    Las reglas de imputación en cuanto a la responsabilidad del superior que emplea el Estatuto de Roma en su artículo 28, al ser estas desarrolladas en forma extrema, vulneran de alguna manera los principios fundamentales del derecho penal (common Law) específicamente los principios de legalidad y culpabilidad al no ser este un sistema de imputación más concreto en la legitimidad de la pena.The rules of imputation as for the responsibility of the Superior that it uses the Statute of Rome in his article 28, to the being you are developed in extreme form, they damage somehow the fundamental principles of the criminal law (common Law) specifically the beginning of legality and guilt is not this a concrete system of imputation in legitimacy of the sentence

    Laccase Production from <i>Agrocybe pediades</i>: Purification and Functional Characterization of a Consistent Laccase Isoenzyme in Liquid Culture

    Laccases are valuable enzymes as an excellent ecological alternative for bioremediation issues because they can oxidize persistent xenobiotic compounds. The production and characterization of extracellular laccases from saprotrophic fungi from disturbed environments have been scarcely explored, even though this could diversify their functional characteristics and expand the conditions in which they carry out their catalysis. Agrocybe pediades, isolated from a disturbed forest, produces an extracellular laccase in liquid culture. The enzyme was purified, identified and characterized. Copper and hexachlorobenzene do not function as inducers for the laccase produced. Partial amino acid sequences were obtained by LC-MS/MS that share similarity with laccases from other fungi. Purified laccase is a monomer with a molecular mass between 55–60 kDa and had an optimum activity at pH 5.0 and the optimum temperature at 45 °C using 2,6-dimethoxyphenol (2,6-DMP) as substrate. The Km and Vmax also determined with 2,6-DMP were 100 μM and 285 μmol∙min−1∙mg−1, respectively, showing that the laccase of A. pediades has a higher affinity for this substrate than that of other Agaricales. These features could provide a potential catalyst for different toxic substrates and in the future laccase could be used in environmental recovery processes

    Silencing of the Laccase (<i>lacc2</i>) Gene from <i>Pleurotus ostreatus</i> Causes Important Effects on the Formation of Toxocyst-like Structures and Fruiting Body

    A wide variety of biological functions, including those involved in the morphogenesis process of basidiomycete fungi, have been attributed to laccase enzymes. In this work, RNA interference (RNAi) was used to evaluate the role of the laccase (lacc2) gene of Pleurotus ostreatus PoB. Previously, transformant strains of P. ostreatus were obtained and according to their level of silencing they were classified as light (T7), medium (T21) or severe (T26 and T27). The attenuation of the lacc2 gene in these transformants was determined by RT-PCR. Silencing of lacc2 resulted in a decrease in laccase activity between 30 and 55%, which depended on the level of laccase expression achieved. The silenced strains (T21, T26, and T27) displayed a delay in the development of mycelium on potato dextrose agar (PDA) medium, whereas in the cultures grown on wheat straw, we found that these strains were incapable of producing aerial mycelium, primordia, and fruiting bodies. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed the presence of toxocyst-like structures. The highest abundance of these structures was observed in the wild-type (PoB) and T7 strains. However, the abundance of toxocysts decreased in the T21 and T26 strains, and in T27 they were not detected. These results suggest that the presence and abundance of toxocyst-like structures are directly related to the development of fruiting bodies. Furthermore, our data confirm that lacc2 is involved in the morphogenesis process of P. ostreatus
