Journal ArticleDOI

Swine and Poultry Pathogens: the Complete Genome Sequences of Two Strains of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and a Strain of Mycoplasma synoviae

Ana Tereza Ribeiro de Vasconcelos, +86 more
TL;DR: Genomic comparisons revealed that reduction in genome size implied loss of redundant metabolic pathways, with maintenance of alternative routes in different species, and indicated a likely transfer event of hemagglutinin-coding DNA sequences from M. gallisepticum to M. synoviae.
Journal ArticleDOI

The complete genome sequence of Chromobacterium violaceum reveals remarkable and exploitable bacterial adaptability

Ana Tereza Ribeiro de Vasconcelos, +97 more
TL;DR: The complete genome sequence reveals extensive alternative pathways for energy generation, complex and extensive systems for stress adaptation and motility, and widespread utilization of quorum sensing for control of inducible systems, all of which underpin the versatility and adaptability of the organism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chalcone Derivatives: Promising Starting Points for Drug Design.

TL;DR: This review summarizes current methodological developments towards the design and synthesis of new chalcone derivatives and state-of-the-art medicinal chemistry strategies (bioisosterism, molecular hybridization, and pro-drug design) and presents successful examples of the use of chalcones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative Genomic Analysis of Human Fungal Pathogens Causing Paracoccidioidomycosis

TL;DR: Gene family content across Onygenales and related fungi is characterized, and within Paracoccidioides the authors found expansions of the fungal-specific kinase family FunK1, and capabilities for degrading plant and animal substrates suggest a duality in lifestyle that could enable pathogenic species of OnYgenales to transfer from soil to animal hosts.
