  2. 1. Conformational Dynamics of Rhodopsins Visualized by Time-resolved Wide Angle X-ray Scattering

    Author : Erik Malmerberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Time-resolved wide Angle X-ray Scattering; Retinylidene proteins; Rhodopsin; Bacteriorhodopsin; Proteorhodopsin;

    Abstract : Rhodopsins are a family of light-sensitive proteins found in the cellular membranes of a wide range of living organisms. These membrane proteins share a common molecular architecture and are able to use light energy to perform a variety of different biological functions. READ MORE

  4. 2. Time Resolved Diffraction Studies of Structural Changes in Sensory Rhodopsin

    Author : Robert Bosman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Rhodopsin; SRII; SRII-HtrII; Time-resolved crystallography; Time-resolved wide angle x-ray scattering; TR-X; TR-WAXS; Serial crystallography;

    Abstract : Responding to different light conditions is an essential process for many organisms on earth. Unicellular organisms are no exception to this and mechanisms for controlling cellular movement must often be sensitive to light. READ MORE

  5. 3. X-ray free-electron laser based methods for structural and ultrafast dynamics studies of a photosynthetic reaction centre

    Author : David Arnlund; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; WAXS; wide-angle x-ray scattering; XFEL; x-ray free-electron laser; reaction center; structural biology; ultrafast dynamics;

    Abstract : Life on earth is fuelled by the energy of sunlight, which must first be captured and converted into a chemical energy form useful to the cell. This process is known as photosynthesis and the major pathway of this energy conversion is via photosynthetic reaction centres. READ MORE

  6. 4. Assembly and alignment in cellulose nanomaterial-based composite dispersions and thermally insulating foams

    Author : Pierre Munier; Lennart Bergström; Aji Mathew; Steve Eichhorn; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cellulose nanomaterials; composites; assembly; alignment; x-ray scattering; foams; thermal insulation; mechanical strengthening; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : Research on nanoparticles extracted from renewable and highly available sources is motivated by both the development of functional nanomaterials and the drive to replace widely used materials based on fossil resources. In particular, cellulose, in the form of cellulose nanomaterials (CNM), has attracted increased attention for the development of sustainable and high performance products, thanks to properties that include high specific mechanical strength, chemical versatility and anisotropic thermal conductivity.

  7. 5. Crystallization on the Mesoscale : Self-Assembly of Iron Oxide Nanocubes into Mesocrystals

    Author : Michael Agthe; Lennart Bergström; German Salazar-Alvarez; Tommy Nylander; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Self-assembly; iron oxide nanocubes; mesocrystal; small angle X-ray scattering; video microscopy; QCM-D; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : Self-assembly of nanoparticles is a promising route to form complex, nanostructured materials with functional properties. Nanoparticle assemblies characterized by a crystallographic alignment of the nanoparticles on the atomic scale, i.e. mesocrystals, are commonly found in nature with outstanding functional and mechanical properties.
