  1. 1. Amelioration of Horizontally Transferred Genes

    Author : Torbjörn Karfunkel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; transposoner; horisontell genöverföring; dna; bakterier; plasmider;

    Abstract : The importance of Horizontal (Lateral) Gene Transfer has attracted much attention during the last few decades. It is a very important factor in bacterial evolution and ecology, and it has great implications on human life as well. READ MORE

  2. 2. Plant Major Intrinsic Proteins - natural variation and evolution

    Author : Jonas Danielson; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MIP; aquaporin; plant; natural variation; evolution; Arabidopsis; Physcomitrella patens; NIP; XIP;

    Abstract : Major Intrinsic Proteins (MIPs, also called Aquaporins, AQPs) are channel forming membrane proteins. Although initially functionally characterized and named after their water channeling property in human red blood cells, it has become increasingly evident that MIPs are present in all types of organisms and transport a variety of small, uncharged molecules besides water.

  3. 3. Evolution of Yeast Respiro-Fermentative Lifestyle and the Underlying Mechanisms Behind Aerobic Fermentation

    Author : Arne Hagman; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Crabtree effect; aerobic fermentation; respiro-fermentation; ethanol production; yeast; central carbon metabolism; evolution of alternative lifestyles;

    Abstract : Under aerobic conditions, most yeasts such as Kluyveromyces lactis, prefer the respiratory pathway and some, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae prefer less energy efficient fermentative pathway for their energy metabolism. These two metabolic strategies are also known as Crabtree negative and Crabtree positive respectively, and the evolution of the latter has lately been explained by the “make-accumulate-consume” life strategy.

  4. 4. Structural and Functional Studies on Evolutionary Repurposing of H-box/NC-proteins : From Host Factor to Virus Protein

    Author : Anna Wehlin; Eleonore von Castelmur; Per Hammarström; Maria Sunnerhagen; Lars-Göran Mårtensson; Lars-Anders Carlson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The Picornaviridae are a large family of biomedically important viruses causing diseases such as the common cold, hepatitis A and polio in humans and foot-and-mouth disease in cattle. These diseases have great impact on people’s everyday life and cause economical losses all around the world. To date, no antiviral treatments are available. READ MORE
