  2. 1. Preparation of leaf mitochondria and studies on mitochondrial photorespiratory reactions

    Author : Per Gardeström; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; leaf mitochondria; photorespiration; aqueous two-phase system; Percoli gradient; cytochromes; glycine decarboyxlase; serine hydroxymethyltransferase; inhitors of photorespiration;

    Abstract : A procedure for the preparation of spinach leaf mitochondria was developed. The procedure combines differential centrifugation, partition in dextran- polyethyleneglycol two-phase system and Percoli density gradient centri- fugation. The different steps separate the material mainly according to size, surface properties and density, respectively. READ MORE

  4. 2. Examining the role of metabolism in Myc-driven tumorigenesis
