  1. 1. The hematopoietic transcription factor RUNX1 : a structural view

    Author : Stefan Bäckström; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Molecular medicine; RUNX1; Runt domain; CBFβ; transcription factor; leukaemia; protein crystallography; anomalous diffraction; Molekylärmedicin; Molecular medicine genetics and pathology ; Molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : The malfunction of the transcriptional regulator RUNX1 is the major cause of several variants of acute human leukemias and its normal function is to regulate the development of the blood system in concert with other transcriptional co-regulators. RUNX1 belongs to a conserved family of heterodimeric transcription factors that share a conserved DNA binding domain, the Runt domain (RD), named after the first member of this group – Runt - found in Drosophila melanogaster.

  2. 2. Transthyretin from a structural perspective

    Author : Andreas Hörnberg; Elisabeth Sauer-Eriksson; Hugo Monaco; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell and molecular biology; X-ray crystallography; amyloidosis; structural comparison; anomalous diffraction; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : Conformational changes in human proteins can induce several types of diseases. The nature of the conformational changes is largely unknown, but some lead to amyloid fibril formation. Amyloid fibrils accumulate in the extra-cellular space of tissues resulting in disruption of organ function. READ MORE

  3. 3. Spectra and Dynamics of Excitations in Long-Range Correlated Structures

    Author : Lars Kroon; Rolf Riklund; Magnus Johansson; Jeroen Lamb; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quasicrystals; deterministic aperiodic superlattices; Markov chains; electronic structure and diffusion; elastic vibrations; Fraunhofer diffraction; discrete solitons; phase transitions; Condensed matter physics; Kondenserade materiens fysik;

    Abstract : Vad karaktäriserar en kristall? Svaret på denna till synes enkla fråga blir kanske att det är en anordning av atomer uppradade i periodiska mönster. Så ordnade strukturer kan studeras genom att det uppträder så kallade Braggtoppar i röntgendiffraktionsmönstret. READ MORE

  4. 4. Studies of carbon nanomaterials based on fullerenes and carbon nanotubes

    Author : Agnieszka Iwasiewicz-Wabnig; Bertil Sundqvist; Eleanor E.B. Campbell; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fullerenes; carbon nanotubes; fullerene polymers; intercalation compounds; high pressure; Raman spectroscopy; X-ray diffraction; atomic force microscopy; phase transitions; Material physics with surface physics; Materialfysik med ytfysik;

    Abstract : Materials based on fullerenes and carbon nanotubes are very much different from most “traditional” materials, primarily because they are built from nanosized molecules with highly symmetry-dependent properties. Being the subject of a very active research field over the last twenty years, carbon nanostructures proved to be indeed extraordinary. READ MORE

  5. 5. Carbides in martensitic medium carbon low alloyed tool steels studied with small angle scattering techniques, electron microscopy and atom probe tomography

    Author : Erik Claesson; Peter Hedström; Hans Magnusson; Erik Offerman; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Low alloyed tool steel; Martensite; Small angle scattering; Scanning transmission electron microscopy; Energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy; atom probe tomography; Scanning precession electron diffraction; Precipitation; carbides; Tempering.; Materials Science and Engineering; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Medium carbon low alloyed tool steels are used today in various areas to shape plastics, nonferrous metals, and steels, and they are crucial in the manufacturing industry. To be effective, tool steels must be strong and tough, and have high wear resistance and temperature stability. READ MORE
