Minería y vulnerabilidad de los territorios rurales en los Andes ecuatorianos: evidencias desde la provincia del Azuay

open access: yesCuadernos de Geografía: Revista Colombiana de Geografía, 2018
En los Andes ecuatorianos, la agricultura familiar se encuentra desde hace varias décadas en una situación de gran vulnerabilidad. A pesar de la reciente renovación del discurso político en Ecuador y del advenimiento de la era del “Buen Vivir”, el auge ...

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Short communication: Bifidobacterium abundance in the faecal microbiota is strongly associated with milk traits in dairy cattle

open access: yesAnimal
The performance of dairy cows is influenced by the microbial communities hosted within their digestive tract. While the rumen microbiota has long been associated with host phenotypes, the impact of the faecal microbiota remains elusive. In this study, we

A statistical approach to surface renewal: The virtual chamber concept

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences & Environment, 2021
In the stable conditions prevailing at night, concentrations of emitted gases (e.g., radon [Rn], carbon dioxide [CO2], methane [CH4], ammonia [NH3], and nitrous oxide [N2O]) build up at the surface, with intermittent interruptions due to the passage of ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Sequence-based genome-wide association study reveals host genomic regions and candidate genes influencing the fecal microbiota of Holstein cows

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science
: In recent decades, the digestive tract microbiota of livestock has been extensively studied, revealing associations with host phenotypes, including production- and health-related traits.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Lessons from analysing mortality from six major flood events in France(1930-2010)

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2016
Evolution of flood mortality is complex as several opposite factors come into play. On one side, flood risk has been aggravated due to an increase of the number of inhabitants within the area at risk, and to an increasing of simple-storey houses without ...

Permafrost nitrous oxide emissions observed on a landscape scale using the airborne eddy-covariance method [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2019
The microbial by-product nitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas and ozone depleting substance, has conventionally been assumed to have minimal emissions in permafrost regions. This assumption has been questioned by recent in situ studies which have

Diffusion to Capture and the Concept of Diffusive Interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Diffusion to capture is an ubiquitous phenomenon in many fields in biology and physical chemistry, with implications as diverse as ligand-receptor binding on eukaryotic and bacterial cells, nutrient uptake by colonies of unicellular organisms and the functioning of complex core-shell nanoreactors. Whenever many boundaries compete for the same diffusing
