    Författare :Aseem Salhotra; Alf Månsson; Henry Hess; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biocomputation; molecular motors; 3-SAT; surface chemistry; actomyosin; actin; myosin II; heavy meromyosin; myosin XI; engineered myosin; in vitro motility assay; nanofabrication; alternate computing; network based biocomputation; protein-surface interaction; longevity; prolongation; surface recycling; affinity purification; blocking actin; Bioteknik; Biotechnology; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : There exist complex mathematical problems that are important in real world applications such as weather prediction, molecular modelling, network route optimization and more. In general, such problems are solved using supercomputers with higher computing efficiency but this also consumes high energy along with high production and maintenance cost. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Myosin II is the molecular motor responsible for muscle contraction. It transforms the chemical energy in ATP into mechanical work while interacting with actin filaments in so called cross-bridge cycles. Myosin II or its proteolytic fragments e.g. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Variability and adaptation in the contractile system of smooth muscle

    Författare :Mia Löfgren; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
