In this thesis we have covered the importance of finding underlying conservation events to better understand the regulatory mechanisms of important development orchestrators like the Hox cluster. As an example of these ...
The plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum is the causal agent of bacterial wilt, a highly aggressive disease responsible for important worldwide economic losses. Many virulence factors in R. solanacearum have been already ...
The regulation of the expression of virulence genes in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is an intensively studied feature of Salmonella lifestyle. How Salmonella integrates environmental signals to activate ...
Healthcare is changing, and the era of data-driven healthcare organisations is increasingly popular. Data-Driven approaches (e.g., Machine Learning, Metaheuristics, Modelling and Simulation, Data Analytics, and Data ...
The bloom of genomic data has revealed a vast amount of gene losses across all life kingdoms. However, the impact of gene loss on the evolution of the mechanisms of embryo development remains an important challenge. In ...
[cat] El virus de l'hepatitis A (HAV) s'allibera de cèl·lules infectades principalment embolcallat en membranes de la pròpia cèl·lula, formant partícules quasi embolcallades (eHAV). Es creu que la biogènesis d’eHAV podria ...
El control de la transmisión de patógenos víricos a través de la ruta fecal-oral ha adquirido recientemente relevancia e interés público. Para mantener este control, es necesario determinar indicadores apropiados para la ...
Las tecnologías de secuenciación de próxima generación (NGS) proporcionan datos potentes para investigar cuestiones biológicas y evolutivas fundamentales, como estudios relacionados con la genómica evolutiva de la adaptación ...
Encontramos una gran cantidad de información genómica en bases de datos para numerosos organismos pero existe un sesgo hacia ciertos grupos taxonómicos por el interés económico, social o sanitario. Los avances y el ...
Els mètodes electroquímics s’estan estudiant com a mètodes alternatius pel tractament de l’aigua amb la finalitat d’eliminar-ne els contaminants, tant els microbiològics com els químics, en qualsevol punt del cicle de ...
Besides classic enteric viruses such hepatitis A virus and norovirus, there are other viruses that can reach water sources without being part of their transmission route. Some of these pathogens are enveloped viruses, which ...
Esta tesis doctoral tuvo como objetivo principal identificar y cuantificar la presencia de bacterias patógenas, mediante el uso de indicadores de contaminación fecal y Legionella en aguas de riego aplicando métodos ...
[eng] Microscopy and Chromosome Conformation Capture (3C) are the two main techniques for studying the three-dimensional (3D) organization of the genome. Microscopy, allowing the visualization of genomic loci in individual ...
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are defined as transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides that lack protein-coding potential. Although multiple examples of functional lncRNAs have been described, particularly regulating gene ...
The application of NGS techniques to the study of mature B-cell neoplasms at the research level is providing a large amount of new information, in certain cases with clinical implications, which includes the identification ...
[eng] The idea of this research is to propose dimensionality reduction methods considering multi- groups in a dataset. In multivariate analysis, there are many multigroup methods, but they have different objectives than ...
During early development of bilaterian animals, specific body structures are formed and body axes are established. The establishment of body axes requires the precise and coordinated function of signalling pathways and ...
En els darrers anys l’augment poblacional així com els efectes d’un escalfament global estan minvant la capacitat i la qualitat dels recursos hídrics naturals disponibles. Els reptes als que ens enfrontem donen pas al ...
Els indicadors microbians de la contaminació fecal han estat útils al llarg dels anys pel control sanitari de la qualitat de l’aigua de consum. Tot i així, l’aigua mineral embotellada i l’aigua de la xarxa de distribució ...
The chloride channel ClCN2 is expressed in glia in the mature nervous system of vertebrates and some physiological functions have been proposed. In addition, human patients with mutations in the gene or dysfunction of the ...
