1. pTcGW plasmid vectors 1.1 version: a versatile tool for Trypanosoma cruzi gene characterisation
The functional characterisation of thousands of Trypanosoma cruzi genes remains a challenge. Reverse genetics approaches compatible with high-throughput cloning strategies can provide the tool needed to tackle this challenge. We previously published the pTcGW platform, composed by plasmid vectors carrying different options of N-terminal fusion tags based on

2. Efficient assembly of full-length infectious clone of Brazilian IBDV isolate by homologous recombination in yeast
The Infectious Bursal Disease Virus (IBDV) causes immunosuppression in young chickens. Advances in molecular virology and vaccines for IBDV have been achieved by viral reverse genetics (VRG). VRG for IBDV has undergone changes over time, however all strategies used to generate particles of IBDV involves multiple rounds of amplification and need of in vitro l

3. Construction and characterisation of a complete reverse genetics system of dengue virus type 3
Dengue virulence and fitness are important factors that determine disease outcome. However, dengue virus (DENV) molecular biology and pathogenesis are not completely elucidated. New insights on those mechanisms have been facilitated by the development of reverse genetic systems in the past decades. Unfortunately, instability of flavivirus genomes cloned in E

4. CONSTRUÇÃO E MANIPULAÇÃO DE CLONE INFECCIOSO DE UMA AMOSTRA BRASILEIRA DO VÍRUS DA DIARREIA VIRAL BOVINA / CONSTRUCTION AND MANIPULATION OF INFECTIOUS CLONE FROM A BRAZILIAN BOVINE VIRAL DIARRHEA VIRUS ISOLATE
O vírus da diarreia viral bovina (BVDV) é um patógeno de bovinos distribuído mundialmente, associado com importantes perdas econômicas. As maiores perdas devem-se aos problemas reprodutivos causados pela infecção, e pela capacidade do vírus de causar persistência após infecção fetal no terço inicial da gestação. Para entender melhor a biologia

5. O papel modulador do receptor símile a TOLL 2 (TLR2) e da microbiota intestinal na sensibilidade e sinalização da insulina em camundongos / The modulatory role of the Toll-like receptor (TLR)2 and of the gut microbiota in the modulation of the insulin sensitivity and signaling
Environmental factors and host genetics interact to control the gut microbiota, which may have a role in the development of obesity and insulin resistance. TLR2 deficient mice, under germ-free conditions are protected from diet-induced insulin resistance. Diet-induced obese mice, acutely treated with TLR2 oligonucleotide antisense during 4 days showed increa

6. CARACTERIZAÇÃO MOLECULAR DE LENTIVÍRUS DE PEQUENOS RUMINANTES ISOLADOS NO BRASIL / MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION OF Small ruminant lentiviruses ISOLATED IN BRAZIL
CAEV and MVV have been considered genetically distinct but antigenically related as pathogens of goats and sheep, respectively. Moreover, it was demonstrated that these viruses are constantly and easily breaking the barrier between sheep and goats, sheep being infected with CAEV and MVV infecting goats. Like all lentiviruses, the genome of CAEV has a high mu

7. Caracterização de determinantes genéticos envolvidos na qualidade industrial e nutricional do fruto de tomate / Characterization of genetic determinants involved in industrial and nutritional quality of tomato fruit
This thesis addresses tomato fruit metabolism analysis by using three complementary approaches: i) the identification of candidate genes co-located with QTL previously described from metabolic profiles of S. lycopersicum (cv. M82) and S. pennellii introgressed lines, associated with industrial and nutritional quality traits; ii) the structural analyses of th

8. The RNA interference revolution
The discovery of double-stranded RNA-mediated gene silencing has rapidly led to its use as a method of choice for blocking a gene, and has turned it into one of the most discussed topics in cell biology. Although still in its infancy, the field of RNA interference has already produced a vast array of results, mainly in Caenorhabditis elegans, but recently al

9. Detection and molecular characterization of gene 3 and 5 of turkey coronavirus (TCoV) from turkeys with severe enteritis in Brazil. / Detecção e caracterização molecular do gene 3 e 5 do coronavírus de perus (TCOV) isolados de perus com severa enterite no Brasil.
Turkey coronavirus (TCoV) is causative agent associated to Poult Enteritis and Mortality Syndrome (PEMS) in turkeys wideworld. The disease is characterized by an acute highly contagious enteric disease of turkeys characterized by depression, anorexia, diarrhea and high mortality in co mMercial turkey flocks. The presence of turkey coronavirus (TCoV) in 29 in

10. Expressão de genes de resposta a estresses ambientais em mutantes defectivos de milho e Arabidopsis
Reverse genetics and gene expression analysis has been the main approach adopted in order to carry out the functional characterization of genes. Results from such studies have typically demonstrated that same gene can be involved in different cell functions. In this context, analysis of trehalose metabolism in plants has revealed that this pathway plays an i

12. High pressure-sensitive gene expression in Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis
Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis is a Gram-positive lactic acid bacterium used in food biotechnology. It is necessary to investigate many aspects of a model organism to elucidate mechanisms of stress response, to facilitate preparation, application and performance in food fermentation, to understand mechanisms of inactivation, and to identify novel tools for h
