Pathogens try to escape from our immune system by mutating their proteins. To prevent the bacterium from infecting the cells with a single mutation, the NAIP5 protein of the inflammosome is capable of detecting bacterial flagellin at several sites.

El día 11 de febrero ha sido elegido como el “Día Internacional de la Mujer y la Niña en la Ciencia” por la ONU. El objetivo es dar a conocer el papel de las mujeres en ciencia y a la vez conseguir que la investigación científica sea una de las aspiraciones de futuro en nuestros menores independientemente de su género. En nuestro país se organizan múltiples actividades en relación con esta celebración. Desde el IQFR apoyamos esta iniciativa participando activamente mediante talleres, charlas y debates por parte de nuestras investigadoras.

The i-motif is four-stranded DNA structure stabilized by hemiprotonated cytosine base pairs (C:C+). Although this is a very attractive structural motif for the development of devices at a nanometric scale, the requirement of acidic pH for its formation makes the i-motif occurrence in vivo controversial.
