1. Protein complexes : assembly, structure and function
Sammanfattning : Most proteins must fold into their native conformations to fulfil their biological functions. Failure of proteins to fold leads to cell pathology and a broad range of human diseases referred to as protein misfolding disease, e.g., Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and type II diabetes.

2. Zero-Field Splitting in Gd(III) complexes : Towards a molecular understanding of paramagnetic relaxation
Sammanfattning : The prime objectives of contrast agents in Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) is to accelerate the relaxation rate of the solvent water protons in the surrounding tissue. Paramagnetic relaxation originates from dipole-dipole interactions between the nuclear spins and the fluctuating magnetic field induced by unpaired electrons. LÄS MER
3. Role of respiratory supercomplexes : Electronic connection between complexes III and IV
Sammanfattning : In the final step of cellular respiration, electrons are transferred through the respiratory chain to reduce molecular oxygen to water. The energy released in this chain is used to maintain a proton electrochemical gradient across the cell membrane, which is used, for example, by the ATP synthase to produce ATP. LÄS MER
4. Modeling Photofunctional Transition Metal Complexes
Sammanfattning : Transition metal complexes play a crucial role in solar energy conversion. These coordination compounds have promising applications in dye-sensitized solar cells and photocatalysis, with particular interest in solar fuel production. LÄS MER
5. Streptococcus pyogenes - a manipulator of human defences
Sammanfattning : Streptococcus pyogenes is a major human pathogen with more than 500 000 casualties annually of which at least 163 000 are due to invasive infections. The remainder is due to post-streptococcal complications with rheu¬matic heart disease constituting the majority. S. LÄS MER
