  2. 1. Functional aspects of inorganic phosphate transport

    Author : Michael R. Andersson; Bengt Persson; Jan Willem de Gier; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phosphate membrane transport mutagenesis saccharomyces cerevisae; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Inorganic phosphate is an essential nutrient for all organisms. It is required for many cellular components as nucleic acids and phospholipids, and as energy-carrying compounds such as ATP. Thus, a regulated uptake of this pivotal nutrient is of outermost importance. READ MORE

  4. 2. Regulatory and Structural Properties of the High-Affinity Phosphate Acquisition System in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Author : Jens Lagerstedt; Bengt L. Persson; Joseph W. DePierre; Peter J. Henderson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Abstract : Inorganic phosphate is an essential nutrient required for the synthesis of many cellular components (e.g., nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and sugars), as well as for meeting metabolic needs (e.g. READ MORE

  5. 3. Physiological regulation of the high-affinity phosphate uptake system in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Author : Johanna Pattison-Granberg; Bengt Persson; Morten Kielland-Brandt; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Abstract : Yeast cells can be found in a wide variety of environments, demonstrating that these cells are capable of adapting to changes in the external milieu. Inorganic phosphate (Pi) is an essential nutrient for all organisms and Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells take up phosphate from the external environment via two different systems, i.e. READ MORE

  6. 4. Selenium Compounds in Milk. Studies of Selenoproteins, Selenium Enrichment and Oxidative Stability of Food

    Author : Tien Hoac; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metabolism; Biokemi; Metabolism; Biochemistry; Naturvetenskap; Natural science; Copper; Zinc; Oxidative stability; Thioredoxin reductase; Glutathione peroxidase; Selenoproteins; Milk; Selenium supplementation; Technological sciences; Teknik;

    Abstract : Selenium is an essential nutrient and in animals and humans it can either be specifically incorporated into proteins as selenocysteine or randomly as selenomethionine. It can also occur as low-molecular-weight compounds and the form of selenium in foods may also influence food quality. READ MORE

  7. 5. Regulation of assembly and cell surface dynamics of caveolae

    Author : Jagan Mohan; Richard Lundmark; Oleg Shupliakov; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Abstract : A typical mammalian cell plasma membrane displays a high level of plasticity counter balanced with stability. The plasma membrane show various kinds of invaginations to meet physiological demands of the cells such as nutrient uptake, receptor signaling etc. An example of one such invagination observed in many cell types is “Caveola”.
