  2. 11. A small amoeba at the crossroads of the big RNAi world : MicroRNA biogenesis and Argonaute function in Dictyostelium discoideum

    Author : Zhen Liao; Fredrik Söderbom; Gerhart E. H. Wagner; Christina Dixelius; Kriton Kalantidis; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; RNAi; microRNA; Argonaute protein; miRNA biogenesis; Dictyostelium discoideum; social amoeba; Dicer; development; growth; Biology with specialization in Molecular Cell Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär cellbiologi;

    Abstract : Small non-coding RNA (ncRNA) mediated gene silencing, known as RNAi, is a key regulatory mechanism of gene expression in eukaryotes. MicroRNAs (miRNA), one major type of small ncRNAs, are about 21nt long and bound by Argonaute proteins. READ MORE

  4. 12. Protein targeting, translocation and insertion in Escherichia coli : Proteomic analysis of substrate-pathway relationships

    Author : Louise Baars; Jan-Willem de Gier; Jan-Maarten van Dijl; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; protein biogenesis; targeting; translocation; insertion; SecB; SecE; E. coli; Biochemistry; Biokemi; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Approximately 10% of the open reading frames in the genome of the Gram-negative bacterium E. coli encodes secretory proteins, and 20% encodes integral inner membrane proteins (IMPs). READ MORE

  5. 13. Biogenesis of the bc1 complex in mitochondria

    Author : Katharina Stephan; Martin Ott; Daniel Daley; Erika Fernandez-Vizarra; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Respiratory chain; bc1 complex assembly; mitochondrial protein biogenesis; molecular biology; yeast; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Mitochondria perform a variety of tasks, but the function they are most prominent for is the energy conversion to form ATP, the universal energy equivalent of the cell. The majority of this ATP is created by the oxidative phosphorylation system, consisting of the respiratory chain and the ATP synthase. READ MORE

  6. 14. Structural characterisation of mitochondrial macromolecular complexes using cryo-EM : Mitoribosome biogenesis and respiratory chain supercomplex

    Author : Sorbhi Rathore; Martin Ott; Daniel Wilson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mitochondria; mitoribosome biogenesis; mitoribosome assembly factors; yeast respiratory supercomplexes; single particle electron cryo-microscopy; cryo-EM sample preparation; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Mitochondria, popularly known as powerhouse of the cell, contain specialised mitoribosomes that synthesise essential membrane proteins. These essential proteins are required to form enzyme complexes, which carry out the process of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). READ MORE

  7. 15. Viperin, a multifunctional radical SAM enzyme : biogenesis and antiviral mechanisms

    Author : Arunkumar Upadhyay; Anna K. Överby; Niklas Arnberg; Richard Lundmark; Michael Beard; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Viperin (virus-inhibitory protein, endoplasmic reticulum-associated, interferon-inducible) is an interferon-induced antiviral protein. It has three distinct functional domains: the N-terminal domain, the radical SAM (S-adenosylmethionine) domain for binding iron-sulphur cluster, and the C-terminus domain. READ MORE
