    Abstract : The central nervous system (CNS) is the most complex organ in the body, responsible for complex functions, including thinking, reasoning and memory. The CNS contains cells of many different types, often generated in vast numbers. READ MORE

  2. 2. Characterization of conjugated protease inhibitors

    Author : Erika Billinger; Gunnar Johansson; Boris Turk; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Serine protease inhibitors; conjugation; immobilization; leupeptin analogues; potato serine protease inhibitor; soluble carriers; inorganic carriers.; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : The overall theme of this thesis is a step by step approach for the design and characterization of conjugated protease inhibitors. This involves both a new assay method for protease activity and protease inhibition (paper I), a study of the stoichiometry for protease inhibitor interaction (paper II), design of inhibitory peptides (paper IV) and the construction of inhibitor conjugates (paper III & IV).

    Abstract : Many cyanobacteria are reported to produce the nonprotein amino acid β-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA). Cyanobacteria are extensively distributed in terrestrial and aquatic environments and recently BMAA was detected in temperate aquatic ecosystems, e.g. the Baltic Sea. READ MORE

  5. 5. Increased resilience in managed boreal forests : Controlling damage by spruce bark beetle and moose in Sweden

    Author : Matilda Lindmark; Bengt-Gunnar Jonsson; Erika Wallin; Jan-Olov Weslien; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Most of the forests growing in Europe today have been planted, or heavily affected, by humans. This is because the forest industry provides crucial raw materials for diverse products, including timber, pulp and paper, cellulose-based substances and renewable energy sources. READ MORE
