Comparative genomics reveals a novel genetic organization of the sad cluster in...
Reis, AC; Kolvenbach, BA; Chami, M; Gales, L; Egas, C; Corvini, PFX; Nunes, OCBACKGROUND: Microbial communities recurrently establish metabolic associations resulting in increased fitness and ability to perform complex tasks, such as xenobiotic degradation. In a previous study, we have described a sulfonamide-degrading consortium consisting of a novel low-abundant actinobacterium, named strain GP, and Achromobacter denitrificans PR1. However, we found that strain GP was unable to grow in...

Expression of genes encoding extracellular matrix macromolecules and metallopro...
Velada, I; Capela e Silva, F; Reis, F; Pires, E; Egas, C; Rodrigues-Santos, P; Barros, MTAvian tibial dyschondroplasia (TD) is a skeletal disease characterized by disruption of endochondral bone formation. The aim of this study was to determine the expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) macromolecules and ECM-degrading enzymes [matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)] in the growth plates of normal and TD-affected 3-week-old broiler chicks (Cobb strain). Protein levels were analyzed by immunoblotting an...
