Molecular investigation and description of Iberozospeum n. gen., including the description of one new species (Eupulmonata, Ellobioidea, Carychiidae)
(Springer, 2022)[EN] The subterranean realm of the Cantabrian-Pyrenean region of northern Spain harbours a rich diversity of Zospeum. Due to their tiny size and the difficulty of finding them alive, scarce animal material has been available ... -
Molecular markers of oocyte differentiation in European eel during hormonally induced oogenesis
(Elsevier, 2017-09-01)Reproduction in captivity is a key study issue in Anguilla anguilla as a possible solution for its dwindling population. Understanding the mechanisms controlling the production of ribosomal building blocks during artificially ... -
Molecular Mechanisms Regulating the DNA Repair Protein APE1: A Focus on Its Flexible N-Terminal Tail Domain
(MDPI, 2021-06-11)APE1 (DNA (apurinic/apyrimidinic site) endonuclease 1) is a key enzyme of one of the major DNA repair routes, the BER (base excision repair) pathway. APE1 fulfils additional functions, acting as a redox regulator of ... -
Molecular nanoribbon gels
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022-08)Herein, we show that twisted molecular nanoribbons with as many as 322 atoms in the aromatic core are efficient gelators capable of self-assembling into ordered pi-gels with morphologies and sol-gel transitions that vary ... -
Molecular Optomechanics Approach to Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering
(American Chemical Society, 2022)[EN] CONSPECTUS: Molecular vibrations constitute one of the smallest mechanical oscillators available for micro-/nanoengineering. The energy and strength of molecular oscillations depend delicately on the attached specific ... -
Molecular phylogeny of the genus Chondrina (Gastropoda, Panpulmonata, Chondrinidae) in the Iberian Peninsula.
(Elsevier, 2022-07)[EN] Chondrina Reichenbach, 1828 is a highly diverse genus of terrestrial molluscs currently including 44 species with about 28 subspecific taxa. It is distributed through North Africa, central and southern Europe, from ... -
Molecular Recognition in C-Type Lectins: The Cases of DC- SIGN, Langerin, MGL, and L-Sectin
(2020-11-02)Carbohydrates play a pivotal role in intercellular communication processes. In particular, glycan antigens are key for sustaining homeostasis, helping leukocytes to distinguish damaged tissues and invading pathogens from ... -
Molecular recognition of a membrane-anchored HIV-1 pan-neutralizing epitope.
(Nature, 2022)Antibodies against the carboxy-terminal section of the membrane-proximal external region (C-MPER) of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) are considered as nearly pan-neutralizing. Development of vaccines capable of ... -
Molecular Recognition of Glycan-Bearing Glycomacromolecules Presented at Membrane Surfaces by Lectins: An NMR View
(American Chemical Society, 2023-05)Lectin–glycan interactions are at the heart of a multitude of biological events. Glycans are usually presented in a multivalent manner on the cell surface as part of the so-called glycocalyx, where they interact with other ... -
