1. 1. NADH:quinone oxidoreductase: the black box of the respiratory chain

   Författare :Robert Roth; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NADH:quinone oxidoreductase; Complex I; electron transport; membrane protein; ubiquinone; respiratory chain; respiration; metabolism; Metabolism; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

   Sammanfattning : Complex I or NADH:quinone oxidoreductase the largest, most complex and least understood of the five membrane-bound enzyme complexes constituting the mitochondrial respiratory chain. The enzyme is present in all types of organisms, from bacteria to mammals. LÄS MER

3. 2. Organic acids in root exudates and soil solutions. Importance to calcicole and calcifuge behaviour of plants

   Författare :Lena Ström; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nutrient-solubilisation; iron; phosphate; nutrient-limitations; citrate; oxalate; organic acids; root exudation; acidifuge; Calcicole; calcifuge; adaptations.; Plant ecology; Växtekologi;

   Sammanfattning : Many vascular plant species are unable to colonise calcareous sites, the floristic composition of adjacent limestone and acid silicate soils differing markedly. The inability of these 'calcifuge' species to establish themselves and grow on limestone soil appears to mainly be related to their low capacity for solubilising and absorbing phosphate and/or iron from such soils.

4. 3. Magnesium Chelatase: Insights into the first Step of Chlorophyll Biosynthesis

   Författare :Nick Sirijovski; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Electron microscopy; Proteobacteria; Mutants; Rhodobacter capsulatus; Tetrapyrrole; Plant biochemistry; Växtbiokemi; Biochemistry; Metabolism; Biokemi; metabolism; Proteins; enzymologi; enzymology; Proteiner; Chlorophyll biosynthesis; AAA proteins; Magnesium chelatase; Barley; ATPase;

   Sammanfattning : The enzyme magnesium chelatase inserts magnesium into protoporphyrin IX (Proto) to produce to magnesium protoporphyrin IX, the first unique intermediate of the chlorophyll biosynthetic pathway. Magnesium chelatase is composed of three distinct proteins termed I (molecular weight ~40 kDa), D (~70 kDa) and H (~140 kDa). LÄS MER

5. 4. Antioxidant Capacity in Fruit and Vegetables -Cultivar Variation - Storage Conditions - Human Antioxidant Status

   Författare :Jessica Nilsson; Tillämpad biokemi; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; human plasma antioxidants; Brassica; strawberry; pea; cultivar; ABTS; FRAP; Total antioxidant capacity; TAC; Food and drink technology; Livsmedelsteknik;

   Sammanfattning : The health-promoting effects of fruits and vegetables have been extensively discussed during the past decade since epidemiologic studies have shown relations between increased intake of fruit and vegetables and decreased incidences of several chronic diseases. It has been suggested that antioxidants are a main contributors to the observed effects, for example by acting as scavengers of free radicals. LÄS MER

7. 5. Structural Insights into the Acquisition and Storage of Iron

   Författare :Ulrika Schagerlöf; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Strukturkemi; Molecular biophysics; Molekylär biofysik; Structure chemistry; single particle; ferric reductase; human phagocyte superoxide-generating NADPH oxidase; frataxin; cryo electron microscopy; FRO2; iron homeostasis; iron acquisition;

   Sammanfattning : It is of vital importance to understand the systems for iron metabolism and this thesis contributes to this by providing insights into the structure and function of the acquisition and homeostasis of iron. The two proteins that have been primarily investigated are a ferric reductase from Arabidopsis thaliana called FRO2 and a mitochondrial iron chaperone from Saccharomyces cerevisiae called frataxin.
