Simple biochemical concepts can be hard to grasp by non-specialists, even when they are related to practical contexts in industry, day-to-day activities, or well-acknowledged pathological conditions. This is especially important in instances where ac...
Researchers at Universities generate and convey the knowledge acquired through communications in specialized (inter)national journals and congresses. An effort to share the scientific achievements with the general public is extremely important. For t...
PDZ domains are involved in many cellular processes and are key regulators of the cell physiology. A huge number of studies have investigated the binding specificity of PDZ domains to the carboxyl-terminal sequence of target proteins, while the molec...
Since the start of the COVID-19 outbreak, more than four million people have died of this disease. Given its ability to provide a precise response, mass spectrometry-based proteomics could represent a useful tool to study this pathology. To this end,...
Sensing is an essential feature of life, where many systems have been developed. Diatomic molecules such as O2, NO and CO exhibit an important role in life, which requires specialized sensors. Among the sensors discovered, heme-based gas sensors comp...
Infection and sepsis remain among the leading causes of neonatal mortality. The susceptibility of newborns to infection can be attributed to their immature immune system. Regarding immune response, monocytes represent a numerically minor population o...
Polyoxometalates (POMs) are clusters of units of oxoanions of transition metals, such as Mo, W, V and Nb, that can be formed upon acidification of neutral solutions. Once formed, some POMs have shown to persist in solution, even in the neutral and ba...
Bipolar Disorder (BD), a chronic mental illness, does not have an ideal treatment, and patients with BD have a higher chance of being diagnosed with alcohol abuse, liver disease, and diabetes. The goal of treatment is to prevent a relapse in BD episo...
