Functional Analysis of TM6 MADS-box gene in the Octoploid Strawberry by CRISPR/Cas9 directed mutagenesis
(bioRxiv, 2018-06-20)The B-class of MADS-box transcription factors has been studied in many plant species, but remain functionally uncharacterized in the Rosaceae family. APETALA3 (AP3), a member of this class, controls the identity of petals ... -
Functional Analysis of TM6 MADS-box gene in the Octoploid Strawberry by CRISPR/Cas9 directed mutagenesis
(Oxford University Press, 2019-01)The B-class of MADS-box transcription factors has been studied in many plant species, but remains functionally unchar- acterized in Rosaceae. APETALA3 (AP3), a member of this class, controls petal and stamen identities in ... -
Gene expression atlas of fruit ripening and transcriptome assembly from RNA-seq data in octoploid strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa)
(Springer Nature, 2017-10-23)RNA-seq has been used to perform global expression analysis of the achene and the receptacle at four stages of fruit ripening, and of the roots and leaves of strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa). About 967 million reads and ... -
Genome Editing as a Tool for Fruit Ripening Manipulation
(Frontiers, 2018-09-25)Over the last few years, a series of tools for genome editing have been developed, allowing the introduction of precise changes into plant genomes. These have included Zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcription activator-like ... -
Hydroxytyrosol targets extracellular matrix remodeling by endothelial cells and inhibits both ex vivo and in vivo angiogenesis
(Elsevier, 2017-04)The health benefits of olive oil are attributed to their bioactive compounds, such as hydroxytyrosol. Previously, we demonstrated that hydroxytyrosol inhibits angiogenesis in vitro. The present study aimed to: i) get further ... -
KinFams: De-Novo Classification of Protein Kinases Using CATH Functional Units
(IOAP-MDPI, 2023-02-02)Protein kinases are important targets for treating human disorders, and they are the second most targeted families after G-protein coupled receptors. Several resources provide classification of kinases into evolutionary ... -
Mathematical modeling of cancer metabolism
(2018-10-19)Systemic approaches are needed and useful for the study of the very complex issue of cancer. Modeling has a central position in these systemic approaches. Metabolic reprogramming is nowadays acknowledged as an essential ... -
Metabolic Adjustments following Glutaminase Inhibition by CB-839 in Glioblastoma Cell Lines
(IOAP-MDPI, 2023-01-15)Glioblastoma multiforme is the most common primary brain tumor. Unfortunately, it is also one of the cancer types that has the worst morbidity and mortality ratios, so new targets and treatments need to be found. The ... -
Metabolic Reprogramming is a Hallmark of Metabolism Itself
(2020-09-23)The reprogramming of metabolism has been identified as one of the hallmarks of cancer. It is becoming more and more frequent to connect other diseases with metabolic reprogramming. This article aims to argue that metabolic ... -
Metabolism within the tumor microenvironment and its implication on cancer progression: an ongoing therapeutic target
(2018-10-19)Since reprogramming energy metabolism is considered a new hallmark of cancer, tumor metabolism is again in the spotlight of cancer research. Many studies have been carried out and many possible therapies have been developed ... -
