We have developed new molecular tools to characterize the FHT and StRIK genes in the tuber periderm. Regarding FHT gene, our results demonstrated that is induced very specifically in suberizing tissues ...
The conservation of species relies on a deep knowledge of biology of the species concerned, as well as on the identification of reproductively isolated units, which are genetically different from one ...
Cytotoxic ribonucleases are promising agents to be used in the treatment of cancer. Our group previously described a cytotoxic human pancreatic ribonuclease variant, named PE5, which carries a nuclear ...
Chromosome abnormalities are one of the most important causes of congenital disorders. The main goal of this research is to give a broad view of the use and evolution of prenatal and postnatal cytogenetic ...
En aquesta tesi s'han estudiat les propietats antitumorals d'una variant de la ribonucleasa pancreàtica humana anomenada PE5 que incorpora un senyal de localització nuclear. Aquest estudi mostra que PE5 ...
El disseny i la producció de zimògens de ribonucleases que puguin ser específicament activats per la proteasa d’un patogen, constitueix un enginyós mecanisme per controlar la seva activitat enzimàtica ...
Nowadays, the combination of the autotrophic nitrification together with heterotrophic denitrification is the most common process for N-removal in the WWTPs. However, when the C:N ratio is low, this ...
This thesis is about challenges that currently concern in vitro production (IVP), sex determination procedures and sex-related survival of in vitro-produced porcine embryos. Specifically, the current ...
Colorectal Cancer is the main type of cancer in Spain. Up to 90% of the cases are sporadic in nature and its aetiology is still unclear. It is supposed to be a multi-factorial disease, where factors ...
The main aim of the present study is to characterize the biological and biophysical properties of Apoptin, a viral protein that selectively induces apoptosis of a wide range of tumor cells. Apoptin has ...
