Galvéz, Gabriel; Ortega, Jaime; Fredericksen, Fernanda; Aliaga Tobar, Víctor; Parra Ortiz, Valentina María; Reyes Jara, Angélica Sofía; Pizarro Arcos, Lorena Andrea; Latorre, Mauricio (Frontiers Media, 2022)Copper mining tailings are characterized by high concentrations of heavy metals and an acidic pH, conditions that require an extreme adaptation for any organism. Currently, several bacterial species have been isolated and ...

Latorre, Mauricio; Olivares, Felipe; Reyes Jara, Angélica; López, Guadalupe; González Canales, Mauricio (Elsevier, 2011)Copper is a micronutrient that is required for proper metabolic functioning of most prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. To sustain an adequate supply of copper, a cell requires molecular mechanisms that control the ...

Galloway Peña, Jessica; Roh, Jung Hyeob; Latorre, Mauricio; Qin, Xiang; Murray, Barbara E. (PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2012-01-26)Recent studies have pointed to the existence of two subpopulations of Enterococcus faecium, one containing primarily commensal/community-associated (CA) strains and one that contains most clinical or hospital-associated ...

Latorre, Mauricio; Low, Marcela; Gárate, Esteban; Reyes Jara, Angélica; Murray, Bárbara E.; Cambiazo Ayala, Verónica; González, Mauricio (Royal Soc Chemistry, 2015)By integrating the microarray expression data and a global E. faecalis transcriptional network we identified a sub-network activated by zinc and copper. Our analyses indicated that the transcriptional response of the ...

Quiroz, Natalia; Rivas, Nicole; Pozo, Talía del; Burkhead, Jason; Suazo Romo, Miriam; González, Mauricio; Latorre, Mauricio (Springer, 2015)Copper is an essential micronutrient for organism health. Dietary changes or pathologies linked to this metal induce changes in intracellular glutathione concentrations. Here, we studied the transcriptional activation of ...
