  1. 1. Human copper ion transfer : from metal chaperone to target transporter domain

    Author : Moritz Sebastian Niemiec; Pernilla Wittung-Stafshede; Nigel Robinson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; copper homeostasis; copper chaperone; Atox1; ATP7B; Wilson disease protein; metal transport; size exclusion chromatography; thermodynamics; isothermal calorimetry;

    Abstract : Many processes in living systems occur through transient interactions among proteins. Those interactions are often weak and are driven by small changes in free energy. READ MORE

  2. 2. Selective transfer hydrogenations : Catalyst development and mechanistic investigations

    Author : Jenny Wettergren; Hans Adolfsson; Serafino Gladiali; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; asymmetric catalysis; transfer hydrogenation; transition metal; amino acids; amino alcohols; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry; organisk kemi;

    Abstract : By generating a library of amino acid-based ligands, pseudo-dipeptides, and combining them with transition metals, we have created selective and efficient ruthenium and rhodium catalysts for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones. The ruthenium-catalyzed reaction was studied in detail, and we found that alkali metals play a crucial role for the reactivity and selectivity of the reaction. READ MORE

  3. 3. Active Transport of Ions across Biomembranes : A Kinetic Study of Cytochrome c Oxidase Reconstituted into Phospholipid Vesicles

    Author : Kristina Faxén; Peter Brzezinski; Pia Ädelroth; Thomas E. DeCoursey; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cytochrome c oxidase; electron transfer; proton transfer; proton pumping; kinetic isotop effect; ion pumping; flow flash; Biochemistry; Biokemi; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Ion transport across membranes is of uttermost importance for us. It is the foundation for signaling of various kinds e.g. in the nerve-system. READ MORE

  4. 4. Femtosecond Dynamics and Photochemistry in Solution

    Author : Marcus Rasmusson; Kemisk fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Kemi; Chemistry; cross-correlation function; chloroiodomethane; dihalides; bromobenzene; ion pairs; solvation; vibrational relaxation; charge-transfer; tetranitromethane; electron transfer; femtosecond spectroscopy; dissociation; Photochemistry; Fotokemi; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi;

    Abstract : The reaction dynamics of several polyatomic systems have been investigated in solution by femtosecond spectroscopy. Tetranitromethane-naphtalene complexes excited in the charge-transfer band at 400 nm undergo dissociative electron transfer, resulting in three primary products: [naphthalene].+, NO2 and C(NO2)3-.

  5. 5. Electron-transfer processes in fast ion-atom collisions

    Author : Kristian Støchkel; Henning Schmidt; Henrik Cederquist; Andreas Wolf; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Electron transfer processes fast ion atom collisions hydrogen helium; Atomic and molecular physics; Atom- och molekylfysik;

    Abstract : The subject of this thesis is experimental studies of electron-transfer processes in ion-atom collisions at velocities significantly higher than typical orbital velocities of electrons in bound states of atoms or molecules. The experimental technique applied combines the high beam intensity of heavy-ion storage rings with a supersonic gas-jet target equipped with a recoil-ion-momentum spectrometer. READ MORE
