1. Actomyosin in biocomputation
Sammanfattning : There exist complex mathematical problems that are important in real world applications such as weather prediction, molecular modelling, network route optimization and more. In general, such problems are solved using supercomputers with higher computing efficiency but this also consumes high energy along with high production and maintenance cost. LÄS MER
2. Biophysical studies of the actin-myosin motor system and applications in nanoscience
Sammanfattning : The actin-myosin motor system plays important roles in cellular processes. In addition, actin and myosin have been used for developments towards nanotechnological applications in recent years. LÄS MER
3. Characterization and optimization of the in vitro motility assay for fundamental studies of myosin II
Sammanfattning : Myosin II is the molecular motor responsible for muscle contraction. It transforms the chemical energy in ATP into mechanical work while interacting with actin filaments in so called cross-bridge cycles. Myosin II or its proteolytic fragments e.g. LÄS MER
4. Variability and adaptation in the contractile system of smooth muscle
Sammanfattning : This thesis examines the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the large diversity of the contractile properties in smooth muscle. Six studies, I-VI, are included. I: a slow smooth muscle (aorta) has a different nucleotide and phosphate dependence compared to a fast type (taenia coli). LÄS MER
5. Cooperativity in muscle proteins : a study of actin filaments and myosin II
