  1. 11. The evolution of respiratory chain complex I from smaller functional modules

    Author : Vamsi Moparthi; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hyf; Hyc; Membrane bound hydrogenases; NADH:quinone oxidoreductase; Mrp antiporter; 16S rRNA;

    Abstract : NADH:quinone oxidoreductase, or complex I, is a large membrane bound enzyme in the respiratory chain of living organisms, that has evolved from the combination of smaller functional building blocks. The enzyme has a conserved core structure, comprising 14 protein subunits: Seven subunits protrude from the membrane and contain a flavin and eight iron-sulfur clusters. READ MORE

  2. 12. Exploration of bacteria associated with Anopheles mosquitoes around the world : For the prevention of transmission of malaria

    Author : Louise K. J. Nilsson; Olle Terenius; Staffan Svärd; Sebastian Håkansson; Michael Strand; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microbiota; microbiome; vector-borne disease; 16S rRNA gene; amplicon sequencing; Biologi med inriktning mot mikrobiologi; Biology with specialization in Microbiology;

    Abstract : Every year, hundreds of thousands of people die from malaria. Malaria is a disease caused by parasites, which are spread by female vector mosquitoes of the genus Anopheles. Current control measures against malaria are based on drugs against the parasites and vector control using insecticides. READ MORE

  3. 13. Ecology and evolution of coastal Baltic Sea 'dead zone' sediments

    Author : Elias Broman; Mark Dopson; Nils Risgaard-Petersen; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Baltic Sea; sediment; oxygen; metatranscriptomics; metagenomics; 16S rRNA gene; RNA-seq; dead zone; re-oxygenation; Akvatisk ekologi; Aquatic Ecology;

    Abstract : Since industrialization and the release of agricultural fertilizers began, coastal and open waters of the Baltic Sea have been loaded with nutrients. This has increased the growth of algal blooms and because a portion of the algal organic matter sinks to the sea floor, hypoxia has increased. READ MORE

  4. 14. Studies on the functional interaction of translation initiation factor IF1 with ribosomal RNA

    Author : Jaroslav Belotserkovsky; Leif Isaksson; Diarmaid Hughes; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Escherichia coli; ribosome; rRNA mutation; molekylärgenetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Abstract : Translation initiation factor IF1 is a small, essential and ubiquitous protein factor encoded by a single infA gene in bacteria. Although several important functions have been attributed to IF1, the precise reason for its indispensability is yet to be defined. READ MORE

  5. 15. Accessory factors for ribosomal assembly

    Author : Mattias Lövgren; Mikael Wikström; Dan Andersson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular biology; RimM; RbfA; RlmB; ribosomal assembly; rRNA processing; Molekylärbiologi; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : The assembly of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and ribosomal proteins (r-proteins) into ribosomal subunits (30S and 50S) is a complex process. Transcription of rRNA requires antitermination proteins and the primary transcripts are processed by ribonucleases. READ MORE
