Aunque ignoramos como surgió la vida en la Tierra, las evidencias disponibles sugieren que hace unos 3.5 mil millones de años el planeta ya se encontraba poblado por una microbiota extraordinariamente diversa. Desafortunadamente, la ausencia de rocas sedimentarias de las épocas tempranas de la historia del planeta nos impide reconstruir las condiciones ambientales que existían cuando apareció la vida. Es decir, no conocemos cual es era la composición de la atmósfera terrestre, la temperatura de la superficie de nuestro planeta, o el pH de los mares primitivos. Sin embargo, la presencia de aminoácidos, bases nitrogenadas, compuestos lipídicos y otros monómeros de importancia bioquímica en meteoritos condríticos, junto con los resultados obtenidos en experimentos como el llevado a cabo en 1953 por Stanley L. Miller, apoyan fuertemente la llamada hipótesis heterótrofa de A. I. Oparin, que sugirió desde 1924 que la vida surgió en nuestro planeta como resultado de la evolución de sistemas de compuestos orgánicos de origen abiótico. El descubrimiento accidental de las ribozimas ha validado las hipótesis propuestas de manera independiente desde los años 1960s por Rich, Woese, Crick y Orgel, que sugirieron la existencia de una fase primitiva en donde la replicación de los genomas y la catálisis dependían de RNA. Aunque estamos lejos de entender la manera en que surgieron los primeras moléculas d RNA o de algún polímero equivalente, el llamado mundo del RNA permite entender la ubicuidad de moléculas de RNA y de ribonucleótidos en muchos procesos celulares básicos, e implica que el origen del código genético y el surgimiento de la vida ya no se puedan considerar como sinónimos. 8 www.somich.cl Conferencia Plenaria Las respuestas inmune inatas que controlan la infección del intestino por Salmonella Typhimurium Innate immune responses controlling Salmonella Typhimurium gut infection Hardt, W1.,10 Institute of Microbiology, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. Salmonella typhimurium (S.Tm) is a common cause of infectious diarrhea. A mouse model allows dissecting the roles of the pathogen’s virulence factors, the microbiota and the host’s innate defenses in the disease. I will discuss recent findings demonstrating the key importance of innate defense in protecting the host during the initial phase of the infection. The intestinal epithelium is an essential barrier separating the sterile organs of the body from dense populations of gut lumen microorganisms. Some enteropathogens, such as S. Tm, can invade into and breach this barrier. We used the mouse model of Salmonella diarrhea to analyze if epithelium-intrinsic defenses might help protecting the host. Microscopy revealed an initial phase where S. Tm invades and grows within the absorptive epithelium. This niche is restricted by NAIP1-6, NLRC4 or caspase-1/-11-specific expulsion of infected epithelial cells, reducing gut tissue loads by as much as ~100-fold. Bone-marrow chimeras and epithelium-specific ablation suggest that epithelium-intrinsic inflammasomes drive this response. We speculate that expulsion of infected enterocytes may represent a generic defense against infections of the intestinal epithelium. 9 Libro de Resúmenes del XXXVI Congreso Chileno de Microbiología Conferencia Plenaria Empaquetamiento artificial de los componentes del divisoma. Wrapping divisome elements in artificial containers. Vicente, M1., 1 Centro Nacional de Biotecnología-CSIC. Partial assemblies of the Escherichia coli divisome have been reconstructed in vitro, from simple nanodiscs to complex giant vesicles (GUVs). Nanodiscs allowed to measure the affinity between FtsZ polymers or oligomers and ZipA when tethered to a lipid bilayer (Hernández-Rocamora et al., 2012, J. Biol. Chem.287: 30097-30104). In E. coli, FtsZ and ZipA, together with FtsA form the proto-ring, the structure initiating divisome assembly. FtsZ polymerization can be induced by addition of GTP to permeable GUVs in which ZipA has been attached. This causes the shrinkage and invagination of the vesicle resembling the membrane invagination observed, together with the loss of permeability barrier, in cells producing high amounts of ZipA (Cabré et al., 2013, J. Biol. Chem.288: 26625-26634). Maxicells were used to probe properties and interactions of the divisome components. They are nucleoid-free cells in which protein synthesis is possible (Sancar et al., 1979, J. Bacteriol.137: 692–693). Although their nucleoid is degraded after the induction of non-repairable damage caused by UV-light irradiation, plasmids, due to their smaller size, remain intact and their genes are expressed. Maxicells retain proteins and functions of living cells. For example, fluorescently tagged MinD and MinE, two components of one of the septum placement mechanisms in E. coli, retain their pole to pole oscillation which is therefore independent of the nucleoid. Other proteins as SlmA, one component of the alternative septum placement mechanism mediated by nucleoid occlusion (NO), as well as the FtsZ protein itself, are degraded (Pazos, et. al., 2014, PLoS ONE 9(3): e91984. doi:10.1371/journal. pone.0091984). In maxicells ZipA helps to stabilize FtsZ. Stabilization requires the FZB domain of ZipA to interact with the C-terminal central hub domain of FtsZ. FtsA*, which partly suppresses the requirement of ZipA for septation, is not efficient at stabilizing FtsZ (Pazos et al., 2013, J. Biol. Chem.288: 3219-3226). Even in the total absence of NO, the placement of FtsZ can be directed by the Min oscillations. Membrane anchoring is needed to organize FtsZ into rings and in addition the C-terminal hub of FtsZ is required for their correct placement. ZapA and ZapB are non-essential proteins that interact with each other and associate with FtsZ to promote and stabilize the FtsZ-ring. ZapB promotes the assembly of FtsZ into protofilaments and bundles. In maxicells ZapB localized to the division site independently from the nucleoid. A direct interaction of ZapB with FtsZ was found. Once the FtsZ ring disassembles after septation ZapA and ZapB may migrate from midcell to the pole taking FtsZ with them (Pazos et al., 2013, Environmental Microbiol. 15: 3282–3291). 10 www.somich.cl Conferencia Plenaria Host directed therapies for targeting pathogenic eukaryotes. Satoskar, A1.,1Pathology and Microbiology, The Ohio State University. Infections caused by viruses, bacteria, parasites and fungi are responsible for high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Over the last four decades, discovery of several new antimicrobial drugs has led to significant improvements in the clinical man- agement of infectious diseases. However, due to the rapid emergence of drug resistance, a high prevalence of co-infections and increased incidence

  • Reserves and Resources of Ores and Fluorite/Barite in Saxony
    Reserves and resources of ores and fluorite/barite in Saxony (= detailed version of LEHMANN (2010): Reserves and resources of ores and fluorite/barite in Saxony. – World of Mining – Surface & Underground, 62, 1/2010, 38-47, GDMB Informationsgesellschaft mbH; in february 2011 actualized/supplemented) Abstract Between 2006 – 2008 tangible geological and economical data of the most important occurrences and deposits of ores and fluorite/barite in Saxony were compiled. For the 139 occurrences and deposits included in this data base reserves and resources of 31 elements and industrial minerals are reported based on the categorisation used in the former German Democratic Republic. This resource resp. reserve categories are based on standards that may be still used today to assess the validity of the data. The significance of this classification under market economic conditions needs to be critically reassessed. Such a reassessment may result in significant increases or reductions of reserve/resource figures. The data base illustrates the availability of large reserves/resources in known deposit districts with significant brown fields exploration potential. This renders medium-term reactivation of the metal and industrial mineral mining industry in Saxony likely. 1. Project ROHSA Funded by the Saxonian Ministry of Economy and Labour in the period from 2006 – 2008 the Geokompetenzzentrum Freiberg e.V. (GKZ) compiled available data on the most important occurrences and deposits of metal as well as industrial minerals (fluorite, barite) in Saxony. Using the acronym ROHSA (Rohstoffe Sachsen) it was the aim of this exercise to critically reassess the known resources/reserves for market economic conditions. Data were sourced mostly from the geological archives of the State Office of Environment, Agriculture and Geology (LfULG) of Saxony as well as the WISMUT GmbH and several other institutions.

  • Globex Mining Ent. (GMX) Company Report – October 13, 2018
    Smallcaps Investment Research Globex Mining Ent. (GMX) Company Report – October 13, 2018 Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. is a North American focused exploration and development project generator. The Company has an exceptionally well-diversified portfolio of assets, with exposure to a wide range of commodities. The value proposition for Globex is enhanced by the strategy to build diversification amongst the holdings of the Company. This means that management is always working to establish ownership of multiple properties, in different jurisdictions, and with leverage to many resources. Globex currently controls more than 160 properties. Further diversification is achieved through a portfolio of approximately 48 royalty agreements held by the Company. One such royalty has already generated CDN $1.83 million in revenue for Globex in 2018. This is in addition to option revenue. The combination of these high-quality assets, from control of early stage exploration prospects through to productive royalties on operating mines, enables Globex to fund a variety of work activity while maintaining a pipeline of projects that lower the overall risk profile for the Company. We reiterate our buy recommendation for Globex Mining Enterprises with a price target of $1.08, which is 272% above today’s stock price. The abundance of priority targets that have been outlined at the Braunsdorf Project in Germany demonstrates the highly prospective nature of this large property area, and the opportunity that at least one new discovery zone may be achieved as the next phase of exploration work begins. Globex shareholders have great leverage to this property as it is one of the active exploration prospects that remains wholly owned by the Company.

    Smallcaps Investment Research Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. (GMX) April 06, 2019 Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. is a North American focused exploration and development project generator. The Company has an exceptionally well-diversified portfolio of assets, with exposure to a wide range of commodities. The value proposition for Globex is enhanced by the strategy to build diversification amongst the holdings of the Company. This means that management is working to establish ownership of multiple properties, in different jurisdictions, and with leverage to many resources. Globex currently controls 166 properties and/or property royalties. Diversification is further achieved through a portfolio of approximately 55 royalty agreements held by the Company. One such royalty has already generated CDN $1.83 million in revenue for Globex in 2018. This is in addition to option revenue which combined with royalty revenue generated almost $3 million in 2018. With its large high-quality portfolio of resource property holdings, the active exploration programs underway, and the current income stream from ownership of royalties, Globex is providing shareholders with a dynamic platform for value creation. We reiterate our buy recommendation for Globex Mining Enterprises with a price target of $1.10, which is 223% above today’s stock price. In 2018, Globex earned royalties of $1,815,435 from Nyrstar’s Mid Tennessee mine, and expects to continue receiving between $100,000 and $150,000 or more per month in 2019. In addition, Globex has a number of option agreements in place which are estimated to potentially generate gross option payments in excess of $1.0 million in 2019.

  • Globex Mining Ent. (GMX) Company Report – December 02, 2017
    Smallcaps Investment Research Globex Mining Ent. (GMX) Company Report – December 02, 2017 Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. is a North American focused exploration and development project generator. The Company has an exceptionally well-diversified portfolio of assets, with exposure to a wide range of commodities. As a result of the restart of Nyrstar’s Mid Tennessee mine in May 2017, Globex anticipates receiving royalties of at least between $150,000 and $175,000 per month. This is just one of Globex’ recurring revenue sources. The past few weeks, the Company received well over $1 million in cash and shares. These funds will be used to acquire other attractive properties and to cover exploration and property maintenance costs. The Francoeur/Arntfield property is a prime example of this strategy. Since Globex acquired it 1.5 years ago, it has been significantly advanced. It now demonstrates the potential for a large tonnage low grade near surface gold deposit in additional to the more classic Abitibi higher grade underground minable deposit. We feel that Francoeur/Arntfield alone justifies Globex current market valuation. Another recent acquisition is the Bräunsdorf silver property in Saxony, Germany. Thanks to the initial information that Globex obtained, it’s clear that it could become a promising endeavor. Based on these calculations, we reiterate our buy recommendation for Globex Mining Enterprises with a price target of $1.19, which is 176% above today’s stock price. Unlike investments in traditional junior resource companies where most investors speculate on the outcome of one or two projects, Globex has a much lower downside as it puts its eggs in multiple baskets, allowing them to significantly reduce the inherent risk of the mineral exploration and development business.
