Caracterização genético-populacional de Prochilodus nigricans (Prochilodontidae) na sub-bacia do rio Tapajós
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-07-03)
Prochilodus nigricans is a migratory detritivorous fish, with a silvery grey colored body and
dark, irregular, wavy, bar-like patterns on the caudal-fin lobes. This species is widely
distributed in the Amazon and Tocantins ...
Desenvolvimento e aplicação de ferramentas bioinformáticas para a biologia da conservação
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-02-26)
The analysis of demographic and genetic data is recommended for the success of conservation programs. The integration of this information to generate guidelines for establishing self-sustaining populations and retain the ...
Análise de genes e proteínas envolvidos no estado redox de reticulócitos e eritrócitos de pacientes beta talassêmicos ou com anemia falciforme
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-06-27)
Although not the primary etiology of diseases such as beta-thalassemia and sickle cell anemia, oxidative damage plays a crucial role in the aggravation of these diseases, contributing to the hemolysis and the short survival ...
Efeito modulador do extrato total do Paenibacillus polymyxa RNC-D em macrófagos e Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis in vitro
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-04-20)
Leishmaniasis is an infection caused by Leishmania gender protozoa. The treatment of the disease is generally problematic, as the drugs used on clinical practice are toxic. One of the paths in the search for new therapeutic ...
Fitocistatinas: caracterização bioquímica e aplicação na transformação genética de cana-de-açúcar
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-02-27)
Cystatins are tight-binding, competitive cysteine-peptidase inhibitors. In plants, these proteins are part of natural defense mechanism, regulating endogenous and exogenous peptidases. In humans, cystatins are responsible ...
Degradação de matéria orgânica terrestre por microrganismos do rio Amazonas – Metagenômica e genômica populacional
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-12-14)
Microbes from Amazon river basin represent an unexplored biodiversity, with a huge metabolic potential. This ecosystem receives large amounts of terrestrial organic matter (OM), which promotes heterotrophic microbial growth. ...
Estudos comparativos da interação de Hsp90 de diferentes organismos com nucleotídeos adenosina e caracterização da Aha4 de Plasmodium falciparum
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-07-31)
Hsp90 (heat shock protein of 90 kDa) are among the most abundant proteins in non-stressed cells. They interact with proteins that are not in the native state, correcting their incorrect folding, they participate in signal ...
Genética populacional de felinos e as ameaças para Puma concolor: estruturação populacional recente e atropelamentos
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-06-25)
Species around the world are increasingly exposed to new threats due to human activities. The main threat is the landscape modification by human activities, resulting in demographic and genetic pattern changes of species ...
Evolução e integração de fenótipos complexos em insetos: estudo de caso em Teleopsis Dalmanni (Diptera:Diopsidae) e em espécies de Anastrepha do grupo Fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae)
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-08-31)
Complex traits are affected by multiple traits and processes, whose interaction shape and determine their evolutionary patterns. This work uses quantitative evolutionary genetic methodologies to understand the evolutionary ...
Aspectos filogeográficos de Leporinus cf. friderici e da distribuição da diversidade genética em Leporinus cf. friderici Paraná e Megaleporinus obtusidens na bacia do Alto Paraná
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-10-05)
The megadiversity of the Neotropical ichthyofauna has been associated to recent diversification processes, reflecting in subtle or lacking morphological differentiation between species, challenging the classical taxonomic ...
