alpha 2-COP is involved in early secretory traffic in Arabidopsis and is required for plant growth
2017
[EN] COP (coat protein) I-coated vesicles mediate intra-Golgi transport and retrograde transport from the Golgi to the endoplasmic reticulum. These vesicles form through the action of the small GTPase ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) and the COPI heptameric protein complex (coatomer), which consists of seven subunits (alpha-, beta-, beta' -, gamma-, delta-, epsilon- and xi-COP). In contrast to mammals and yeast, several isoforms for coatomer subunits, with the exception of gamma and delta, have been identified in Arabidopsis. To understand the role of COPI proteins in plant biology, we have identified and characterized a loss-of-function mutant of alpha 2-COP, an Arabidopsis alpha-COP isofo…
¿Atenuación del compromiso del hablante?: el caso de los evidenciales "por lo visto" y "se ve que"
2018
espanolBuena parte de la bibliografia sobre marcadores evidenciales en espanol senala la atenuacion del compromiso (o responsabilidad) de lo dicho como uno de sus rasgos definitorios. Sin embargo, tanto la nocion de atenuacion como la de compromiso del hablante se han empleado con distintas acepciones, segun los trabajos. En primer lugar, se revisan estas acepciones y se propone, siguiendo a Cornillie/Delbecque, distinguir las nociones compromiso del hablante de implicacion del hablante, las cuales funcionan de manera inversa en algunos usos evidenciales: (i) de las evidencias reportativas a las inferenciales conjeturales hay una escala de menos a mas implicacion del hablante; (ii) en las e…
Photochemical mineralization of terrigenous DOC to dissolved inorganic carbon in ocean
2018
When terrigenous dissolved organic carbon (tDOC) rich in chromophoric dissolved organic matter (tCDOM) enters the ocean, solar radiation mineralizes it partially into dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). This study addresses the amount and the rates of DIC photoproduction from tDOC and the area of ocean required to photomineralize tDOC. We collected water samples from 10 major rivers, mixed them with artificial seawater, and irradiated them with simulated solar radiation to measure DIC photoproduction and the photobleaching of tCDOM. The linear relationship between DIC photoproduction and tCDOM photobleaching was used to estimate the amount of photoproduced DIC from the tCDOM fluxes of the stu…
The concept of genus within the family Phytoseiidae (Acari: Parasitiformes): historical review and phylogenetic analyses of the genus Neoseiulus Hugh…
2012
Systematic studies on the family Phytoseiidae were first conducted at the beginning of the 20th century but increased greatly after the Second World War. Various classifications have been proposed based on different characters such as: dorsal, ventral, and leg chaetotaxy; the shape of ventrianal and sternal shields; the shape of the insemination apparatus (spermatheca) and spermatodactylus; the number of teeth on the movable digit of chelicera; and dorsal and ventral adenotaxy. The genus concepts developed over the last five decades can be divided into two main categories or hypotheses. The first, supported mainly by Chant and McMurtry, focuses on dorsal and ventral chaetotaxy, and the gene…

Non-invasive Geophysical Surveys in Search of the Roman Temple of Augustus Under the Cathedral of Tarragona (Catalonia, Spain): A Case Study
2018
An integrated geophysical survey has been conducted at the Tarragona’s Cathedral (Catalonia, NE Spain) with the aim to confirm the potential occurrence of archaeological remains of the Roman Temple dedicated to the Emperor Augustus. Many hypotheses have been proposed about its possible location, the last ones regarding the inner part of the Cathedral, which is one of the most renowned temples of Spain (twelfth century) evolving from Romanesque to Gothic styles. A geophysical project including electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and ground probing radar (GPR) was planned over 1 year considering the administrative and logistic difficulties of such a project inside a cathedral of religious…
The Vibrio choleare haemolysin anion channel is required for cell vacuolation and death
2002
SummarySeveral strains of Vibrio cholerae secrete ahaemolytic toxin of 63kDa, termed V. cholerae cytolysin (VCC). This toxin causes extensive vacuo-lation and death of cells in culture and forms ananion-selective channel in planar lipid bilayers and incells. Here, we identify inhibitors of the VCC anionchannel and show that the formation of the anionchannel is necessary for the development of the vacuoles and for the cell death induced by this toxin. Using markers of cell organelles, we show that vacuoles derive from different intracellular com-partments and we identify the contribution of lateendosomes and of the trans -Golgi network in vacuolebiogenesis.Introduction The Gram-negative bact…
Las familias reconstituidas. Una realidad en continuo crecimiento
2020
Cada vez más parejas que han contraído matrimonio o formalizado su unión se disuelven y vuelven a formar otras familias, las llamadas familias reconstituidas. En ellas se involucran adultos y menores, por lo que necesitan una identidad propia que determine los derechos y obligaciones de cada uno. Aunque nada se ha previsto en el Código civil español, no acontece igual en otros Derechos, como en algunos de los llamados Derechos forales y en los ordenamientos jurídicos de otros países. Partiendo de ello, en este artículo vamos a realizar algunas consideraciones en torno a lo que podría ser su régimen jurídico. More and more couples who have married or formalized their union are dissolving and…
Sicilian Populations of Capparis spinosa L. and Capparis orientalis Duhamel as Source of the Bioactive Flavonol Quercetin
2023
The genus Capparis is a taxon of difficult delimitation that has several species and ecotypes due to its wide heterogeneity, its extreme phenotypic diversity, and the presence of intermediate forms linked to hybridization phenomena. The Sicilian territory hosts numerous wild and cultivated populations of two spp. Capparis spinosa L. and Capparis orientalis Duhamel, which are ecologically and morphologically distinct. The caper has considerable interest and economic value for its medicinal properties, culinary uses, and cultivation characteristics. It is one of the foods with the highest quercetin content. Quercetin is a flavonol with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunostimulant prope…
Polyoxypregnanes as safe, potent, and specific ABCB1-inhibitory pro-drugs to overcome multidrug resistance in cancer chemotherapy in vitro and in vivo
2021
Multidrug resistance (MDR) mediated by ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) is significantly hindering effective cancer chemotherapy. However, currently, no ABCB1-inhibitory drugs have been approved to treat MDR cancer clinically, mainly due to the inhibitor specificity, toxicity, and drug interactions. Here, we reported that three polyoxypregnanes (POPs) as the most abundant constituents of Marsdenia tenacissima (M. tenacissima) were novel ABCB1-modulatory pro-drugs, which underwent intestinal microbiota-mediated biotransformation in vivo to generate active metabolites. The metabolites at non-toxic concentrations restored chemosensitivity in ABCB1-overexpressing cancer cells v…
