    Abstract : Synthesis of proteins is performed by the ribosome, a large ribonucleoprotein complex. Apart from the ribosome, numerous protein factors participate in this process. Elongation factor 2 (eEF2) is one of these factors. eEF2 is an essential protein with a mol. READ MORE

  5. 3. Ribosomal proteins L5, L15 and elongation factor 2, three vital components of the translation machinery : Functional features of RPL5, RPL15 and EF2 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae studied in vivo

    Author : Hossein Moradi; Roger Karlsson; Odd Nygård; Anders Liljas; Stockholms universitet; []

    Abstract : Protein synthesis is an essential, energy consuming and tightly regulated process in all living cells. A central core of the cellular protein-factory is a macromolecule called ribosome. Ribosomes are composed of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and proteins (RPs). Additional components such as elongation factors (EFs) also contribute to this process. READ MORE

  6. 4. Responses of fibroblasts and chondrosarcoma cells to mechanical and chemical stimuli

    Author : Juha Piltti; Mikko Lammi; Jukka Häyrinen; Frank Beier; Umeå universitet; []

    Abstract : Osteoarthritis is an inflammation-related disease that progressively destroys joint cartilage. This disease causes pain and stiffness of the joints, and at advanced stages, limitations to the movement or bending of injured joints. Therefore, it often restricts daily activities and the ability to work. READ MORE

  7. 5. Elucidating Genetic and Biochemical Aspects of the P1 and Sda Carbohydrate Histo-Blood Group Antigens

    Author : Linn Stenfelt; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Blood Group; P1 antigen; Sda antigen; A4GALT; B3GALNT2; glycosyltransferase; red blood cell; transfusion medicine;

    Abstract : Human histo-blood groups are inherited polymorphic variants that occur in the molecular structures on the humanred blood cell (RBC) surface. Introducing foreign RBCs into a recipient lacking an antigen may activate the humoraldefence leading to a hemolytic transfusion reaction. READ MORE
