    Sammanfattning : Ubiquinones are a group of fat-soluble molecules present in many biological membranes. The most abundant version in humans, ubiquinone-10 (Q10), plays an important role in the mitochondrial respiration chain and also functions as a powerful antioxidant. Accumulating evidence suggests that Q10 also could have other functions in the membrane. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Endogenous antioxidants in human skeletal muscle and adaption in energy metabolism : with reference to exercise-training, exercise-related factors and nutrition

    Författare :Michael B Svensson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :GSH; urate; Q10; Ubiquinone-10; myoblasts; muscle stem cells; high-intensity exercise; performance; overload training; adenine nucleotides; AMP deaminase; glycogen; carbohydrates.;

    Sammanfattning : The antioxidant homeostasis is determined by a wide array of interacting cellular antioxidants, as well as being influenced by the homeostasis in energy metabolism. Changes in antioxidant homeostasis, as a consequences of altered production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). and/or by changes in the resident levels of antioxidants. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Advanced computations and mass-spectrometric techniques to unravel the dynamics and interactions of proteins

    Författare :Joana Costeira-Paulo; Erik Marklund; Lars Konermann; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; molecular dynamics; mass spectrometry; dihydroorotate dehydrogenase; alpha-synuclein; protein structure; ion mobility; electrospray ionisation; collision cross section; lipids; gas-phase hydrogen deuterium exchange; collision induced unfolding; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Proteins are an important class of biomolecules, involved in the metabolism, regulation, structure and transport in cells. Unfortunately, many diseases are caused by protein dysfunction. When proteins perform their normal function, they may interact with each other or change their conformation. LÄS MER
