El objetivo principal de esta Tesis es desarrollar una metodología que permita proporcionar nuevos usos de Desarrollo Sostenible en las vías pecuarias, basados en parámetros naturales y el marco legal existente. En el Capítulo primero titulado LEGISLACIÓN. MARCO EUROPEO, NACIONAL Y AUTÓMICO DE VÍAS PECUARIAS Y DESARROLLO SOSTENIBLE, se ha estudiado el estado actual de las políticas de nuestra comunidad autónoma, nacional y europeas, sobre vías pecuarias. Centrándonos en materias medioambientales, agrarias y de patrimonio cultural. Empezando por la política medioambiental sobre medio natural: cabe destacar la Directiva Hábitats(92/43 CEE) que se desarrolló para empezar a proteger a 220 hábitats y aproximadamente 1000 especies listadas en las directivas Anexas (Anexo I cubre hábitats, Anexos II, IV & V especies) y la Directiva Aves (más formalmente conocida como la Directiva 2009/147/CE del Parlamento Europeo y del Consejo de 30 de noviembre de 2009 relativa a la conservación de las aves silvestres) de la Unión Europea adoptada en el año 2009. Esta última reemplaza a la Directiva 79/409/CEE del Consejo, de 2 de abril de 1979, relativa a la conservación de las aves silvestres, modificada en varias ocasiones y de forma sustancial, por lo que, en aras de la claridad, se consideró conveniente proceder a la codificación de dicha Directiva en el año 20091. En cuanto a la política medioambiental sobre Paisaje hay que destacar el Convenio Europeo del Paisaje auspiciado por el Consejo de Europa, (Florencia, octubre de 2000), y ratificado por España, entrando en vigor el 1 de marzo de 2008, que pretende cambiar la forma de abordar el paisaje para otorgarle el protagonismo de eje estructural del territorio, huella del patrimonio natural y cultural de un país, sobre el que se desarrollan las actividades económicas.

Isoprostanes (iPs) are free radical catalyzed prostaglandin isomers. Analysis of individual isomers of PGF2α—F2-iPs—in urine has reflected lipid peroxidation in humans. However, up to 64 F2-iPs may be formed, and it is unknown whether coordinate generation, disposition, and excretion of F2-iPs occurs in humans. To address this issue, we developed methods to measure individual members of the four structural classes of F2-iPs, using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS), in which sample preparation is minimized. Authentic standards of F2-iPs of classes III, IV, V, and VI were used to identify class-specific ions for multiple reaction monitoring. Using iPF2α-VI as a model compound, we demonstrated the reproducibility of the assay in human urine. Urinary levels of all F2-iPs measured were elevated in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia. However, only three of eight F2-iPs were elevated in patients with congestive heart failure, compared with controls. Paired analyses by GC/MS and LC/MS/MS of iPF2α-VI in hypercholesterolemia and of 8,12-iso-iPF2α-VI in congestive heart failure were highly correlated. This approach will permit high throughput analysis of multiple iPs in human disease.

Surface glycosylation of endothelial cells is relevant to various processes including coagulation, inflammation, metastasis, and lymphocyte homing. One of the essential sugars involved in these processes is fucose linked α1→3 to N-acetylglucosamine. A family of α1,3-fucosyltransferases (FucTs) called FucT-III, IV, V, VI, VII, and IX is able to catalyze such fucosylations. Reverse transcription–PCR analysis revealed that human umbilical vein endothelial cells express all of the FucTs except FucT-IX. The predominant activity, as inferred by acceptor specificity of enzyme activity in cell lysates, is compatible with the presence of FucT-VI. By using an antibody to recombinant soluble FucT-VI, the enzyme colocalized with β4-galactosyltransferase-1 to the Golgi apparatus. By using a polyclonal antiserum raised against a 17-aa peptide of the variable (stem) region of the FucT-VI, immunocytochemical staining of FucT-VI was restricted to Weibel–Palade bodies, as determined by colocalization with P-selectin and von Willebrand factor. SDS/PAGE immunoblotting and amino acid sequencing of internal peptides confirmed the identity of the antigen isolated by the peptide-specific antibody as FucT-VI. Storage of a fucosyltransferase in Weibel–Palade bodies suggests a function independent of Golgi-associated glycosylation.

Sugar transport by some permeases in Escherichia coli is allosterically regulated by the phosphorylation state of the intracellular regulatory protein, enzyme IIAglc of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system. A sensitive radiochemical assay for the interaction of enzyme IIAglc with membrane-associated lactose permease was used to characterize the binding reaction. The binding is stimulated by transportable substrates such as lactose, melibiose, and raffinose, but not by sugars that are not transported (maltose and sucrose). Treatment of lactose permease with N-ethylmaleimide, which blocks ligand binding and transport by alkylating Cys-148, also blocks enzyme IIAglc binding. Preincubation with the substrate analog β-d-galactopyranosyl 1-thio-β-d-galactopyranoside protects both lactose transport and enzyme IIAglc binding against inhibition by N-ethylmaleimide. A collection of lactose permease replacement mutants at Cys-148 showed, with the exception of C148V, a good correlation of relative transport activity and enzyme IIAglc binding. The nature of the interaction of enzyme IIAglc with the cytoplasmic face of lactose permease was explored. The N- and C-termini, as well as five hydrophilic loops in the permease, are exposed on the cytoplasmic surface of the membrane and it has been proposed that the central cytoplasmic loop of lactose permease is the major determinant for interaction with enzyme IIAglc. Lactose permease mutants with polyhistidine insertions in cytoplasmic loops IV/V and VI/VII and periplasmic loop VII/VIII retain transport activity and therefore substrate binding, but do not bind enzyme IIAglc, indicating that these regions of lactose permease may be involved in recognition of enzyme IIAglc. Taken together, these results suggest that interaction of lactose permease with substrate promotes a conformational change that brings several cytoplasmic loops into an arrangement optimal for interaction with the regulatory protein, enzyme IIAglc. A topological map of the proposed interaction is presented.

L’obiettivo di questo studio è la valultazione della funzionalità ecologica del fiume Segura nella provincia di Alicante (Spagna) mediante l’applicazione dell’IFF (Indice di Funzionalità Fluviale). La motivazione di questa scelta è stata la volontà di partecipare all’introduzione di questo indice in Spagna, paese in cui non è abitualmente utilizzato. Sono stati valutati 24006 m di corso d’acqua suddivisi in 24 tratti di varie lunghezze, partendo dall’uscita del centro urbano di Orihuela fi no al centro abitato di Guardamar del Segura. Il giudizio della funzionalità del fiume complessivamente rientra nell’intervallo dei livelli da V a III-IV, con una percentuale maggiore dell’80% di livello IV sia per la sponda destra che per la sinistra. L’applicazione dell’Indice ha permesso non solo di valutare la funzionalità dei 24 tratti, ma anche di individuare i parametri più degradati del corso d’acqua e i parametri più «forti», dall’osservazione dei quali è possibile far partire un lavoro di ripristino ambientale e rinaturalizzazione del fiume.
