    • The DNA-Binding Protein HU has a Regulatory Role in the Acid Stress Response Mechanism in Helicobacter pylori 
      Almarza, Oscar; Núñez, Daniel; Toledo Araya, Héctor (Wiley-Blackwell, 2015)
      Background: Bacterial genomes are compacted by association with histonelike proteins to form a complex known as bacterial chromatin. The histonelike protein HU is capable of binding and bending the DNA molecule, a function ...
    • Energy and protein delivery in overweight and obese children in the pediatric intensive care unit 
      Martínez, Enid E.; Ariagno, Katelyn A.; Stenquist, Nicole; Anderson, Daniela; Muñoz Benavides, Eliana; Mehta, Nilesh M. (Sage, 2017-06)
      Background: Early and optimal energy and protein delivery have been associated with improved clinical outcomes in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Overweight and obese children in the PICU may be at risk for ...
    • Epitranscriptomic regulation of HIV-1 full-length RNA packaging 
      Pereira Montecinos, Camila; Toro Ascuy, Daniela; Ananías Sáez, Catarina; Gaete Argel, Aracelly; Rojas Fuentes, Cecilia; Riquelme Barrios, Sebastián; Rojas Araya, Bárbara; García de Gracia, Francisco; Aguilera Cortés, Paulina; Chnaiderman Figueroa, Jonas; Acevedo Acevedo, Mónica; Valiente Echeverría, Fernando; Soto Rifo, Ricardo (Oxford University Press, 2022)
      During retroviral replication, the full-length RNA serves both as mRNA and genomic RNA. However, the mechanisms by which the HIV-1 Gag protein selects the two RNA molecules that will be packaged into nascent virions remain ...
