  2. 1. Characterization of auxiliary membrane proteins in the chloroplast of Arabidopsis thaliana

    Author : Lotta von Sydow; Christiane Funk; Wolfgang Schröder; Thomas Pfannschmidt; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Arabidopsis; chaperone; chloroplast; Cytochrome b559; FtsH; membrane proteins; photosynthesis; Photosystem II; protease; PsbY.; Arabidopsis; chaperone; Cytochrome b559; fotosyntes; fotosystem II; FtsH; kloroplast; membranprotein; proteas; PsbY.; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : In nature, sessile plants have to adapt to their environment and to the never ending changes they are exposed to. They do so mainly by proteomic and metabolomic changes. In all cells, there are complex networks of auxiliary proteins that are responsible for quality control of all the cell's proteins. READ MORE

  4. 2. Targeting and function of CAH1 : Characterization of a novel protein pathway to the plant cell chloroplast

    Author : Stefan Burén; Göran Samuelsson; Muriel Bardor; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arabidopsis; chloroplast; endomembrane system; CAH1; protein targeting; N-glycosylation; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : The chloroplast is the organelle within a plant cell where photosynthesis takes place. This organelle originates from a cyanobacterium that was engulfed by a eukaryotic cell. READ MORE

  5. 3. Magnesium Chelatase - a Key Enzyme in Chlorophyll Biosynthesis

    Author : Eva Axelsson; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Kemi; Chemistry; AAA-proteins; Chlorophyll biosynthesis; Magnesium chelatase;

    Abstract : The biosynthesis of chlorophylls is an important process in nature. The green pigments play a fundamental role in absorbing and transferring solar energy to the photosynthetic apparatus. READ MORE

  6. 4. Expression and Function of Human and Plant Aquaporins

    Author : Maria Agemark; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aquaporin; water channel; overexpression; Pichia pastoris; AQP8; AQP5; SoPIP2; 1;

    Abstract : The aquaporins (AQPs) belong to a family of water permeable membrane channels found in virtually all living organisms. Thirteen isoforms of mammalian AQPs are found, whereas in Arabidopsis thaliana 35 genes encoding AQPs are found. The AQPs are distributed in different organs, cell types and in different subcellular membranes. READ MORE

  7. 5. Geographic differentiation and population history in Silene dioica and S. hifacensis: variation in chloroplast DNA and allozymes

Physiology of nonvascular plants; Systematisk botanik; taxonomi; morfologi; kemotaxonomi. Växters fysiologi inte kärlväxter .;

    Abstract : In this thesis I used allozymes and PCR-RFLP analysis of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) to investigate geographic differentiation within the widespread Silene dioica (L.) Clairv. (Caryophyllaceae) and the narrowly-distributed S. hifacensis Rouy ex Willk. READ MORE
