Este artigo é um recorte de uma pesquisa de doutorado que acompanhou os processos de tomada de consciência de 46 alunos recém-ingressos nos cursos de Fisioterapia e Odontologia, nas disciplinas de Biologia Básica e Citologia e Genética, as quais foram ministradas pelo pesquisador. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de natureza quali-quantitativa que utiliza diferentes instrumentos de coleta: questionário, mapas conceitua...
This work reports the results of analyses of three complete mycoplasma genomes, a pathogenic (7448) and a nonpathogenic (J) strain of the swine pathogen Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and a strain of the avian pathogen Mycoplasma synoviae; the genome sizes of the three strains were 920,079 bp, 897,405 bp, and 799,476 bp, respectively. These genomes were compared with other sequenced mycoplasma genomes reported in the...
The entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae contains three superoxide dismutases. One of these enzymes was purified and partially characterized as a CuZnSOD. The enzyme has an estimated molecular mass of 30 690 Da and a specific activity of 3838.89 U mg−1. SDS-PAGE and 2D gels show a single band of protein in the fractions eluted from the gel filtration column with a molecular mass of 20 000 and ∼15 000 ...
