  2. 6. The evolution and organization of multigene families exemplified by the hordein genes in barley

    Author : Susanne Pelger; Lunds universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Hordein, the seed storage protein in barley, is encoded by a multigene family. All wild and cultivated species of the Hordeum genus were investigated electrophoretically and imunologically for their hordein composition. READ MORE

  4. 7. Cell-penetrating peptides as delivery vectors for oligonucleotides and proteins : Studies on applications and toxicity

    Author : Peter Järver; Ülo Langel; Gilles Divita; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurochemistry; Neurokemi; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Abstract : Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) have for a little bit more than a decade been employed as delivery vectors for a wide range of cargoes, ranging from gold particles to entire plasmids. Although CPP are well studied and utilized in numerous publications, our knowledge about CPP mediated transport is still poor. READ MORE

  5. 8. A genetic approach to the identification of new components regulating development in Arabidopsis thaliana

    Author : Ingela Fridborg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; fysiologisk botanik; Physiological Botany;

    Abstract : Two new genes involved in important processes of plant development were identified in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. The genes were isolated from mutants generated through insertional mutagenesis based on a transposon tagging approach. READ MORE

  6. 9. Novel tools for the study and diagnosis of bacterial infections : exploring the intersection of microbiology and microfabrication

    Author : Charalampos Antypas; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The alarming increase in antibiotic resistance calls for new approaches to study and diagnose bacterial infections. In my thesis, I worked at the intersection of microbiology, microfabrication, and optical probes to develop novel diagnostic and screening assays for microbiology and elucidate bacterial pathogenesis in urinary tract infections (UTI).

  7. 10. Heme Protein Biogenesis - Catalase in Enterococcus faecalis

    Author : Michael Baureder; Molekylär cellbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Enterococcus faecalis; heme proteins; protein assembly; oxidative stress; catalase; cytochrome;

    Abstract : Heme proteins form a large and diverse group of proteins which are involved in a variety of biological functions. The heme prosthetic group enables them to carry out redox reactions, transport electrons, bind gaseous molecules, and function as sensors. Despite their importance only little is generally known about heme protein biogenesis. READ MORE
