Forgotten industrial heritage: the cement factory from La Granja d’Escarp
(MDPI, 2025)
In the municipality of La Granja d’Escarp, for over thirty years, an important natural cement factory was in operation. In 1876, the Girona family, who were businessmen and bankers from Barcelona, opened ...
Hormone-induced repression of genes requires BRG1-mediated H1.2 deposition at target promoters
(EMBO Press, 2016)
Eukaryotic gene regulation is associated with changes in chromatin compaction that modulate access to DNA regulatory sequences relevant for transcriptional activation or repression. Although much is ...
Neurophysiological signatures of prediction in language: A critical review of anticipatory negativities
(Elsevier, 2024)
Recent event-related potential (ERP) studies in language comprehension converge in finding anticipatory negativities preceding words or word segments that can be pre-activated based on either sentence ...
SURE editing: combining oligo-recombineering and programmable insertion/deletion of selection markers to efficiently edit the Mycoplasma pneumoniae genome
(Oxford University Press, 2022)
The development of advanced genetic tools is boosting microbial engineering which can potentially tackle wide-ranging challenges currently faced by our society. Here we present SURE editing, a ...
In situ U-value measurement of building envelopes through continuous low-cost monitoring
(Elsevier, 2023)
Accurate characterization of the transmittance parameter (U-value) is decisive when assessing energy demand or energy consumption of buildings. The U-value of building envelopes is usually estimated ...
SIREs 3.0, an improved RNA prediction tool for iron-responsive elements
(Oxford Academic, 2025)
Iron-responsive elements (IREs) are cis-acting regulatory RNA motifs that bind to iron regulatory proteins (IRP1 and IRP2), playing an essential role in the post-transcriptional regulation of genes ...
Identification of new microRNA-regulated genes by conserved targeting in plant species
(Oxford University Press, 2012)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are major regulators of gene expression in multicellular organisms. They recognize their targets by sequence complementarity and guide them to cleavage or translational arrest. It is ...
A simplified scheme for piezoelectric anisotropic analysis in human vertebrae using integral methods
(Hindawi, 2018)
This paper outlines a computational model for the analysis of the piezoelectric behaviour of the vertebral body remodelling process. Particular attention is paid to the algorithms for the simulation of ...
comTAR: a web tool for the prediction and characterization of conserved microRNA targets in plants
(Oxford University Press, 2014)
Motivation: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are major regulators of gene expression in plants and animals. They recognize their target messenger RNAs (mRNAs) by sequence complementarity and guide them to cleavage ...
Muscarinic transmission in the basolateral amygdala is necessary for the acquisition of socially transmitted food preferences in rats
(Elsevier, 2009)
We examined the involvement of muscarinic receptors in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) in the social transmission of food preference (STFP) learning by assessing the effects of scopolamine (20 μg/side), ...
