  1. 1. Carbohydrate-specific, boronate-containing copolymers: from sugar-sensing to cell adhesion

    Författare :Marina Kuzimenkova; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; surface grafting; chemisorption; boronic acid; carbohydrates; affinity; chromatography; smart polymers; biomimetics; hydrogels; molecular recognition; diffusion; sugar-sensing; cell adhesion;

    Sammanfattning : Carbohydrates play a major role in many cell recognition events and metabolic pathways of living organisms. Synthetic carbohydrate receptors are of great interest for the chemical design of sugar sensors, materials for cell separation, cell immobilization, drug delivery and other biomedical/biotechnological applications.

  3. 2. Used but not Sensed - The Paradox of D-xylose Metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Författare :Karen Ofuji Osiro; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; saccharomyces cerevisiae; sugar sensing signalling; D-Xylose; XR XDH; GFP biosensor; cAMP PKA; Snf3p Rgt2p; SNF1 Mig1p; flow cytometry;

    Sammanfattning : The realization that the extraction and combustion of fossil fuels is having serious effects on the environment and the climate, together with the ever-growing need for fuels, has led to the development of the concept of the biorefinery. Biorefineries are refineries in which fossil resources, such as oil, are replaced by renewable biomaterials to produce biofuels and biochemicals. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The role of sugar sensing and pathway selection on D-xylose utilization by Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Författare :Celina Tufvegren; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : Biorefineries have the potential to partially or entirely replace petrochemistry for the production of our daily bulk and fine chemicals. However, this replacement can only be sustainable and cost-effective if the raw material used is cheap, renewable and does not compete with the food and feed industry. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Understanding and improving microbial cell factories through Large Scale Data-approaches

    Författare :Daniel Brink; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Microbiology; lignocellulose; lignin; D-xylose; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; Pseudomonas putida; bioinformatics; genome assembly; flow cytometry; metabolic engineering; sugar sensing signalling;

    Sammanfattning : Since the advent of high-throughput genome sequencing methods in the mid-2000s, molecular biology has rapidly transitioned towards data-intensive science. Recent technological developments have increased the accessibility of omics experiments by decreasing the cost, while the concurrent design of new algorithms have improved the computational work-flow needed to analyse the large datasets generated.

  7. 5. Studies of the Carbon and Energy Metabolism in the Moss Physcomitrella patens

    Författare :Anders Nilsson; Hans Ronne; Leszek Kleczkowski; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hexokinase; SnRK1; sugar signaling; carbon metabolism; Physcomitrella patens; shuttle vector; subcellular localization; model organism; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology; molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Since a proper balance between anabolic and catabolic reactions is essential for all eukaryotes, the basic mechanisms for regulation of the energy and carbon metabolism have been conserved throughout evolution. The moss Physcomitrella patens, which belongs to one of the basal clades among land plants, has many unique properties that make it an excellent plant model system. LÄS MER
