[eng] MECP2 is a multifunctional gene involved in multiple processes such as transcription regulation, chromatin remodelling, splicing and miRNA regulation. Malfunction of MECP2 due to loss of function mutations leads to ...
The translation of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies from the research field to the clinical setting and, specifically, the results obtained in terms of diagnostic yield remain far from expected. This situation ...
La sumoïlació és una modificació posttraduccional (PTM) que consisteix en la conjugació covalent i reversible d’una proteïna SUMO (Small ubiquitin-like modifier) al residu lisina d’una proteïna diana. Igual que la ubiquitina, ...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second-highest cause for cancer-related mortality worldwide. Patients suffering from CRC generally don’t die from primary tumours but rather from metastasis, for which there are no effective ...
La presente tesis titulada Técnicas moleculares para la caracterización microbiológica de los procesos de eliminación de nutrientes en las EDARs, se ha desarrollado desde dos puntos de vista, el primero fue la puesta a ...
Uno de los mecanismos genéticos que facilitan la innovación evolutiva es la formación de nuevos genes. De entre los procesos que permiten generar nuevos genes, la domesticación molecular de genes transposónicos es uno de ...
Evolutionary Biology offers a set of methods and theories to elucidate the evolutionary processes that lead to the diversification of life. With the development of sequencing technologies, the access to genetic data has ...
The main goal of the present thesis has been to shed light into the processes that shape the genetic diversity of organisms, focussing in the following factors: the type of reproduction, the morphological diversity of ...
La presente investigación explora la utilidad de los bacteriófagos y otros microorganismos indicadores de la contaminación fecal en relación a dos grandes tipos de sólidos relevantes en el ciclo del agua, los lodos de ...
The retina consists of several structured layers of highly specialized neurons that capture and process light stimuli enabling vision. Such a fine architecture turns retinal differentiation into an extremely complex event ...
