1. 11. Mercury methylation in boreal peatlands: Influence of geochemistry and biology

   Författare :Baolin Wang; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Methylmercury (MeHg) is a neurotoxin mainly produced by microorganisms in suboxic and anoxic environments such as peatlands. Peatlands are an important source of MeHg in adjacent aquatic ecosystems, thus increasing the risk of human and wildlife exposure to this toxic compound. LÄS MER

3. 12. Biorefining of lignocellulose : Detoxification of inhibitory hydrolysates and potential utilization of residual streams for production of enzymes

   Författare :Adnan Cavka; Leif J. Jönsson; John N. Saddler; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Sammanfattning : Lignocellulosic biomass is a renewable resource that can be utilized for the production of biofuels, chemicals, and bio-based materials. Biochemical conversion of lignocellulose to advanced biofuels, such as cellulosic ethanol, is generally performed through microbial fermentation of sugars generated by thermochemical pretreatment of the biomass followed by an enzymatic hydrolysis of the cellulose.

4. 13. Genetic engineering of Yarrowia lipolytica for the sustainable production of food oils

   Författare :Oliver Konzock; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; triacyclglycerols; RNA-seq; tolerance; cocoa butter; hydrolysate; yeast; desaturase; filamentation;

   Sammanfattning : The human population and its demand for food oils is constantly growing. However, increasing food oil production currently requires the deforestation of mostly tropical rainforests to allow the plantation of oil crops. LÄS MER

5. 14. Role of toll-like receptors in host responses to mucosal bacterial infections

   Författare :Fredrik Bäckhed; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The first contact between invading bacteria and the host occurs at the mucosal surface. Interestingly, the mucosal linings of different organs are exposed to bacteria to various degrees. LÄS MER

7. 15. Computational prediction of receptor-ligand binding affinity in drug discovery

   Författare :John Marelius; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell and molecular biology; computer-aided ligand design; molecular dynamics simulation; linear interaction energy; free energy perturbation; scoring function; dihydrofolate reductase; thrombin; serine proteases; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biotechnology; molekylär bioteknik avd f jonfysik ;

   Sammanfattning : The evaluation of inhibition constants or, more generally, receptor-ligand binding affinities is a crucial part of the drug discovery process. Chemical synthesis and affinity screening is only affordable for a limited number of compounds. This makes computational methods to predict binding affinities of candidate ligands highly desirable.
