1. 16. Selective inhibition of acetylcholinesterase 1 from disease-transmitting mosquitoes : design and development of new insecticides for vector control

   Författare :Cecilia Engdahl; Anna Linusson; Fredrik Ekström; Zoran Radić; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; acetylcholinesterase; non-covalent inhibitor; vector control; insecticide; mosquito; vector-borne disease; high throughput screening; rational design; biokemi; Biochemistry; datorlingvistik; computational linguistics;

   Sammanfattning : Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is an essential enzyme with an evolutionary conserved function: to terminate nerve signaling by rapid hydrolysis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. AChE is an important target for insecticides. LÄS MER

3. 17. Advancing isothermal nucleic acid amplification tests : Towards democratization of diagnostics

   Författare :Felix Neumann; Mats Nilsson; Paul Yager; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; molecular diagnostics; infectious diseases; point-of-care; digital quantification; fluorescence detection; rolling circle amplification; padlock probes; microfluidic enrichment; Biochemistry; biokemi;

   Sammanfattning : Modern healthcare is the result of scientific advancement across disciplines and has enabled us to understand the rationale behind many diseases and how to treat or cure them; but still a myriad of unanswered questions remains. Especially infectious diseases play an important role in healthcare as they pose a constant threat for global health and well-being. LÄS MER

4. 18. PII proteins as global regulators of bacterial nitrogen metabolism

   Författare :Pedro Filipe Teixeira; Stefan Nordlund; Ray Dixon; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Rhodospirillum rubrum; nitrogen metabolism; signal transduction; PII proteins; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Biochemistry; biokemi;

   Sammanfattning : Nitrogen is an essential element to sustain life, being a component of most biological macromolecules. In spite of the abundance of gaseous N2, the availability of nitrogen compounds that can be readily used by most microorganisms is scarce and its production energetically demanding. LÄS MER

5. 19. Cell division in Escherichia coli

   Författare :Karl Skoog; Daniel O. Daley; Miguel Vicente; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; biokemi;

   Sammanfattning : The Gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli is a model system to describe the biochemistry and cell biology of cell division in bacteria. This process can be divided into three major steps. The first step involves the replication of the DNA, followed by an elongation step in which the cells become twice as long. LÄS MER

7. 20. Metal ions in life : towards accurate computer-aided studies ofprotein-ion interactions

   Författare :Emma Ahlstrand; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

   Sammanfattning : The importance of ions in life sciences can not be overstated. The interaction betweenmetal ions and proteins is vital because it is involved in a variety of biological processes.The ions contribute to stability and function of proteins. Moreover, they are relevant indisease progression. LÄS MER
