      In the early Drosophila melanogaster embryo, Dpp, a secreted molecule that belongs to the TGF-β superfamily of growth factors, activates a set of downstream genes to subdivide the dorsal region into amnioserosa and ...
    • Mandakovic Seyler, Dinka; Cabrera, Pablo; Pulgar Tejo, Rodrigo; Maldonado, Jonathan; Aravena, Pamela; Latorre Mora, Mauricio; Cambiazo Ayala, Liliana; González, Mauricio (Elsevier, 2015)
      Microbacterium sp. CGR1 (RGM2230) is an isolate from the Atacama Desert that displays a wide pH, salinity and temperature tolerance. This strain exhibits riboflavin overproducer features and traits for developing an ...
    • Mandakovic Seyler, Dinka; Pulgar Tejo, Rodrigo; Maldonado Soto, Jonathan; Mardones, Wladimir; González Canales, Mauricio; Cubillos, Francisco A.; Cambiazo Ayala, Liliana (MDPI, 2020)
      Autochthonous microorganisms are an important source of the distinctive metabolites that influence the chemical profile of wine. However, little is known about the diversity of fungal communities associated with grape ...
    • Pozo, Talía del; Cambiazo Ayala, Liliana; González Canales, Mauricio (ELSEVIER, 2010)
      As a result of copper essentiality for life, plants and most other organisms have developed a conserved and complex network of proteins to handling Cu in order to prevent its deficit and to avoid its potentially toxic ...
    • Hödar Quiroga, Christian; Moreno, Pablo; Genova, Alex di; Latorre, Mauricio; Reyes Jara, Angélica; Maass Sepúlveda, Alejandro; González Canales, Mauricio; Cambiazo Ayala, Liliana (Springer, 2012)
      Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans is a chemolithoautotrophic acidophilic bacterium that obtains its energy from the oxidation of ferrous iron, elemental sulfur, or reduced sulfur minerals. This capability makes it of great ...
    • Mandakovic, Dinka; Cintolesi, Ángela; Maldonado, Jonathan; Mendoza, Sebastián; Aite, Meziane; Gaete, Alexis; Saitua, Francisco; Allende, Miguel; Cambiazo Ayala, Liliana; Siegel, Anne; Maass Sepúlveda, Alejandro; González Canales, Mauricio; Latorre Mora, Mauricio (Nature, 2020)
      The Atacama Desert is the most arid desert on Earth, focus of important research activities related to microbial biodiversity studies. In this context, metabolic characterization of arid soil bacteria is crucial to understand ...
    • González Aguero, Mauricio; Zúñiga, Alejandro; Pottstock, Hans; Pozo, Talía del; González Canales, Mauricio; Cambiazo Ayala, Liliana (ELSEVIER, 2005-01-31)
      A subtractive hybridization approach was used to identify genes that are expressed at the beginning of gastrulation. We used tester DNA complimentary to RNA (cDNA) prepared from stages 6-7 embryos (gastrula) and excess ...
    • Aravena, Pamela; Pulgar Tejo, Rodrigo; Ortiz Severín, Javiera; Maza, Felipe; Gaete, Alexis; Martínez, Sebastián; Seron, Ervin; González Canales, Mauricio; Cambiazo Ayala, Liliana (MDPI, 2020)
      Piscirickettsia salmons, the causative agent of piscirickettsiosis, is genetically divided into two genomic groups, named after the reference strains as LF-89-like or EM-90-like. Phenotypic differences have been detected ...
    • Gutiérrez García, Ricardo; Pozo, Talía del; Suazo Romo, Miriam; Cambiazo Ayala, Liliana; González Canales, Mauricio (Springer, 2013)
      Copper is an essential micronutrient that functions as an enzymatic cofactor in a wide range of cellular processes. Although adequate Cu levels are essential for normal metabolism, excess Cu can be toxic to cells. ...
    • Mandakovic Seyler, Dinka; Rojas, Claudia; Maldonado, Jonathan; Latorre Mora, Mauricio; Travisany, Dante; Delage, Erwan; Bihouee, Audrey; Jean, Geraldine; Díaz, Francisca; Fernández Gómez, Beatriz; Cabrera, Pablo; Gaete, Alexis; Latorre, Claudio; Gutiérrez, Rodrigo A.; Maass Sepúlveda, Alejandro; Cambiazo Ayala, Liliana; Navarrete, Sergio A.; Eveillard, Damien; González Canales, Mauricio (Nature Publishing Group, 2018)
      Understanding the factors that modulate bacterial community assembly in natural soils is a longstanding challenge in microbial community ecology. In this work, we compared two microbial co-occurrence networks representing ...
