  1. 1. Protein complexes : assembly, structure and function

    Author : Kristina Wilhelm; Ludmilla Ludmilla Morozova-Roche; Catharina Svanborg; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : HAMLET; ELOA; lysozyme; amyloid; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Abstract :  Most proteins must fold into their native conformations to fulfil their biological functions. Failure of proteins to fold leads to cell pathology and a broad range of human diseases referred to as protein misfolding disease, e.g., Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and type II diabetes.

  2. 2. Specific signaling through heteromeric PDGF receptor complexes

    Author : Simon Ekman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; molekylär cellbiologi; Molecular Cellbiology;

    Abstract : Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a potent mitogen and chemoattractant for mesenchymal cells and exert its effect by binding to two structurally related receptor tyrosine kinases, denoted α- and β-receptors. PDGF binding induces dimerization of its receptors, both homo-and heterodimerization, leading to their autophosphorylation on tyrosine residues and binding of downstream signaling molecules.

  3. 3. Modern Icelandic Word Formation

    Author : Yair Sapir; Henrik Williams; Raimo Raag; Veturliði Óskarsson; Gunlög Josefsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Icelandic language; Icelandic; Scandinavian; word formation; morphology; neologisms; calque; language planning; language contact; linguistic purism; Isländska; Scandinavian languages; Nordiska språk;

    Abstract : Icelandic is known for its conservative word formation, largely involving native sources. The main focus of the present research is to describe which mechanisms are used in forming words in Modern Icelandic. Furthermore, a postulated additional category within Icelandic complexes, introduced here under the label compilations, is examined. READ MORE

  4. 4. Specific Precipitation of Biomolecules Using Synthetic Polymers

    Author : Per-Olof Wahlund; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biotechnology; Polymerteknik; RNA; plasmid DNA; DNA; polyelectrolyte complexes; synthetic polymers; precipitation; affinity precipotation; Bioteknik; Polymer technology; biopolymers;

    Abstract : Purification is a very important stage in biotechnological processes. The traditionally used precipitation techniques are generally nonspecific and thus one or more chromatographic steps are normally required. There is thus a need for new approaches to improve existing techniques. READ MORE

  5. 5. Synthesis of Nanoparticles and Organometallic Complexes for Gas Sensing

    Author : Alicja Stolas; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nanocube; LSPR; alloys; colloidal synthesis; organic synthesis; phthalocyanine complexes; gas sensing.; stabilizers; palladium; nanoparticles; phthalocyanine; nanocomposites; gold;

    Abstract : Currently metal nanoparticles (NPs) are a subject of interest regarding many applications, in particular chemical gas sensing, as the associated environmental issues are of substantial importance. Metal NPs are attractive due to their fascinating optical properties and primarily, localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) which strongly depends on size and shape of NPs. READ MORE
