    Sammanfattning : Wood formation or xylogenesis is a fundamental process for so diverse issues as industry, shelter and a sustainable environment. Wood is comprised of secondary xylem, rigid large cells with thick cell walls that are lignified. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Leishmaniasis in Sweden. Molecular, diagnostic and epidemiological studies of the parasite Leishmania in a non-endemic country

    Författare :Sara Karlsson Söbirk; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; leishmaniasis; Parasite; Epidemiological studies; Serology; diagnostic method; Immune System; Sweden; leishmaniasis; Leishmania; immune system; chitinase; CAZy; Immune evasion; Antimicrobial peptide AMP ; Chemokine; epidemiology; Sweden; Serological assays; diagnostic method;

    Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis consists of four separate papers, in which we; investigate epidemiological and clinical aspects of leishmaniasis in Sweden in order to increase awareness of the disease, elucidate some aspects of the interaction of the parasite and the human immune system and validate serological tools as a complement for diagnosis of leishmaniasis..

  3. 3. A holistic approach to understanding CAZy families through reductionist methods

    Författare :Jens Eklöf; Harry Brumer; Per-Åke Nygren; Lars Arvestad; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbohydrate esterase family 8; XET; PME; YbhC; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Sammanfattning :   In a time when the amount of biological data present in the public domain is becoming increasingly vast, the need for good classification systems has never been greater. In the field of glycoscience the necessity of a good classification for the enzymes involved in the biosynthesis, modification and degradation of polysaccharides is even more pronounced than in other fields.

  4. 4. Discovery and applications of family AA9 lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases

    Författare :Monika Tõlgo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases; cellulose; xylan; spruce; carbohydrate active enzymes; LPMO; lignocellulolytic enzyme cocktails; lignocellulose; polysaccharides; AA9; cellulose nanocrystals; thermophilic fungi;

    Sammanfattning : Auxililary activity family 9 lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (abbreviated as AA9s or LPMO9s) are fungal mono-copper enzymes capable of oxidatively cleaving various plant cell wall oligo- and/or polysaccharides. LPMO9s are key components of lignocellulolytic enzyme cocktails used in today’s biorefineries to break down biomass into fermentable sugars. LÄS MER

  5. 5. In vitro and in vivo approaches in the characterization of XTH gene products

    Författare :Nomchit Kaewthai; Harry Brumer; Jocelyn Rose; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arabiodopsis thaliana; Hordeum vulgare; plant cell wall; xyloglucan; glycoside hydrolase family 16; xyloglucan endo-transglycosylase hydrolase gene family; xyloglucan endo-hydrolase; heterologous protein expression; Pichia pastoris; T-DNA insertion; in situ XET XEH assay; high-througput screening; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Functional genomics; Funktionsgenomik; SRA - Molecular Bioscience; SRA - Molekylär biovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT The xyloglucan endo-transglycosylase/hydrolase (XTH) genes are found in all vascular and some nonvascular plants. The XTH genes encode proteins which comprise a subfamily of glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 16 in the Carbohydrate-Active enZYmes (CAZY) classification. LÄS MER
