    • Wilson, Carlos; Muñoz Palma, Ernesto; Henríquez, Daniel R.; Palmisano, Ilaria; Núñez González, Marco; Di Giovanni, Simone; González Billault, Christian (Soc Neuroscience, 2016)
      Physiological levels of ROS support neurite outgrowth and axonal specification, but the mechanisms by which ROS are able to shape neurons remain unknown. Ca2+, a broad intracellular second messenger, promotes both Rac1 ...
    • Utreras Puratich, Elías; Henríquez, Daniel R.; Contreras Vallejos, Erick; Olmos, Cristina; Di Genova, Alex; Maass Sepúlveda, Alejandro; Kulkarni, Ashok B.; González Billault, Christian (2013)
      Rap1 signaling is important for migration, differentiation, axonal growth, and during neuronal polarity. Rap1 can be activated by external stimuli, which in turn regulates specific guanine nucleotide exchange factors such ...
    • Henríquez, Daniel R.; Zhao, Caifeng; Zheng, Haiyan; Arbildua, José J.; Acevedo Acevedo, Mónica; Roth, Monica J.; León Decap, Oscar (2013)
      Background: Retroviral integrases (INs) catalyze the integration of viral DNA in the chromosomal DNA of the infected cell. This reaction requires the multimerization of IN to coordinate a nucleophilic attack of the 3’ ...
    • Muñoz Llancao, Pablo; Henríquez, Daniel R.; Wilson, Carlos; Bodaleo, Felipe; Boddeke, Erik W.; Lezoualc'h, Frank; Schmidt, Martina; González Billault, Christian (Soc. Neuroscience, 2015)
      Acquisition of neuronal polarity is a complex process involving cellular and molecular events. The second messenger cAMP is involved in axonal specification through activation of protein kinase A. However, an alternative ...
    • González Billault, Christian; Muñoz Llancao, Pablo; Henríquez, Daniel R.; Wojnacki, José; Conde, Cecilia; Cáceres, Alfredo (2012)
      The highly dynamic remodeling and cross talk of the microtubule and actin cytoskeleton support neuronal morphogenesis. Small RhoGTPases family members have emerged as crucial regulators of cytoskeletal dynamics. In this ...
