Acosta Reyes, Francisco Javier (Date of defense: 2016-05-26)
Non-coding DNA is rich in adenines and thymines. Their unique properties, such as high polymorphism, flexibility, transitional states that lead to DNA hairpin formation and the possibility to adopt either Watson-Crick or ...
Peng, Tian (Date of defense: 2021-05-21)
Structure system identification (SSI) can be classified as static and dynamic depending on the type of excitation. SSI by Observability Method (OM) using static tests was proposed and analyzed to address the observability ...
Björk, Johannes (Date of defense: 2016-06-03)
Microbes form intricate and intimate relationships with most animals and plants, many of which are crucial for host development, health and functioning. Microbe--host symbiotic associations are poorly explored in comparison ...
San Pedro Martín, Javier de (Date of defense: 2017-10-27)
Graphs are one of the most used abstractions in many knowledge fields because of the easy and flexibility by which graphs can represent relationships between objects. The pervasiveness of graphs in many disciplines means ...
Delavari, Azar (Date of defense: 2016-12-01)
Laccases belong to multi copper oxidase enzyme family (EC 1.10.3.2). Their capacity to oxidíze a wide range of substrates makes them very attractive for the industry and are growing in importance for environmentally-friendly ...
Razzaghi, Neda (Date of defense: 2022-11-25)
(English) Perception of the world by an organism is not possible unless decoding the received information through its sensory systems. In vertebrates, G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and ion channels are principal ...
Rasaeifar, Bahareh (Date of defense: 2020-12-10)
G-protein coupled receptors represents the largest family of membrane protein in eukaryotes cells with more than 800 members. The reason of their importance lies in their function, being responsible for the primary mechanism ...
