      Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is known to be a multidrug resistant opportunistic pathogen. Particularly, P. aeruginosa PAO1 polyphosphate kinase mutant (ppk1) is deficient in motility, quorum sensing, biofilm formation ...
    • Gurney, Mark E.; Cogram, Patricia; Deacon, Robert M.; Rex, Christopher; Tranfaglia, Michael (Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
      Fragile-X syndrome (FXS) patients display intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder due to silencing of the X-linked, fragile-X mental retardation-1 (FMR1) gene. Dysregulation of cAMP metabolism is a consistent ...

      Aim Antarctica's remote and extreme terrestrial environments are inhabited by only two species of native vascular plants. We assessed genetic connectivity amongst Antarctic and South American populations of one of these ...
    • Alloway, B. V.; Pearce, N. J. G.; Villarosa, G.; Outes, V.; Moreno Moncada, Patricio (Nature, 2015)
      Within the volcanological community there is a growing awareness that many large-to smallscale, point-source eruptive events can be fed by multiple melt bodies rather than from a single magma reservoir. In this study, glass ...
    • Lukasik, Piotr; Nazario, Katherine; Van Leuven, James T.; Campbell, Matthew A.; Meyer, Mariah; Michalik, Anna; Pessacq, Pablo; Simon, Chris; Veloso Iriarte, Claudio; McCutcheon, John P. (National Academy of Sciences, 2018)
      Bacterial endosymbionts that provide nutrients to hosts often have genomes that are extremely stable in structure and gene content. In contrast, the genome of the endosymbiont Hodgkinia cicadicola has fractured into multiple ...
    • Amster, Pablo; Kuna, Mariel Paula; Robledo Veloso, Gonzalo (American Institute of Mathematical Sciences, 2019)
      Small non-autonomous perturbations around an equilibrium of a nonlinear delayed system are studied. Under appropriate assumptions, it is shown that the number of T-periodic solutions lying inside a bounded domain Ω ⊂ R N ...
    • González Olivares, Eduardo; González Yañez, Betsabé; Becerra-Klix, Ruth; Ramos Jiliberto, Rodrigo (Elsevier B.V., 2017)
