  1. 1. Glycerol kinase deficiency. Clinical, biochemical, and genetic aspects

    Author : Christina Hellerud; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : contiguous gene syndrome; diagnose; exercise; fasting; glucose deficit; glycerol; glycerol kinase deficiency; metabolism; molecular modelling; mRNA analysis; mutation; natural history; prognosis; splice-junction analysis; treatment; triglycerides;

    Abstract : Glycerol kinase deficiency (GKD, MIM 307030) is an X-linked recessive inborn error of metabolism occurring isolated or in an Xp contiguous gene syndrome with adrenal hypoplasia and/or Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The gene syndrome is due to deletions in the p21 region on the X chromosome. READ MORE

  2. 2. Electrooxidation of glycerol and methanol on gold

    Author : Mikael Valter; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; van der Waals; electrochemistry; methanol; gold; glycerol; DFT;

    Abstract : Burning of fossil fuels leads to excess CO2 in the atmosphere, causing global warming, threatening civilisation and ecosystems worldwide. As a step in making the society fossil-independent, we need to replace oil, coal, and gas in the transportation sector with fuels originating from sustainable energy. READ MORE

    Keywords : Lactobacillus reuteri; propanediol utilization pathway; microcompartment; shell proteins; glycerol; 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde; 3-hydroxypropionic acid; 1; 3-propanediol; glycerol dehydratase; 1; 3-propanediol oxidoreductase; propionaldehyde dehydrogenase; redox balance; substrate selectivity;

    Abstract : Concerns regarding environmental issues have led to increasing efforts for investigating sustainable production routes for the future industry that is based on renewable resources. Among the biobased chemicals, the C3-chemicals 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA), 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) and 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP), have been identified as top candidates for the chemical industry.
