• Amyloid structures as biofilm matrix scaffolds 

      Taglialegna, Agustina Upna; Lasa Uzcudun, Íñigo Upna Orcid; Valle Turrillas, Jaione Upna Orcid (American Society for Microbiology, 2016)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Recent insights into bacterial biofilm matrix structures have induced a paradigm shift toward the recognition of amyloid fibers as common building block structures that confer stability to the exopolysaccharide matrix. ...
    • Bacterial biofilm functionalization through Bap amyloid engineering 

      Matilla Cuenca, Leticia Upna Orcid; Taglialegna, Agustina Upna; Gil Puig, Carmen Upna Orcid; Toledo Arana, Alejandro; Lasa Uzcudun, Íñigo; Valle Turrillas, Jaione Upna Orcid (Springer Nature, 2022)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Biofilm engineering has emerged as a controllable way to fabricate living structures with programmable functionalities. The amyloidogenic proteins comprising the biofilms can be engineered to create self-assembling ...
    • The biofilm-associated surface protein Esp of Enterococcus faecalis forms amyloid-like fibers 

      Taglialegna, Agustina Upna; Matilla Cuenca, Leticia Upna Orcid; Dorado Morales, Pedro Upna Orcid; Navarro, Susanna; Ventura, Salvador; Garnett, James A.; Lasa Uzcudun, Íñigo Upna Orcid; Valle Turrillas, Jaione Upna Orcid (Nature ResearchNanyang Technological University (Singapur), 2020)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Functional amyloids are considered as common building block structures of the biofilm matrix in different bacteria. In previous work, we have shown that the staphylococcal surface protein Bap, a member of the Biofilm-Associated ...
    • Staphylococcal Bap proteins build amyloid scaffold biofilm matrices in response to environmental signals 

      Taglialegna, Agustina Upna; Navarro, Susanna; Ventura, Salvador; Garnett, James A.; Matthews, Steve; Penadés, José R.; Lasa Uzcudun, Íñigo Upna Orcid; Valle Turrillas, Jaione Upna Orcid (Public Library of Science, 2016)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Major components of the biofilm matrix scaffold are proteins that assemble to create a unified structure that maintain bacteria attached to each other and to surfaces. We provide evidence that a surface protein present in ...
    • Study of the molecular mechanisms underlying Bap-mediated cell-cell interactions in Staphylococcus aureus 

      Taglialegna, Agustina Upna (2016)   Tesis doctoral / Doktoretza tesia  OpenAccess
      La mayoría de los microorganismos son capaces de vivir en comunidades sésiles, siendo esta forma de crecimiento bastante más frecuente que la forma de vida planctónica. En estas comunidades microbianas, conocidas como ...
