16. Coiled coil Cytoskeleton in Bacterial Cell Architecture : Studies of Growth and Development in Streptomyces
Sammanfattning : Bacterial cytoskeleton is an exciting and relatively new field of research. Recent findings have proven that microbes are well-organized and neatly structured organisms. LÄS MER
17. Mechanical response of cross-linked actin networks
Sammanfattning : The ability to predict the mechanical properties of cells should be seen in the light of the close connection between abnormal cell states and a change in the cell response to stimuli. For example, it has been found that the stiffness of cancer cells is much lower than their healthy counterparts, influencing metastasis and cell migration. LÄS MER
18. Structure and function of the cytoskeleton in cardiac and skeletal muscle
Sammanfattning : We have examined the functional and structural roles of the cytoskeletal protein desmin in cardiac and skeletal muscles using a genetically modified mouse (Des-/-) with the desmin gene ablated. Desmin forms filaments at the Z-disks in the striated muscle sarcomere, have connections to the sarcolemma and most likely align sarcomeres and whole cells. LÄS MER
19. Imaging spectropolarimetry of solar active regions
Sammanfattning : Solar magnetic fields span a wide range of spatial scales from sunspots and plages to magnetic bright points. A clear understanding of the physical processes underlying the evolution of these magnetic features requires high-resolution spectropolarimetric observations of solar active regions and comparisons with synthetic data from simulations.

20. Coiled coil cytoskeleton in cell architecture and osmotic stress response in Streptomyces
Sammanfattning : Coiled coil proteins emerge as important determinants of bacterial cellular organization. Several such proteins display properties characteristic to metazoan intermediate filament (IF) proteins, and are therefore designated bacterial IF-like proteins. LÄS MER
