  1. 1. Predicting the route: from protein sequence to sorting in eukaryotic cell

    Author : Marco Salvatore; Arne Elofsson; Norman Davey; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; eukaryotic cell; sorting signals; subcellular localisation; machine learning; biological sequence analysis; bioinformatics; Biochemistry towards Bioinformatics; biokemi med inriktning mot bioinformatik;

    Abstract : Proteins need to be localised in the correct compartment of a eukaryotic cell to function correctly. Therefore, a protein needs to be transported to the right location. Specific signals present in the protein sequence direct proteins to different subcellular localisations. READ MORE

  2. 2. From Sequence to Sorting : Prediction of Signal Peptides

    Author : Henrik Nielsen; Philipp Bucher; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : In the present age of genome sequencing, a vast number of predicted genes are initially known only by their putative nucleotide sequence. The newly established field of bioinformatics is concerned with the computational prediction of structural and functional properties of genes and the proteins they encode, based on their nucleotide and amino acid sequences.

  3. 3. A few aspects of aircraft noise

    Author : Crispin Dickson; Shafiquzzaman Khan; Mendel Kleiner; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; paired comparison; sorting based paired comparison; sorting algorithms; mergesort; quicksort; aircraft sound synthesis; aircraft noise; sound quality; tonal effects; angle positions; flight conditions; methods of equalization; cognition; Acoustics; Akustik;

    Abstract : A few aspects of aircraft noise were evaluated. These were (i) methods of subjective evaluations, (ii) effects of equalization and (iii) the effects of cognitive aspects.In the first paper, sorting algorithms were used instead of conventional paired comparison method in order to reduce the number of pairs in the evaluation of subjective judgments.

  4. 4. Empirical Essays on Wage Setting and Immigrant Labor Market Opportunities

    Author : Tove Eliasson; Oskar Nordström Skans; Per-Anders Edin; Tor Eriksson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Firm sorting; mobility; wage assimilation; host country specific human capital; employer learning; self-employment; immigrant entrepreneurs; capital access; information asymmetry; minority representation; collective bargaining; turnover; hours of work; labor input; labor costs; Nationalekonomi; Economics;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of three self-contained essays.Essay 1: This essay estimates wage assimilation among non-western immigrants in Sweden, controlling for selection into employment by including individual fixed effects. READ MORE

  5. 5. Translocation of proteins into and across the bacterial and mitochondrial inner membranes

    Author : Salomé Calado Botelho; Gunnar von Heijne; Walter Neupert; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Escherichia coli; mitochondria; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; SecYEG; TIM23; transmembrane helix; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Translocons are dynamic protein complexes with the ability to respond to specific signals and to transport polypeptides between two distinct environments. The Sec-type translocons are examples of such machineries that can interconvert between a pore forming conformation that translocates proteins across the membrane, and a channel-like conformation that integrates proteins into the membrane by lateral opening.
