1. Computational studies of nickel catalysed reactions relevant for hydrocarbon gasification
Sammanfattning : Sustainable energy sources are of great importance, and will become even more important in the future. Gasification of biomass is an important process for utilization of biomass, as a renewable energy carrier, to produce fuels and chemicals. LÄS MER
2. Activation of professional phagocytes with emphasis on the formyl peptide receptor family
Sammanfattning : Phagocytic cells such as neutrophil granulocytes and monocytes are an essential part of our innate immune system and play an important role in the battle against pathogens. G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and more specifically chemoattractant receptors are a vital part in guiding phagocytes towards the site of infection. LÄS MER
3. Neutrophil Function and Signaling Induced by Ligands for the Formyl Peptide Receptor 2
Sammanfattning : Neutrophil pattern recognition receptors belonging to the G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) family play a role in the processes of initiation as well as resolution of inflammatory processes. Formyl peptide receptor 2 (FPR2) in neutrophils is such a receptor and plays an important role in inflammation. LÄS MER
4. Formyl-coenzyme : a transferase, structure and enzymatic mechanism
Sammanfattning : Background: Formyl-CoA transferase (Frc) is the first enzyme in a two enzyme pathway responsible for oxalate degradation in Oxalobacter formigenes. This bacterium is a constitutive part of human intestinal flora. Its role as an oxalate scavenger is very important, reports have shown a strong connection between the disappearance of 0. LÄS MER
5. Recognition by leukocyte formyl peptide receptors. Promiscuous binding or pattern recognition?
Sammanfattning : Neutrophil granulocytes play an important role in the early stages of microbial infection. The neutrophils have to leave the blood stream and migrate out into the tissue where they phagocytose microbes and cell debris from damaged host tissues. LÄS MER
