massive influx of water and the resorption of the cyst wall, from an undifferentiated resting cyst to a ...

Securin Is a Target of the UV Response Pathway in Mammalian Cells
(2004)
All eukaryotic cells possess elaborate mechanisms to protect genome integrity and ensure survival after DNA damage, ceasing proliferation and granting time for DNA repair. Securin is an inhibitory protein that is bound to ...

Quality control for β-lactam susceptibility testing with a well-defined collection of Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains in Spain
(American Society for Microbiology, 2003)
Eighteen Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains, 16 of them with well-defined β-lactam re sistance mechanisms, were sent to 52 Spanish microbiology laboratories. Interpretative categories for 8 extended-spectrum ...

European multicenter study of the LIAISON automated diagnostic system for determination of Toxoplasma gondii-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgM and the IgG avidity index
(American Society for Microbiology, 2005)
The LIAISON system is a fully automated system based on chemiluminescence and antigen bound to magnetic microparticles. The system allows fast and precise measurement of Toxoplasma-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgM ...

Las proteínas Nop de Sinorhizobium fredii HH103: Regulación e implicación en la simbiosis con la soja (Glycine max [L.] Merrill)
(2008-04-18)
En los últimos años se ha demostrado que las proteínas secretadas a través del sistema de secreción de tipo III de Sinorhizobium fredii HH103 juegan un papel importante en el establecimiento de una simbiosis efectiva con ...
Article
Protein phosphatase 2A stabilizes human securin, whose phosphorylated forms are degraded via the SCF ubiquitin ligase
(2006)
Sister chromatid segregation is triggered at the metaphase-to-anaphase transition by the activation of the protease separase. For most of the cell cycle, separase activity is kept in check by its association with the ...

Regulation and symbiotic significance of nodulation outer proteins secretion in Sinorhizobium fredii HH103
(2008)
In this work we show that the Sinorhizobium fredii HH103 ttsI gene is essential for the expression of the tts genes and secretion of nodulation outer proteins (Nops). Moreover, we demonstrate for the first time, to our ...
PhD Thesis
Mecanismos de resistencia a Carbapenemas en cepas clínicas de Acinetobacter baumannii
(2001-04-25)
En los últimos años se ha producido un incremento significativo en el número de infecciones nosocomiales causadas por cepas de Acinetobacter baumannii resistentes a carbapenemas. Las opciones terapéuticas en el tratamiento ...
