1. Engineering biodiversity as a model for the species conservation
Abstract: Early humans have domesticated plant and animal species based on ancient empirical concepts (Darwin 1868, 1876). In 1886, Mendel established a new paradigm of hereditary laws (Mendel 1866, 1870, 1950) based on genotypic and phenotypic traits of cross-compatible species, establishing a complex breeding technology that is currently utilized for the d

2. De novo transcriptome assembly of the lobster cockroach Nauphoeta cinerea (Blaberidae)
Abstract The use of Drosophila as a scientific model is well established, but the use of cockroaches as experimental organisms has been increasing, mainly in toxicology research. Nauphoeta cinerea is one of the species that has been studied, and among its advantages is its easy laboratory maintenance. However, a limited amount of genetic data about N. cinere

3. Detection of differentially methylated regions of irradiated fig tree selections
ABSTRACT Fig tree (Ficus carica L.) breeding programs using conventional methods, such as directed crosses, to obtain new cultivars, are unworkable in many countries, including Brazil. Consequently, genetic breeding through mutagenesis has emerged as an important line of research that can improve this crop, and be a significant source of information about th

4. Neo-Agro-Colonialism, Control over Life, and Imposed Spatio-Temporalities
Abstract The control over what Dillon and Lobo-Guerrero (2008) conceptualise as ‘pluripotent’ life has become an essential factor of capitalist agriculture; this occurs through the regulation of strategic genetic resources. We recognise this course as part of a larger project of neo-agro-colonialism, which takes place by controlling both biotechnology an

5. RNA-binding proteins and their role in the regulation of gene expression in Trypanosoma cruzi and Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Abstract RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have important functions in the regulation of gene expression. RBPs play key roles in post-transcriptional processes in all eukaryotes, such as splicing regulation, mRNA transport and modulation of mRNA translation and decay. RBPs assemble into different mRNA-protein complexes, which form messenger ribonucleoprotein compl

6. Genetic Engineering In BioButanol Production And Tolerance
ABSTRACT The growing need to address current energy and environmental problems has sparked an interest in developing improved biological methods to produce liquid fuels from renewable sources. Higher-chain alcohols possess chemical properties that are more similar to gasoline. Ethanol and butanol are two products which are used as biofuel. Butanol production

7. Use of homologous recombination in yeast to create chimeric bovine viral diarrhea virus cDNA clones
Abstract The open reading frame of a Brazilian bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) strain, IBSP4ncp, was recombined with the untranslated regions of the reference NADL strain by homologous recombination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, resulting in chimeric full-length cDNA clones of BVDV (chi-NADL/IBSP4ncp#2 and chi-NADL/IBSP4ncp#3). The recombinant clones were

8. Evo-devo of non-bilaterian animals
The non-bilaterian animals comprise organisms in the phyla Porifera, Cnidaria, Ctenophora and Placozoa. These early-diverging phyla are pivotal to understanding the evolution of bilaterian animals. After the exponential increase in research in evolutionary development (evo-devo) in the last two decades, these organisms are again in the spotlight of evolution

9. Use of the heteroduplex mobility assay and cell sorting to select genome sequences of the CCR5 gene in HEK 293T cells edited by transcription activator-like effector nucleases
Engineered nucleases such as zinc finger nucleases (ZFN) and transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALEN) are one of the most promising tools for modifying genomes. These site-specific enzymes cause double- strand breaks that allow gene disruption or gene insertion, thereby facilitating genetic manipulation. The major problem associated with this

10. Downregulation of caffeoyl-CoA O-methyltransferase (CCoAOMT) by RNA interference leads to reduced lignin production in maize straw
Lignin is a major cell wall component of vascular plants that provides mechanical strength and hydrophobicity to vascular vessels. However, the presence of lignin limits the effective use of crop straw in many agroindustrial processes. Here, we generated transgenic maize plants in which the expression of a lignin biosynthetic gene encoding CCoAOMT , a key en

11. Indução de programas genéticos lineares para modelagem de processos de manipulação de informação / Induction of linear genetic programs for modeling data manipulation processes
Reproduzindo tendências verificadas em outros setores produtivos, métodos para automatizar etapas e reduzir custos têm sido propostos na área de desenvolvimento de software. Entretanto, a etapa mais trabalhosa, a codificação da solução, continua sendo realizada quase que exclusivamente por programadores humanos. Trabalhos na área de geração autom�

12. Da antropologia pragmática à antropologia bioética: o princípio da prudência-ponte dirimindo o reducionismo em bioética pertinente à vida humana no nível molecular
This thesis aims to demonstrate that there is a reductionism in bioethics and this comes out as one of three ways: a) topological; b) proximity; and c) life secularization. These three forms of reductionism hinder a definition of a moral status and also a prudential deal of the genetic materials and human embryos. Thus, there is a quickly advance of biotechn
