  2. 1. Heme Protein Biogenesis - Catalase in Enterococcus faecalis

    Author : Michael Baureder; Molekylär cellbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Enterococcus faecalis; heme proteins; protein assembly; oxidative stress; catalase; cytochrome;

    Abstract : Heme proteins form a large and diverse group of proteins which are involved in a variety of biological functions. The heme prosthetic group enables them to carry out redox reactions, transport electrons, bind gaseous molecules, and function as sensors. Despite their importance only little is generally known about heme protein biogenesis. READ MORE

  4. 2. Hemoproteins of Enterococcus faecalis

    Author : Lena Frankenberg; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Växtekologi; heme Enterococcus faecalis enterococci catalase cytochrome; Plant ecology;

    Abstract : The gram-positive bacterium Enterococcus faecalis is a commensal organism, often found in the gut of humans and other animals. It can cause opportunistic disease and it frequently causes nosocomial infections. Treatment of such infections is often impaired by this organisms broad intrinsic and acquired resistance to antibiotics. E. READ MORE

  5. 3. Perspectives on urban wastewater as a source of microbial pollution

    Author : Stina-Mina Ehn Börjesson; Ann-Sofi Rehnstam-Holm; Betty Collin; Högskolan Kristianstad; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; Wastewater; Mallards; Anas platyrhynchos; E. faecium; E. faecalis; Campylobacter jejuni; Vibrio parahaemolyticus;

    Abstract : Wastewater treatment plants are important links for dissemination of intestinal bacteria into surface waters. In this study, twelve mallards were exposed to treated wastewater for a period of 55 days. Faecal samples were collected and analysed for Enterococcus spp. and C. READ MORE

  7. 5. Nanoscopic adventures : unraveling macromolecular complexes in infectious diseases via integrative structural biology

    Author : Kai Patric Ehrenbolger; Ronnie Berntsson; Felipe Cava; Jonas Barandun; David Drew; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Infectious diseases; E. faecalis; Microsporidia; Ribosome; Proteasome; Polar Tube; Structural Biology; Single particle Cryo-Electron Microscopy;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms of infectious diseases, which claim nearly 9 million lives annually. The research centers on critical analysis of pathogen mechanisms and drug resistance. I have mainly focused on two clades of pathogens: Enterococcus faecalis and microsporidia. E. READ MORE
