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 ...
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 ...
Estudos fisiológicos, nutricionais e moleculares de variedades de cana-de-açúcar (Saccharum spp.) sob estresse por alumínio
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-09-21)
Sugarcane is a crop of global importance and has been expanding to areas with soils containing high levels of exchangeable aluminum (Al), which is a limiting factor for crop development in acidic soils. The study of the ...
Estudo de vias alternativas aos sistemas LiaFSR e YycFGHIJ que levam à diminuição da sensibilidade à daptomicina em Enterococcus faecium
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-08-21)
Enterococcus is one of the most important multi-drug resistant nosocomial pathogens. Infections caused by vancomycin resistant Enterococci (VRE) are becoming increasingly difficult to treat, often with prolonged hospital ...
Cistatinas recombinantes de cana-de-açúcar : especificidade, produção em biorreator e conservação por liofilização
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-03-02)
Phytocystatins are inhibitors of cysteine peptidases found naturally in plants.
Sugarcane cystatins are distinguished by their high inhibitory activity and possible
biotechnological applications. In this work, a comparative ...
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 ...
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 ...
Estudos genético-populacionais em Astyanax aff. Scabripinnis da região da Serra da Mantiqueira
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-10-19)
Genetic studies of natural populations have long been helping the scientific community and society in general to understand the evolution and conservation of both environments and communities. These studies have helped to ...
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. ...
