Global climate change poses a major threat to agricultural production and food security worldwide and especially in the tropics. Research and development efforts deploying advanced biotechnology tools for the genetic adaptation of crops to the underlying stresses are greatly concentrated in agricultural biotechnology transnationals. This proposal calls for an initiative jointly supported …

O Programa de Equipamentos Multiusuários (EMU) da FAPESP tem natureza infra estrutural e destina-se à aquisição de instrumentos científicos caracterizados por terem utilidade, de forma continuada, para um conjunto de pesquisadores com ampla experiência e comprovada competência. O Programa contempla e estimula a estruturação e/ou o equipamento de Laboratórios Multiusuário Centralizados (em…
In this study, we plan to combine complementary expertise from three research teams to develop a comprehensive characterization of PK pathway activation in BCR-ABL1-like ALL, with a goal of identifying and validating new targets for the development of dru (AU)
Mais de 500 proteínas quinases estão presentes no genoma humano, atuando como chaves regulatórias de praticamente todos os processos fisiológicos do organismo humano. As quinases podem ser moduladas através de pequenas moléculas químicas altamente potentes. No entanto, apesar de sua importância e adequação para a descoberta de fármacos, a maioria das pesquisas acadêmicas e farmacêuticas t…

Global climate change poses a major threat to agricultural production and food security around the world, especially in the tropics. This proposal for a postdoctoral fellowship project aims to genetically transform maize and Arabidopsis thaliana to interrogate the function of abiotic-stress-related genes. The project involves the cultivation, optimization of transformation protocols, and …
Global climate change poses a major threat to agricultural production and food security worldwide and, especially, in the tropics. Research and development efforts to develop plants adapted to the conditions of severe water stress and high temperatures have been concentrated in the large transnational agricultural biotechnology companies. In Brazil, despite the scientific critical mass of…

Climate change directly impacts the sustainable development of agriculture, as challenging environmental conditions put global agricultural production at risk and demand a great use of natural resources, fertilizers and pesticides. Thus, it is imperative to develop technologies that assist in maintaining agricultural production even in unfavorable environmental conditions. Studies have sh…

Maize (Zea mays) is one of the world's leading cereal crops, and it is a plant model for genetic and biotechnology studies. However, maize genetic transformation faces complex and frequent barriers, such as the recalcitrance of many inbred lines to current protocols employing immature embryos as the starting material. Thus, the main objective of this project is to develop new pro-tocols t…
The research plan presented in this application is a continuation of the Collaborative Project (BBSRC/EMBRAPA BB/N004523/1). A part of the project was conducted during a BEPE project of the applicant (FAPESP 2015/25881-1). Barley plants were transformed with a construct targeted at overexpression (oe) of Arabidopsis UCP1. In addition, a series of mutants for the N-End Rule pathway were t…
Mitochondria are the reason eukaryotic cells could arise more than a billion years ago. It is the most ancient and interconnected organelle inside the eukaryote cell, which obligate them to preserve the organelle integrity to stay alive. The mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCPs) are among the ~1,000 proteins that compose the mitochondrial architecture and play a key role in securing in…
The Saccharopine pathway of lysine degradation has been studied for decades in plants and mammals as the main regulator of lysine levels. It has been demonstrated that its role goes beyond the catabolic component, connecting to cellular responses against oxidative and osmotic stresses. The first steps are performed by the bifunctional enzyme LKR-SDH (Lysine Ketoglutarate Reductase (LKR)/ …
