  1. 1. Design, Development and Applications of Highly Sensitive Protein-Based Capacitive Biosensors

    Author : Ibolya Bontidean; Kemiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bioteknik; Biotechnology; Contaminated soil; Heavy metals; Lac repressor; Phytochelatin; MerP; MerR; SmtA; Self-assembled monolayer; Biosensor; Capacitance;

    Abstract : Highly sensitive biosensors were developed for environmental and medical applications. The biosensors were based on bioengineered proteins as biorecognition elements coupled to a highly sensitive capacitive transducer. READ MORE

  2. 2. Orientational dynamics of single molecules applied to protein-DNA target search

    Author : Emil Marklund; Johan Elf; Erwin Peterman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; single molecule imaging; fluorescence correlation spectroscopy; gene regulation; transcription factor; lac operon;

    Abstract : Cells in all life forms regulate their genes with the help of transcription factors (TFs). These proteins turn genes on or off by binding regulatory motifs present in the DNA. Before this binding can occur, a TF needs to search and find the specific binding site in the genome of the cell. READ MORE

  3. 3. Splice site selection in Saccharomyces cerevisiae pre-mRNA splicing

    Author : B G Mattias Luukkonen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Pre-mRNA splicing is the process by which intervening sequences (introns) are removed from the coding sequences (exons) resulting in a mature messenger-RNA (mRNA). Splicing takes place in a large ribonucleoprotein complex termed the spliceosome, composed of several protein components and the five small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) U I, U2, U4, U5 and U6. READ MORE
