  2. 1. Human intestinal alkaline phosphatase : tissue expression and serum levels

    Author : Ulla Domar; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Human alkaline phosphatase; intestinal alkaline phosphatase; blood; blood group; lipid; monoclonal antibody; immunohistochemistry; liver; kidney; pancreas; liver disease; inflammatory bowel disease;

    Abstract : Human alkaline phosphatase (ALP) comprises four isozymes, viz liver/bone/ kidney or tissue unspecific (AP), intestinal (LAP), placental (PLAP) and germ cell or PLAP-like alkaline phosphatase, with their main expression in specific tissues as indicated by their names. The isozymes are coded by different genes, but they are closely related, with more than 50% amino acid sequence homologies. READ MORE

  4. 2. Studies in alkaline phosphatase : incorporation of phosphate from inorganic phosphate and glucose 6-phosphate, and mechanisms of action of the enzyme

    Author : Lorentz Engström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : .... READ MORE

  5. 3. Promiscuity and Selectivity in Phosphoryl Transferases

    Author : Alexandre Barrozo; Shina Kamerlin; Qiang Cui; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phosphate chemistry; linear free energy relationships; phosphatase; catalytic promiscuity; empirical valence bond approach; alkaline phosphatase;

    Abstract : Phosphoryl transfers are essential chemical reactions in key life processes, including energy production, signal transduction and protein synthesis. They are known for having extremely low reaction rates in aqueous solution, reaching the scale of millions of years. READ MORE

  6. 4. Human Bone Alkaline Phosphatase Isoforms

    Author : Per Magnusson; Markku T. Parviainen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Determination of serum total alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is frequently requested in clinical routine, mostly to estimate skeletal and hepatobiliary status. In this respect, clarification of the various ALP isoenzymes and isoforms contributing to the total ALP activity could be valuable in daily medical decision making. READ MORE

  7. 5. The Ecophysiology of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi: Phosphatase Activity Associated with Extraradical and Intraradical Mycelium

    Author : Ingrid van Aarle; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ekologi; Ecology; mykologi; virologi; bakteriologi; Mikrobiologi; mycology; virology; bacteriology; Microbiology; Scutellospora; polyphosphate; phosphorus uptake; phosphorus transfer; phosphatase; pH; mycelium; Glomus; fatty acid; Gigaspora; arbuscular mycorrhiza; ELF;

    Abstract : Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi colonise a wide range of plant species and are especially common in soils with a relatively high pH, where phosphorus availability is a limiting factor for primary production. The aim of this thesis was to study the ecophysiology of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi when exposed to different environments. READ MORE
