Preparation and reactions of palladium(II) complexes with C2-bonded heteroaromatic ligands trans[PdCl(RN)(PPh3)2] (RN = 2-pyridyl, 2-pirazyl, 2-pyrim…
1986
Abstract The complexes trans -[PdCl(R N )(PPh 3 ) 2 ] (I) [R N = 2-pyridyl (2-Py), 2-pyrazyl (2-pyz), 2-pyrimidyl (2-pym) group] have been prepared in high yield by deprotonation with NEt 3 of the corresponding cationic compounds trans [PdCl(R N H) (PPh 3 ) 2 ] + (R N H = N -protonated C 2 -heteroaromatic ligand) in the presence of an excess of PPh 3 . In chlorinated solvents, complexes I undergo a slow reversible dimerization into the binuclear derivatives [PdCl(μ-R N )(PPh 3 )] 2 (II) (μ-R N = C 2 , N 1 -bridging ligand). From the 31 P NMR spectra in 1,2-dichloroethane the following dissociation constants were obtained: 1.9 mol 1 −1 (R N = 2-py), 5.1 × 10 −2 (2-pym), 6.6 × 10 −3 (2-pyz). …

Mitochondrial DNA sequences are present inside nuclear DNA in rat tissues and increase with age
2009
Abstract Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations increase with age. However, the number of cells with predominantly mutated mtDNA is small in old animals. Here a new hypothesis is proposed: mtDNA fragments may insert into nuclear DNA contributing to aging and related diseases by alterations in the nucleus. Real-time PCR quantification shows that sequences of cytochrome oxidase III and 16S rRNA from mtDNA are present in highly purified nuclei from liver and brain in young and old rats. The sequences of these insertions revealed that they contain single nucleotide polymorphisms identical to those present in mtDNA of the same animal. Interestingly, the amount of mitochondrial sequences in nuclear …
Yeast vectors for the integration/expression of any sequence at theTYR1 locus
2007
We have constructed new yeast vectors for targeted integration and conditional expression of any sequence at the Saccharomyces cerevisiae TYR1 locus which becomes disrupted. We show that vector integration is not neutral, causing prototrophy for tyrosine and auxotrophy for the vector's selectable marker (uracil or leucine, depending on the vector used). This feature allows a double screening of transformed yeast cells, improving the identification of colonies with the desired chromosomal structure. The GAL10 gene promoter has been added to drive conditional expression of cloned sequences. Using these vectors, chromosomal structure verification of recombinant clones is no longer necessary, s…
Neutral pH and low–glucose degradation product dialysis fluids induce major early alterations of the peritoneal membrane in children on peritoneal di…
2018
WOS: 000439138700024 PubMed ID: 29776755 The effect of peritoneal dialysates with low-glucose degradation products on peritoneal membrane morphology is largely unknown, with functional relevancy predominantly derived from experimental studies. To investigate this, we performed automated quantitative histomorphometry and molecular analyses on 256 standardized peritoneal and 172 omental specimens from 56 children with normal renal function, 90 children with end-stage kidney disease at time of catheter insertion, and 82 children undergoing peritoneal dialysis using dialysates with low-glucose degradation products. Follow-up biopsies were obtained from 24 children after a median peritoneal dial…

Background of INCASI Project H2020-MSCA-RISE-2015 GA 691004. WP1: Compilation Este artículo tiene dos objetivos. En primer lugar, queremos analizar si el peso del origen social de los graduados universitarios influye en la inserción laboral, tomando como indicador los ingresos que obtienen los titulados que trabajan, cuando controlamos la titulación obtenida. En segundo lugar, intentamos observar si los graduados universitarios provenientes de orígenes sociales más desfavorecidos se encuentran más desocupados y más inactivos que los provenientes de hogares con más recursos. Para tal fin analizamos a los titulados que egresaron de universidades públicas catalanas en el curso 2006-2007, entre…
NADH dehydrogenase deficiency results in low respiration rate and improved aerobic growth of Zymomonas mobilis.
2008
The respiratory chain of the ethanol-producing bacterium Zymomonas mobilis is able to oxidize both species of nicotinamide cofactors, NADH and NADPH. A mutant strain with a chloramphenicol-resistance determinant inserted in ndh (encoding an NADH : CoQ oxidoreductase of type II) lacked the membrane NADH and NADPH oxidase activities, while its respiratory d-lactate oxidase activity was increased. Cells of the mutant strain showed a very low respiration rate with glucose and no respiration with ethanol. The aerobic growth rate of the mutant was elevated; exponential growth persisted longer, resulting in higher biomass densities. For the parent strain a similar effect of aerobic growth stimulat…
Massive presence of insertion sequences in the genome of SOPE, the primary endosymbiont of the rice weevil Sitophilus oryzae
2008
Bacteria that establish an obligate intracellular relationship with eukaryotic hosts undergo an evolutionary genomic reductive process. Recent studies have shown an increase in the number of mobile elements in the first stage of the adaptive process towards intracellular life, although these elements are absent in ancient endosymbionts. Here, the genome of SOPE, the obligate mutualistic endosymbiont of rice weevils, was used as a model to analyze the initial events that occur after symbiotic integration. During the first phases of the SOPE genome project, four different types of insertion sequence (IS) elements, belonging to well-characterized IS families from alpha-proteobacteria, were ide…
The C-terminal Domains of Apoptotic BH3-only Proteins Mediate Their Insertion into Distinct Biological Membranes
2016
Changes in the equilibrium of pro- and anti-apoptotic members of the B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) protein family in the mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM) induce structural changes that commit cells to apoptosis. Bcl-2 homology-3 (BH3)-only proteins participate in this process by either activating pro-apoptotic effectors or inhibiting anti-apoptotic components and by promoting MOM permeabilization. The association of BH3-only proteins with MOMs is necessary for the activation and amplification of death signals; however, the nature of this association remains controversial, as these proteins lack a canonical transmembrane sequence. Here we used an in vitro expression system to study the inserti…
The Third Competition for Ernesto Basile’s Palace of Justice. Analysis, Conjectural Reconstruction and Photo Insertions
2022
The competition for the Palazzo di Giustizia in Rome takes place in four phases that develop between 1884 and 1887. The project of the third competition (1886-1887), drawn up by Ernesto Basile (Palermo 1857-1932), reveals a great maturity design that transforms the complex functional program into a rigorous neo-Renaissance style building. The jury recognizes the quality of the project and selects it for the final phase by invitation (1887) together with that one of Guglielmo Calderini, who will be the winner. The original drawings of the unrealized work are kept at the Basile Endowment of the Department of Architecture of the University of Palermo: among them there are sketches, preparatory…
