    • Rivas Pardo, Jaime Andrés; Caniuguir, Andrés; Wilson, Christian A.M.; Babul Cattán, Jorge; Guixé Leguía, Victoria Cristina (Elsevier, 2011)
      The reaction catalyzed by E. coli Pfk-2 presents a dual-cation requirement. In addition to that chelated by the nucleotide substrate, an activating cation is required to obtain full activity of the enzyme. Only Mn2+ and ...
    • Báez, Mauricio; Wilson, Christian A.M.; Ramírez Sarmiento, César A.; Guixé Leguía, Victoria Cristina; Babul Cattán, Jorge (2012)
      Folding studies have been focused mainly on small, single-domain proteins or isolated single domains of larger proteins. However, most of the proteins present in biological systems are composed of multiple domains, and to ...
    • Baez, Mauricio; Wilson, Christian A.M.; Babul Cattán, Jorge (2011)
      Phosphofructokinase-2 is a 66 kD homodimer whose subunits are associated by means of a bimolecular domain, the β-clasp, which is linked to the larger portion of each subunit by a reentrant chain topology. To investigate ...
    • Casanova-Morales, Nathalie; Quiroga-Roger, Diego; Alfaro-Valdés, Hilda M.; Alavi, Zahra; Lagos-Espinoza, Miguel I.A.; Zocchi, Giovanni; Wilson, Christian A.M. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2018)
      © 2018 The Protein Society Immunoglobulin Binding Protein (BiP) is a chaperone and molecular motor belonging to the Hsp70 family, involved in the regulation of important biological processes such as synthesis, folding and ...
    • Paredes, Aaron J.; Naranjo-Palma, Tatiana; Alfaro-Valdés, Hilda M.; Barriga, Andrés; Babul Cattán, Jorge; Wilson, Christian A.M. (Academic Press Inc., 2017)
      © 2016 Elsevier Inc.DNA staining in gels has historically been carried out using silver staining and fluorescent dyes like ethidium bromide and SYBR Green I (SGI). Using fluorescent dyes allows recovery of the analyte, but ...
    • Ramírez Sarmiento, César A.; Báez, Mauricio; Wilson, Christian A.M.; Babul Cattán, Jorge; Komives, Elizabeth; Guixé Leguía, Victoria Cristina (2013)
      Phosphofructokinase-2 is a dimeric enzyme that undergoes cold denaturation following a highly cooperative N2 2I mechanism with dimer dissociation and formation of an expanded monomeric intermediate. Here, we use intrinsic ...
    • Burgos Bravo, Francesca; Figueroa, Nataniel L.; Casanova Morales, Nathalie; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Wilson, Christian A.M.; Leyton Campos, Lisette (American Society for Cell Biology, 2018)
      Thy-1 and αvβ3 integrin mediate bidirectional cell-to-cell communication between neurons and astrocytes. Thy-1/αvβ3 interactions stimulate astrocyte migration and the retraction of neuronal prolongations, both processes ...
