• Fishing behavior in the red fox: opportunistic-caching behavior or surplus killing? 

  Tobajas, J.; Díaz-Ruiz, Francisco (Wiley, 2022)

  he red fox (Vulpes vulpes) is a mesocarnivore species that exploits opportunistically a wide range of prey items that are consumed as a function of their abundance and availability (Díaz-Ruiz et al., 2013). Fish are an ...

• Quantitative proteomic analysis of cyanide and mercury detoxification by pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes CECT 5344 

  Biełło, Karolina A.; Olaya-Abril, Alfonso; Cabello, Purificación; Rodríguez Caballero, Gema; Sáez, Lara P.; Moreno-Vivián, Conrado; Luque-Almagro, Víctor Manuel; Roldán, María Dolores (American Society for Microbiology, 2023)

  The cyanide-degrading bacterium Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes CECT 5344 uses cyanide and different metal-cyanide complexes as the sole nitrogen source. Under cyanotrophic conditions, this strain was able to grow with up ...

• Holistic view of biological nitrogen fixation and phosphorus mobilization in Azotobacter chroococcum NCIMB 8003 

  Biełło, Karolina A.; Lucena, Carlos; López-Tenllado, Francisco J.; Hidalgo-Carrillo, J.; Rodríguez Caballero, Gema; Cabello, Purificación; Sáez, Lara P.; Luque-Almagro, Víctor Manuel; Roldán, María Dolores; Moreno-Vivián, Conrado; Olaya-Abril, Alfonso (Frontiers, 2023)

  Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) deficiencies are two of the most agronomic problems that cause significant decrease in crop yield and quality. N and P chemical fertilizers are widely used in current agriculture, causing ...

• Alternative pathway for 3-cyanoalanine assimilation in pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes CECT5344 under Noncyanotrophic conditions 

  Pérez, María Dolores; Olaya-Abril, Alfonso; Cabello, Purificación; Sáez, Lara P.; Roldán, María Dolores; Moreno-Vivián, Conrado; Luque-Almagro, Víctor Manuel (American Society for Microbiology, 2021)

  3-Cyanoalanine and cyanohydrins are intermediate nitriles produced in cyanide degradation pathways in plants and bacteria. 3-Cyanoalanine is generated from cyanide by the 3-cyanoalanine synthase, an enzyme mainly characterized ...

• High ribonuclease activity in the testa of common bean seedlings during germination: implication and characterization of the Ribonuclease T2 PvRNS3 

  Díaz-Baena, Mercedes; Galvez-Valdivieso, Gregorio; Delgado-García, Elena; Piedras, Pedro (MDPI, 2023)

  T2 ribonucleases are endoribonucleases that are found in every organism and that carry out important biological functions. In plants, T2 ribonucleases are organized into multi-gene families, and each member is thought to ...
