6. A biophysical study of nucleic acid interactions with analogues and drugs
Sammanfattning : work presented in this thesis concerns studies on the physicochemical nature of interactions between nucleic acids and small ligands. The outcome of such studies can yield insights at a molecular level into the physiological mechanisms of action of biologically active nucleic-acid binding molecules. LÄS MER
7. How could Christmas trees remain evergreen? : photosynthetic acclimation of Scots pine and Norway spruce needles during winter
Sammanfattning : Plants and other green organisms harvest sunlight by green chlorophyll pigments and covertit to chemical energy (sugars) and oxygen in a process called photosynthesis providing the foundation for life on Earth. Although it is unanimously believed that oceanic phytoplanktons are the main contributors to the global photosynthesis, the contribution of coniferous boreal forests distributed across vast regions of the northern hemisphere cannot be undermined.

8. Imaging Living Cells with an X-ray Laser
Sammanfattning : Imaging living cells at a resolution higher than the resolution of optical microscopy is a significant challenge. Fluorescence microscopy can achieve a degree of super-resolution via labeling cellular components with a fluorescent dye. LÄS MER
9. Fluorescence microscopy studies of interactions between monomeric α-Synuclein and lipid membranes
Sammanfattning : α-Synuclein (α-Syn), is an intrinsically disordered protein present in the substantia nigra part of the brain. α-Syn is commonly known to associate with lipid membranes containing anionic lipids. LÄS MER
10. Photoluminescence-based characterization of bioengineered nanovesicles and erbium emitters
Sammanfattning : In recent decades, photoluminescence properties of single molecules and ions have opened new possibilities for studies on smaller size scales, below the light-diffraction limit. In this thesis, the advantages of such single photon emitters were harnessed and studied mainly in the field of biophysics, but also, in investigations within solid state photonics. LÄS MER
