  2. 1. Membrane-mimetic systems : Novel methods and results from studies of respiratory enzymes

    Author : Gustav Nordlund; Peter Brzezinski; Joachim Heberle; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lipids; membrane proteins; method development; respiration; reconstitution; supported membranes; SNAREs; liposome fusion; lipid-protein interactions; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : The processes localized to biological membranes are of great interest, both from a scientific and pharmaceutical point of view. Understanding aspects such as the detailed mechanism and regulation of these processes requires investigation of the structure and function of the membrane-bound proteins in which they take place.

  4. 2. Systemic RNAi Relies on the Endomembrane System in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Author : Yani Zhao; Andrea Hinas; Staffan Svärd; Simon Tuck; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Systemic RNAi; RNAi inheritance; late endosomes MVBs; SID-5; SEC-22; SYX-6; C12D8.1; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : The membrane system of a eukaryotic cell is a large and complex system handling the transport, exchange and degradation of many kinds of material. Recent research shows that double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) mediated gene silencing (RNA interference) is a membrane related process. READ MORE

  5. 3. Connecting Systemic RNAi to the Endomembrane System in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Author : Benjamin T. Holmgren; Andrea Hinas; Gerhart Wagner; Peter Brodersen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Systemic RNAi; RNAi inheritance; Endomembrane system; Late endosome; SID-5; SEC-22; SYX-6; C12D8.1; RNA; Biology with specialization in Molecular Cell Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär cellbiologi;

    Abstract : RNA interference (RNAi) is a gene regulation mechanism conserved among eukaryotes. To silence gene expression, RNAi relies on a short single-stranded guide RNA to steer the RNA-induced Silencing Complex (RISC) to mRNAs with guide strand-complementary sequences. RNAi is a highly membrane-associated process. READ MORE
