  1. 11. The roles of Lhcb1 och Lhcb2 in regulation of photosynthetic light harvesting

    Author : Malgorzata Pietrzykowska; Stefan Jansson; Jean-David Rochaix; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arabidopsis; Lhcb1; Lhcb2; LHCII; state transitions; phosphorylation; biology; biologi;

    Abstract : Photosynthesis in higher plants relies upon collection of light by chlorophyll molecules associated with light harvesting chlorophyll a/b-binding (LHC) proteins. The two most abundant of these are Lhcb1 and Lhcb2, which make up light harvesting complex (LHC) II trimers. READ MORE

  2. 12. Light stress proteins from Arabidopsis thaliana : identification, characterisation and expression

    Author : Mounia Heddad; Phillip Mullineaux; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Biokemi; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Plants are major players in the vital process of photosynthesis that takes place in organelles called chloroplasts. Plant's immobility makes them victims of the tremendous fluctuations in light intensity and quality that often lead to inhibition of their physiological functions. READ MORE

  3. 13. Molecular approaches to the developmental biology of Norway spruce, Picea abies

    Author : Karolina Tandre; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi; fysiologisk botanik; Physiological Botany;

    Abstract : Ontogeny depends on the developmental control of genes. In this thesis twoapproaches were taken to identify genes essential to developmental processes inthe conifer Norway spruce, Picea abies (L.) Karst. READ MORE

  4. 14. Functional and structural studies of the Presequence protease, PreP

    Author : Hans G Bäckman; Elzbieta Glaser; Per Gardeström; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Presequence Protease; PreP; AtPreP; hPreP; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : AtPreP (Arabidopsis thaliana Presequence Protease) is a zink metallooligopeptidase that is dually targeted to both mitochondria and chloroplasts. In these organelles it functions as a peptidasome that degrades the N-terminal targeting peptides that are cleaved off from the mature protein after protein import, as well as other unstructured peptides.
