1. Xanthophyll Cycle in the Light of Thylakoid Membrane Lipids - Membrane Packing, Curvature Elastic Stress and Enzyme Binding
Sammanfattning : The xanthophyll cycle involves the light-dependent and reversible conversion of violaxanthin to zeaxanthin. The enzyme, violaxanthin de-epoxidase (VDE) catalyses the conversion of violaxanthin to zeaxanthin, via the intermediate antheraxanthin. VDE is a membrane-hosted enzyme during its activity. LÄS MER
2. Plasma membrane order; the role of cholesterol and links to actin filaments
Sammanfattning : The connection between T cell activation, plasma membrane order and actin filament dynamics was the main focus of this study. Laurdan and di-4-ANEPPDHQ, membrane order sensing probes, were shown to report only on lipid packing rather than being influenced by the presence of membrane-inserted peptides justifying their use in membrane order studies.

3. Characterization of the in vivo mechanisms of action of cell envelope-targeting antibiotics
Sammanfattning : Multidrug-resistant bacteria pose a major threat to society. Once easily treatable diseases are now challenging to cure. With the golden age of antibiotics being over, the discovery of new antibiotics has been stagnant, and no new antibiotic class has been introduced into the clinic since 2003. LÄS MER
