    Author : Dinesh Kumar; Andrei Chabes; Britt-Marie Sjöberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : ribonucleotide reductase; dNTP pools; s-phase checkpoint; mutagenesis; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Abstract : From microscopic bacteria to the giant whale, every single living organism on Earth uses the same language of life: DNA. Deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates––dNTPs (dATP, dTTP, dGTP, and dCTP)––are the building blocks of DNA and are therefore the “alphabet of life”. READ MORE

    Abstract : Streptococcus pyogenes is a common human pathogen causing mild infections such as tonsillitis and pharyngitis, but is also the cause of life-threatening conditions. To be able to infect the human host, S. pyogenes express different virulence factors. The surface-expressed M protein is a major virulence factor of S. READ MORE
