An eIF4E allele confers resistance to an uncapped and non-polyadenylated RNA virus in melon
Cristina Nieto,Mónica Morales,Gisella Orjeda,Christian Clepet,Amparo Monfort,Bénédicte Sturbois,Pere Puigdomènech,Michel Pitrat,Michel Caboche,Catherine Dogimont,Jordi Garcia-Mas,Miguel A. Aranda,Abdelhafid Bendahmane +12 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that translation initiation factors of the eIF4E family are universal determinants of plant susceptibility to RNA viruses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Horizontal Transmissible Protection against Myxomatosis and Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease by Using a Recombinant Myxoma Virus
Juan Bárcena,Mónica Morales,Belén Vázquez,José Antonio Boga,Francisco Parra,Javier Lucientes,Albert Pagès-Manté,José Manuel Sánchez-Vizcaíno,Rafael Blasco,Juan María Torres +9 more
TL;DR: A new strategy for immunization of wild rabbit populations against myxomatosis and rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD) that uses recombinant viruses based on a naturally attenuated field strain of myxoma virus (MV) is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Hsp70 gene in Chironomus riparius: expression in response to endocrine disrupting pollutants as a marker of ecotoxicological stress.
Mónica Morales,Rosario Planelló,Pedro Martínez-Paz,Oscar Herrero,Estrella Cortés,José Luis Martínez-Guitarte,Gloria Morcillo +6 more
TL;DR: The rapid upregulation of the Hsp70 gene suggests that it is sensitive and selective for different environmental pollutants, and could be used as an early molecular endpoint in ecotoxicological studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progression of prion infectivity in asymptomatic cattle after oral bovine spongiform encephalopathy challenge.
TL;DR: In this paper, a collection of tissues from asymptomatic cattle challenged orally with BSE and culled at 20, 24, 27, 30 and 33 months have been used to inoculate intracerebrally BoPrP-Tg110 mice expressing bovine PrP to assess their infectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sheep-Passaged Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Agent Exhibits Altered Pathobiological Properties in Bovine-PrP Transgenic Mice
Juan Carlos Espinosa,Olivier Andreoletti,Joaquín Castilla,Maria Eugenia Herva,Mónica Morales,Elia Alamillo,Fayna Díaz San-Segundo,Caroline Lacroux,Séverine Lugan,Francisco J. Salguero,Jan P. M. Langeveld,Juan María Torres +11 more
TL;DR: Data indicate that BSE agent can be altered by crossing a species barrier, raising concerns about the virulence of this new prion towards other species, including humans.
