  1. 1. Metabolic engineering of starch synthesis in barley

    Författare :Staffan Ahlandsberg; Sadequr Rahman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hordeum vulgare; plant breeding; starch; genetic engineering; transgenic plants; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Starch is an important industrial raw material both for food and non-food purposes. In plants, starch is deposited in the leaf and in the storage tissues such as seed endosperm, roots or tubers. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Metal Affinity Peptides in Biotechnological Applications As tools in protein purification, protein stabilisation, metal quantification and metal tolerance of bacteria and plants

    Författare :Malin Mejàre; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cadmium; metal quantification; fusion tag; metal affinity tag; phage display; peptide library; metal tolerance; metal resistance; metal accumulation; bioremediation; transgenic plant; tobacco; potato; protein purification; immobilised metal affinity chromatography; metal affinity precipitation; metal detection; protein stabilisation; Bioteknik; Biotechnology; Biokemi; Metabolism; Biochemistry; metal ion;

    Sammanfattning : Metal affinity tags have been fused to proteins and demonstrated to function as tools in protein purification, protein stabilisation, quantitative metal analysis and metal tolerance of bacteria and plants. In biotechnological applications proteins frequently have to function in nonnatural environments with harsh conditions which impose requirements for high stability on the proteins. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Horizontal gene transfer in plants - The story of PgiC2

    Författare :Pernilla Vallenback; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; plant genetics; Festuca ovina; PgiC; Horizontal gene transfer;

    Sammanfattning : Sheep's fescue, Festuca ovina, is a common grass found all over Eurasia. In populations in southern Sweden some individuals were found to have two copies of the gene for cytoplasmic phosphoglucose isomerase, PgiC. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Evolution of genetic mechanisms regulating reproductive development in plants : Characterisation of MADS-box genes active during cone development in Norway spruce

    Författare :Jens Sundström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Picea abies; evolution; flower development; transcription factor; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; fysiologisk botanik; Physiological Botany;

    Sammanfattning : The reproductive organs of conifers and angiosperms differ in morphology in several fundamental respects. The conifer Norway spruce (Picea abies) form pollen and seed cones from separate meristems whereas angiosperms bear bipartite flowers with sepals and petals surrounding two inner whorls of stamens and carpels.

  5. 5. Development of Transgenic Potatoes to Attain Novel Starch Qualities

    Författare :Mariette Andersson; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Livsmedelsteknik; Food and drink technology; Biokemisk teknik; Biochemical technology; StGH; starch yield; RNAi; antisense; gene silencing; ahas; potato transformation; sbe2; sbe1; gbss; amylopectin; amylose; Starch; potato;

    Sammanfattning : Starch is a plant-derived polysaccharide with many uses in different food and non-food applications. In this thesis, the production of two novel potato starch qualities, amylopectin and high-amylose, and the modifications and the characteristics of the produced plants and starches are described.
