  2. 1. Coiled coil cytoskeleton in cell architecture and osmotic stress response in Streptomyces

    Author : Katsuya Fuchino; Molekylär cellbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Coiled coil protein; Streptomyces coelicolor; polar growth; osmotic-stress response; turgor;

    Abstract : Coiled coil proteins emerge as important determinants of bacterial cellular organization. Several such proteins display properties characteristic to metazoan intermediate filament (IF) proteins, and are therefore designated bacterial IF-like proteins. READ MORE

  4. 2. The oxidative and osmotic stress responses of S. cerevisiae

    Author : Claes Molin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The yeast Hog1 is a stress responsive mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) similar to mammalian p38 and JNK. Rck2 is a protein kinase downstream of Hog1. The Hog1 pathway was previously implicated exclusively in the response to osmotic stress. READ MORE

  5. 3. Structure and Function of the Borrelia burgdorferi Porins, P13 and P66

    Author : Mari Bonde; Sven Bergström; Melissa Caimano; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Borrelia; P13; P66; porin; protein complex; dissemination; osmotic stress;

    Abstract : Borrelia burgdorferi is an elongated and helically shaped bacterium that is the causal agent of the tick-borne illness Lyme disease. The disease manifests with initial flu-like symptoms and, in many cases, the appearance of a skin rash called erythema migrans at the site of the tick bite. READ MORE

  6. 4. Modeling and identification of biological systems with emphasis on osmoregulation in yeast

    Author : Peter Gennemark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; osmotic stress; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; model identification; parameter estimation; model selection; ordinary differential equations;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with two topics in the area of systems biology. Thefirst topic, model identification, concerns the problem ofautomatically identifying a mathematical model of a biochemical systemfrom experimental data. READ MORE

  7. 5. Abiotic Stress Tolerance. Metabolic and Physiological Effects of Compatible Solutes and Calmodulin on E. coli and Tobacco

    Author : Jenny Lindberg; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Abiotic stress; compatible solutes; osmotic stress; osmoprotectants; trehalose; calmodulin; E. coli; N. tabacum; genetic engineering; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; Biochemistry; Metabolism; Biokemi; metabolism; glycine betaine;

    Abstract : In their natural habitats, bacteria and plants can be exposed to abiotic stresses such as drought, high salt concentrations and freezing, which are factors limiting their capacity for growth and proliferation. To withstand environmental stresses, they have evolved specific stress responses. READ MORE
