  2. 1. The Role of Proteases in Plant Development

    Author : Maribel Garcia-Lorenzo; Christiane Funk; Zach Adam; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Comparative genomics; protease; PCD; leaf senescence; FtsH; Arabidopsis; Populus; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Abstract : Proteases play key roles in plants, maintaining strict protein quality control and degrading specific sets of proteins in response to diverse environmental and developmental stimuli. Similarities and differences between the proteases expressed in different species may give valuable insights into their physiological roles and evolution. READ MORE

  4. 2. From sequence to function : Comparative studies of insect olfactory receptors

    Author : Xiaoqing Hou; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Olfactory receptor; Heterologous expression; Pheromone; Plant volatile; Insect;

    Abstract : In insects airborne odors are detected by the odorant receptors (ORs) and ionotropic receptors (IRs), located on the dendritic membrane of the olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) housed in olfactory sensilla. The OR and IR gene families show high plasticity in lineage expansion and contraction following the birth-and-death evolutionary model. READ MORE

  5. 3. Evolution and transcriptional regulation of Kindlins

    Author : Ammad Khan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Kindlins are relatively newly discovered focal adhesion proteins. The Kindlin family includes three highly conserved proteins: Kindlin-1, Kindlin-2 and Kindlin-3. All three Kindlins have been shown to interact with Integrin and this interaction plays important role in the functional properties of Kindlins. READ MORE
