The growth or virulence of M ycobacterium tuberculosis bacilli depends on homologous
type VII secretion systems, ESX ‐1, ESX ‐3 and ESX ‐5, which export a number of protein …

Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems regulate fundamental cellular processes in bacteria and
represent potential therapeutic targets. We report a new RES-Xre TA system in multiple human …

Type VII secretion systems (ESX) are responsible for transport of multiple proteins in mycobacteria.
How different ESX systems achieve specific secretion of cognate substrates remains …

Chlorite dismutase (Cld) is a b-type heme containing enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of
chlorite into chloride plus dioxygen. This enzyme has gained attention because it can be …

Chlorite dismutase (Cld) catalyzes the reduction of chlorite to chloride and dioxygen. Here,
the ligand binding to Cld of Magnetospirillum sp. (MaCld) is investigated with X-ray …

We report the first case of viscerotropic syndrome in Ecuador. Because of similarities
between yellow fever and viscerotropic syndrome, the incidence of this recently described …

There are 421 amphibian species in Ecuador, which makes the country the third most diverse
country in the world. In the last decade, this diversity has been threatened, in Ecuador …

Magnetospirillum (M.) sp. strain Lusitani, a perchlorate reducing bacteria (PRB), was previously
isolated from a wastewater treatment plant and phylogenetic analysis was performed to …

The present article was elaborated with the main intention of evidencing the audit activities
carried out in the company Cafeeira Berger Ltda. EPP. This audit was carried out in every …

The growth or virulence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacilli depends on homologous type
VII secretion systems, ESX-1, ESX-3 and ESX-5, which export a number of protein effectors …
