Ecología química y perspectivas de su aplicación en la conservación de la biodiversidad [PDF]
, 2013 Chemical ecology comprises the study of interactions of organisms with their environment that are mediated by the chemicals they produced. In general, chemicals that mediate interactions between organisms are called semiochemicals.

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...

New Synthesis—Systems Chemical Ecology [PDF]
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2011 Secondary metabolites are enigmatic in terms of costs and benefits for their producers and how their ontogenetic accumulation or timely induction affects the evolution of single species and co-evolution of interacting species. More than 50 years ago, Gottfried Fraenkel dispelled the notion of secondary metabolites as waste products: “Thus, the animal ...

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Air pollution has been linked to several neurological conditions, including stroke and neurodegenerative diseases. Evidence regarding its association with multiple sclerosis (MS) remains conflicting, limited by small sample sizes. Methods PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane controlled register of trials (CENTRAL) were searched on ...

Dimerisation of the Drosophila odorant co-receptor Orco
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014 Odorant receptors (ORs) detect volatile molecules and transform this external information into an intracellular signal. Insect ORs are heteromers composed of two seven transmembrane proteins, an odor-specific OrX and a coreceptor (Orco) protein.
