  1. 1. Cryo-EM Studies of Macromolecular Complexes from Photosynthetic Organisms

    Författare :Annemarie Perez Boerema; Alexey Amunts; Mei Li; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cryo-EM; membrane proteins; photosynthesis; translation; chloroplast; ribosome; photosystem I; protein structure; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Plants, algae, and cyanobacteria convert light energy into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis, fueling the planet and making life as we know it possible. Photosystem I (PSI) is one of the main photosynthetic complexes, responsible for this process. LÄS MER

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

    Författare :Sorbhi Rathore; Martin Ott; Daniel Wilson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :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;

    Sammanfattning : 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). LÄS MER

  4. 3. Aspects of Intraoperative Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation

    Författare :Birgitta Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :atrial fibrillation; intraoperative ablation; radiofrequency; cryo; epicardial; quality of life; atrial function; predictors of rhythm;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Increasing knowledge about mechanisms that trigger and maintain atrial fibrillation (AF) has influenced the possibilities for treatment and even cure of AF. The surgical Cox Maze III procedure is still the gold standard for the curative treatment of AF. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Towards unbiased 3D reconstruction : in single-particle cryo-electron microscopy

    Författare :Dominika Elmlund; Hans Hebert; Sarah Butcher; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Cryo-electron microscopy of freestanding molecules (single-particles) plays a pivotal role in the difficult and pressing challenge of determining the structures of large macromolecular complexes. Molecular volumes are generated by aligning large sets of randomly oriented two-dimensional (2D) projection images in three dimensions (3D) before reconstruction is performed using tomographic techniques.

  7. 5. Structural Changes in Nonionic Surfactant Systems

    Författare :Sanja Bulut; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Vesicles; Nonionic Surfactant; Wormlike Micelles; Lamellar Phase; NMR; MRI; SLS; DLS; cryo-fracture-TEM; centrifugation; cryo-TEM;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis we have studied structural changes of a nonionic surfactant self-assembly, as governed by changes in temperature and concentration. The techniques used in experimental investigations were dynamic and static light scattering, nuclear magnetic resonance and cryo-transmission electron microscopy (using a novel specimen preparation protocol).
