  1. 1. Polarized light spectroscopy studies of model membranes and DNA

    Author : Maxim Kogan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; emission; ruthenium dipyridophenazine complex; lipid bilayer; linear dichroism; membrane model; membrane orientation; bimolecular probe; DNA;

    Abstract : Over the past decades Linear Dichroism (LD) spectroscopy has proven to be a powerful tool for studies of structure and functioning of different cell constituents, including DNA, cell membranes and proteins. Due to structural complexity of cell constituents, the LD studies of biomolecules depend on development of simplified model systems, which can mimic the original structure and functionality of the cell components.

  2. 2. Structural Transitions in Helical Peptides : The Influence of Water – Implications for Molecular Recognition and Protein Folding

    Author : Martin Lignell; Hans-Christian Becker; Kaare Teilum; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein dynamics; protein folding; molten globule; time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy; CD spectroscopy; molecular recognition; structure-function paradigm; Chemical physics; Kemisk fysik; Physical Chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : Fluctuations in protein structure are vital to function. This contrasts the dominating structure-function paradigm, which connects the well-defined three-dimensional protein structure to its function. However, catalysis is observed in disordered enzymes, which lack a defined structure. READ MORE

  3. 3. Electronic Structure of π-Conjugated Materials and Their Effect on Organic Photovoltaics

    Author : Chuanfei Wang; Mats Fahlman; Xianjie Liu; Ergang Wang; Zong-Xiang Xu; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The great tunability of structure and electronic properties of π-conjugated organic molecules/polymers combined with other advantages such as light weight and flexibility etc., have made organic-based electronics the focus of an exciting still-growing field of physics and chemistry for more than half a century.

  4. 4. Pro-senescence therapy by targeting MYC and its network as a strategy to combat cancer

    Author : Fan Zhang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Cancer is defined as abnormal cell proliferation with the potential of metastasis and is an increasing threat to global health as the population becomes older. Cancer is triggered by gain-of-function mutations in oncogenes and loss of function mutations in tumor suppressor genes. READ MORE
