1. 1. Production of human heme-binding proteins in plants for potential pharmaceutical and nutritional uses

   Författare :Magnus Carlsson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Plants have a long history as a source of nutrition and medication. In the last few decades, interest has also emerged in using plants as a production system for protein pharmaceuticals, in part due to possible scale-up- and safety-benefits with this method of production.

3. 2. Studies on the Role of UDP-Glucose Dehydrogenase in Polysaccharide Biosynthesis

   Författare :Elisabet Roman; Marion Kusche-Gullberg; Hakon Leffler; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biochemistry; UDP-glucose dehydrogenase; polysaccharide biosynthesis; glycosaminoglycan; A. thaliana; E. coli K5; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Medical and Physiological Chemistry; medicinsk och fysiologisk kemi;

   Sammanfattning : Polysaccharides are found in all forms of life and serve diverse purposes. They are enzymatically synthesised from activated monosaccharide precursors, nucleotide sugars. One such nucleotide sugar is UDP-glucuronic acid, which is formed from UDP-glucose by the UDP-glucose dehydrogenase (UGDH) enzyme. LÄS MER

4. 3. Light stress proteins from Arabidopsis thaliana : identification, characterisation and expression

   Författare :Mounia Heddad; Phillip Mullineaux; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Biokemi; biokemi; Biochemistry;

   Sammanfattning : Plants are major players in the vital process of photosynthesis that takes place in organelles called chloroplasts. Plant's immobility makes them victims of the tremendous fluctuations in light intensity and quality that often lead to inhibition of their physiological functions. LÄS MER

5. 4. The molecular mechanisms behind perception and signal transduction of UV-B irradiation in Arabidopsis thaliana

   Författare :Irina Kalbina; Åke Strid; Lars-Gunnar Franzén; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Action spectroscopy; Arabidopsis; gene expression; reverse genetics; signal transduction; UV-B irradiation.; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

   Sammanfattning : Elevation of UV-B radiation (280-315 nm), occurring as a result of depletion of the stratospheric ozone, causes a number of physiological and biochemical changes in plants. Damage to the photosynthetic apparatus (including the bleaching of the pigments which trap the sun's energy), to the processes of cell division and growth regulation, and to the composition and replication of genetic material are just some of these changes.

7. 5. Novel diagnostic microarray assay formats towards comprehensive on-site analysis

   Författare :Jesper Gantelius; Helene Andersson-Svahn; Christer Wingren; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; magnetic microbeads; gold nanobeads; microarrays; lateral flow; on-site diagnosis; SNPs; pestivirus; autoimmunity; contagious bovine pleuropneumonia; comsol multiphysics; finite element method; Microbiology; Mikrobiologi; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

   Sammanfattning : Advances in molecular methods for analyzing DNA, RNA and proteins in humans as well as in other animals, plants, fungi, bacteria or viruses have greatly increased the resolution with which we can study life’s complexity and dynamics on earth. While genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic laboratory tools for molecular diagnosis of disease are rapidly becoming more comprehensive, the access to such advanced yet often expensive and centralized procedures is limited.
