Bacteriophages (phages) are the most predominant and genetically diverse biological entities on Earth. Phages are viruses that infect bacteria and encode numerous proteins with potential biotechnological application. However, most phage-encoded proteins remain functionally uncharacterized. Depolymerases (DPOs) in particular, enzymes that degrade external polysaccharide structures, have garnered increasing inter...
The natural stone as a building material has been revealed to have much lower life cycle costs than other materials as concrete, glass and steel. For this reason, it has a positive impact on the environment. However, several incidents with different pathologies on distinct lithologies has led to an increase in maintenance costs. The lack of knowledge on a stone performance over time and the frequent absence of ...

Através de diferentes perspectivas, o presente trabalho pretende analisar o filme Museum Town (Jennifer Trainer, 2019) e o modo como este dá conta do processo de revitalização do espaço que originou MASS MoCA. Para tal, o artigo segue três linhas orientadoras: 1) a história de North-Adams que 2) se cruza com a história de MASS MoCA – e que vai sendo apresentada através de imagens de arquivo e de entrevistas –, ...
A. baumannii is an important nosocomial and drug-resistant pathogen. The capsule is a major virulence factor that helps bacteria to avoid host immunity and viral predation. Acinetobacter phages can bind and degrade host capsules through capsular depolymerases with proven anti-virulence activity (1-3). Understanding the full reservoir of phage depolymerases against A. baumannii capsules, as well as relevant caps...
The present article aims to analyse three films by Richard Linklater: Before Sunrise, 1995, Before Sunset, 2004 and Before Midnight, 2013 that focus on the story of a couple over the course of eighteen years. Besides pointing out some of the most relevant aspects of each narrative, the proposed analysis focuses essentially on the journey made by the two characters - Jesse and Céline - and on the various locatio...
Santarém insere-se num sistema alargado com uma escala peninsular – o Tejo. Entendemos que a cidade é um ponto nesta estrutura e começamos a pensar o território a partir daí. O rio que liga a cidade e o mar, e que liga os homens a este território. Numa segunda escala de aproximação entramos no âmbito do baixo-Tejo e da lezíria. A lezíria é uma extensa área de produção – uma paisagem construída ao longo do tempo...
Passada num ambiente distópico, Judge Dredd é uma obra de HQ que centra a sua atenção em temas como o totalitarismo, autoritarismo, a violência ou os perigos da tecnologia. O estudo aqui apresentado procura olhar para a obra de Wagner e Ezquerra explorando, em primeiro lugar, o universo da personagem Dredd, para depois analisar as duas adaptações cinematográficas (1995, 2012) que se lhe seguiram e a forma como ...
