   Author : Stefan Klinter; Vincent Bulone; Lauren S. McKee; Mirjam Czjzek; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biochemical characterisation; cellulose synthase; chitin synthase; in vitro activity assay; microtubule-interacting and trafficking domain; nanoparticle; oomycetes; phylogenetic analysis; yeast engineering; biokemisk karakterisering; cellulosasyntas; kitinsyntas; in vitro aktivitetsanalys; mikrotubulus-interagerande och -trafikerande domän; nanopartikel; oomyceter; fylogenetisk analys; jäst proteinteknik; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

   Abstract : Despite resembling ‘true’ fungi in terms of morphological features, oo­mycetes form a distinct eukaryotic lineage of filamentous microorganisms that belongs to the stramenopiles, a group of protists also comprising the closely-related brown algae and diatoms. Many oomycetes are devastating pathogens of plants and animals, globally causing significant economic los­ses in the agriculture and aquaculture industries, and posing considerable environmental damage to natural ecosystems.

4. 2. Variational methods for phylogeny and single-cell genomics

   Author : Hazal Koptagel; Jens Lagergren; Alexandre Bouchard-Côté; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Variational inference; single-cell DNA sequencing; cell lineage tree; Bayesian phylogenetic tree inference; Variationsinferens; encellig DNA-sekvensering; cellhärkomstträd; Bayesiansk fylogenetisk trädinferens; Varyasyonel çıkarım; tek hücre DNA dizilimi; hücre soy ağacı; Bayesçi filogenetik ağaç çıkarımı; Datalogi; Computer Science;

   Abstract : The investigation of the evolutionary history of organisms, both at the cellular level and at the species level, is a relevant research topic in computational biology. These investigations lead to a deeper understanding of developmental history, cancer progression, the genetic similarity of species, and more. READ MORE

5. 3. Biosynthesis of bacterial polysaccharides by novel glycosyltransferase enzymes

   Author : Shu-Chieh Chang; Yves S. Y. Hsieh; Ute Römling; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

   Abstract : Within the intricate microbiological realm, exopolysaccharides (EPS) emerge as a significant class of high molecular weight polysaccharides, serving pivotal roles in bacterial survival, virulence, communication, and defense against environmental adversities. The versatile nature of bacterial EPS extends beyond mere biological functions, reaching into medications, cosmetics, functional food, and sustainable industries. READ MORE

6. 4. Ticks and Tick-borne Encephalitis Virus : From Nature to Infection

   Author : Naveed Asghar; Magnus Johansson; Patrik Dinnétz; Travis Taylor; Södertörns högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Co-occurrence; Environmental factors; Flavivirus; Ixodes ricinus; Natural foci; Non-coding region; Poly A tract; Quasispecies; Questing ticks; Scandinavia; Tick-borne encephalitis virus; Vegetation.; Environmental Studies; Miljövetenskapliga studier;

   Abstract : Vector-borne diseases are an increasing global threat to humans due to climate changes, elevating the risk of infections transmitted by mosquitos, ticks, and other arthropod vectors. Ixodes ricinus, a common tick in Europe, transmits dangerous tick-borne pathogens to humans. READ MORE
