The indiscriminate use of pesticide could potentially impact on the long-term food production, environmental and human health in the delta. READ MORE

  4. 2. Studies of the chromatin form of yeast Mediator and the function of its tail module

    Author : Miriam Nilsson; Stefan Björklund; Claes Gustafsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Mediator complex; Transcriptional regulation; yeast; tail module; transcription; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : Mediator is a large, multifunctional complex that is conserved in eukaryotes. It was first discovered in Saccharomyces cerevisiaeas required for transcriptional activators to function in a reconstituted in vitro system. Mediator is also important for stimulation of basal, unregulated transcription, and transcriptional repression. READ MORE

  5. 3. Ecological interactions in human modified landscapes : Landscape dependent remedies for the maintenance of biodiversity and ecosystem services
