Structure-based drug design applied to the antibacterial target MraY
(2019-12-10)Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest threats to human health of our time. We are being warned of a so-called post-antibiotic era, where a simple surgery or bacterial infection could kill human beings. Without the ... -
Gult är fult? Om vit linoljefärgs benägenhet att gulna
(Hantverkslaboratoriet Göteborgs universitet Mariestad, 2018)Rapporten tar utgångspunkt i det faktum att linolja gulnar kraftigt. Hur har man traditionellt förhållit sig till detta, och hur hanterar dagens hantverkare problemet? Undersökningen kombinerar studier av äldre litteratur, ... -
Time Resolved Diffraction Studies of Structural Changes in Sensory Rhodopsin
(2019-11-29)Responding to different light conditions is an essential process for many organisms on earth. Unicellular organisms are no exception to this and mechanisms for controlling cellular movement must often be sensitive ... -
Min plats i biosfären
(Institutionen för kulturvård, Göteborgs universitet, 2019)“Min plats i biosfären” är en skrift som presenterar forskningsresultat om vilken roll kulturmiljön och de kulturella ekosystemtjänsterna kulturarv och platsidentitet har för människors välbefinnande och för hållbar ... -
Microcrystallization in lipidic cubic phase and serial crystallography studies of cytochrome c oxidase
(2019-11-07)Life in all living organisms depend on chemical processes performed by proteins, which are molecular machineries encoded in the DNA. Cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) is a membrane protein essential for cellular respiration, a ... -
Metabolic communication between individual yeast cells
(2019-11-01)With the recent progress in sensitive cell manipulation and microfabrication techniques, glycolytic oscillations in yeast have been observed at a single-cell level. It was shown that individually, oscillating cells could ... -
Sustainable Kelp Aquaculture in Sweden
(2019-10-29)Seaweed aquaculture is gaining more interest worldwide, including Europe. However, despite its long coast seaweed farming is still very minor in Sweden. The overarching aim of this thesis is to develop sustainable cultivation ... -
DNA checkpoint override and redox signaling in Schizosaccharomyces pombe
(2019-10-25)This thesis covers intracellular stress signaling through genotoxic stress, overriding of checkpoint control, as well as cellular redox status in hypoxic and oxidative stress Papers I and II: Caffeine has been shown to ... -
A circular economy approach for sustainable feed in Swedish aquaculture: A nutrition and physiology perspective
(2019-10-25)One major challenge in aquaculture is the issue of fishmeal replacement as a protein source in aquafeeds. It is agreed that the rate of demand has now outpaced the rate of supply due to the rapid expansion of aquaculture. ... -
Electrochemical and microscopic analysis of chemical signalling in biological systems
(2019-10-01)Cellular communication is a prerequisite in multicellular organisms in order to survive. Many times, this communication occurs through the highly controlled and regulated release of chemical signals through a process known ... -
Calcium transport in the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas - in a changing environment
(2019-09-23)Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, is globally one of the most important farmed bivalve species. A prominent features of the C. gigas is the thick CaCO3 shell covering the body of the animal and protecting it from the ... -
Anti-Virulence Strategy Targeting Sortase A, A Structural Investigation of the Sortase A Enzyme, and the Identification, Synthesis, and Evaluation of Sortase A Inhibitors
(2019-09-20)The emergence of multi-resistant bacteria and their continuous spread is one of the greatest challenges when treating bacterial infections. Increased understanding of bacterial pathogenesis has revealed new strategies for ... -
Origin, evolution and biodiversity of the Neotropical herpetofauna: patterns and processes of the world’s richest and most threatened biota
(2019-09-16)The biological diversity of tropical America (the Neotropics) is astonishing. However, even among terrestrial vertebrates, most biogeographical patterns are not fully described nor understood, especially for many Neotropical ... -
Molecular biology of barnacle Balanus improvisus settlement
(2019-09-13)The aim of this thesis was to investigate molecular mechanisms of various aspects of barnacle settlement, using the acorn barnacle Balanus improvisus. This barnacle is a common fouling species and a model organism for ... -
Acclimation of boreal Norway spruce to climate change: Empirical and modelling approaches
(2019-09-04)The findings of this thesis have important implications for the projections of future carbon and water fluxes for the boreal region. The observed boreal longterm acclimation responses of respiration and stomatal regulation ... -
Development of Fluorescent Nucleobase Analogues - Intrinsically labelled nucleic acids for molecular binding investigations
(2019-09-04)This thesis focuses on the design, synthesis and utilization of fluorescent nucleobase analogues (FBAs). FBAs are an important class of compounds, used in the research of nucleic acids. The class of canonical FBAs, i.e. ... -
