Cellular and Enzymatic Determinants Impacting the Exolytic Action of an Anti-St...
Gouveia, Ana; Pinto, Daniela; Vítor, Jorge M. B.; São-José, CarlosBacteriophage endolysins are bacteriolytic enzymes that have been explored as potential weapons to fight antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Despite several studies support the application of endolysins as enzybiotics, detailed knowledge on cellular and enzymatic factors affecting their lytic activity is still missing. The bacterial membrane proton motive force (PMF) and certain cell wall glycopolymers of Gram-posit...
Human Cytomegalovirus vMIA Inhibits MAVS Oligomerization at Peroxisomes in an M...
Ferreira, Ana Rita; Gouveia, Ana; Magalhães, Ana Cristina; Valença, Isabel; Marques, Mariana; Kagan, Jonathan C; Ribeiro, DanielaUpon intracellular recognition of viral RNA, RIG-I-like proteins interact with MAVS at peroxisomes and mitochondria, inducing its oligomerization and the downstream production of direct antiviral effectors. The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is able to specifically evade this antiviral response, via its antiapoptotic protein vMIA. Besides suppressing the programmed cell death of infected cells, vMIA inhibits the ...

Evaluation of Risks and Benefits of Physical Activity: Fighting a Societal Burden
Brás, Rui; Esteves, Dulce; Rodrigues, Ricardo; Duarte, Paulo; Gouveia, Ana; O'Hara, Kelly; Pinheiro, PauloPhysical Activity (PA) is considered a coadjutant factor in the control of hypertension, helping to control this societal burden. This study investigates the factors that may influence the adoption of PA recommendations by hypertensive individuals by comparing physical activity patterns among hypertensives and normotensives and the importance placed on PA by both groups. Data from 966 Portuguese participants ag...
