  1. 1. Molecular mechanisms involved in prokaryotic cycling of labile dissolved organic matter in the sea

    Author : Benjamin Pontiller; Jarone Pinhassi; Daniel Lundin; Catherine Legrand; Martin F. Polz; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bacteria and archaea; labile dissolved organic matter; metatranscriptomics; monomers; polymers; carbohydrate-active enzymes CAZymes ; peptidases; membrane transporters; Natural Science; Naturvetenskap; Akvatisk ekologi; Aquatic Ecology; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

    Abstract : Roughly half of the global primary production originates from microscopic phytoplankton in marine ecosystems, converting carbon dioxide into organic matter. This organic matter pool consists of a myriad of compounds that fuel heterotrophic bacterioplankton. READ MORE

  2. 2. The genetics of antibiotic production and the role of antibiotics in biological control of Erwinia amylovora by Erwinia herbicola

    Author : Sandra A. I. Wright; Cornell University; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biological sciences; fire blight; pantocin; Plant pathology; Microbiology; Molecular biology; 0480:Plant pathology; 0307:Molecular biology; 0410:Microbiology;

    Abstract : Erwinia herbicola is an epiphyte of apple and pear with potential as a biocontrol agent of Erwinia amylovora, which causes fire blight. This research aimed to assess the relative role of antibiotics produced by E. herbicola, Eh318 as a mechanistic basis for biocontrol. READ MORE

  3. 3. Tetrapyrrole synthesis in Bacillus subtilis

    Author : Mats Hansson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis describes tetrapyrrole synthesis in the aerobic Gram positive bacterium Bacillus sub-tilis. Tetrapyrroles such as heme of a-, b-, c-, d- and o-type can be synthesised in this organism. In addition, there is strong evidence for the presence of the tetrapyrrole siroheme in B. subtilis.

  4. 4. Cyanobacterial Hydrogen Metabolism : Regulation and Maturation of Hydrogenases

    Author : Ellenor Devine; Peter Lindblad; Karin Stensjö; Laurent Cournac; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cyanobacteria; hydrogenase; hydrogenase specific protease; maturation; regulation; transcriptional studies; hupW; hoxW; hyp; NtcA; CalA; Biology; Biologi; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Microbiology; Mikrobiologi; Chemistry with specialization in Microbial Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot mikrobiell kemi;

    Abstract : In times with elevated CO2 levels and global warming there is a need of finding alternatives to carbon based energy carriers. One such environmental friendly solution could be H2 produced by living organisms. READ MORE

  5. 5. Microbe-induced apoptosis in phagocytic cells and its role in innate immunity

    Author : Robert Blomgran; Olle Stendahl; Limin Zheng; Boris Zhivotovsky; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; apoptosis; cell death; inflammation; innate immunity; microbiology; neutrophil; macrophage; phagocyte; Medical microbiology; Medicinsk mikrobiologi;

    Abstract : Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is a controlled process by which aged or damages cells are eliminated in multicellular organisms. Neutrophils, short-lived phagocytes of the innate immune system, are highly equipped effectors that can sense, locate, ingest and kill bacterial pathogens. READ MORE
