1. Impact of nitrogen availability and nitrogen structural composition on fungal enzymatic activity and growth : how nutrient availability governs response and development of three saprotrophic Basidiomycetes
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and EnvironmentAbstract : Fungi excrete a wide variety of extracellular enzymes to scavenge for nutrients, such as the often scarce yet essential nutrient nitrogen. All fungi produce highly specialized hydrolytic enzymes, e.g. peptidases, that depolymerize organic molecules. READ MORE

2. Structural studies of Arabidopsis Chloroplast Glutamyl Endopeptidase (CGEP)
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Molekylär biofysik; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : Peptidases play an essential role in cell machinery by regulating protein turnover and processing synthesized proteins for cellular transport. The chloroplast is a complex organelle present in plants that host several peptidases. READ MORE

3. How Substances in Agricultural Waste Material Can Be Used as Active Ingredients in Skin Care Products
University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)Abstract : Aging of the skin is an inevitable process that occurs throughout a lifetime and exposure to environmental pollutants is a factor accelerating this process. Phytochemicals present in plants possess biological activities known to protect or repair the skin cells and when used in skin care products they can slow down the skin aging process. READ MORE

4. Purification and refolding of a novel dipeptidyl peptidase III
University essay from Linköpings universitet/KemiAbstract : There is a continuous search for novel enzymes to complement the abilities of today’s commercially available enzyme and find tailor-fit alternatives to suit the diverse array of bio-based industries. One application could be to increase biogas yield by finding substrate degrading proteases that can be added to the anaerobic digestion process and survive degradation themselves. READ MORE
