  1. 16. Sustainable management of the African elephant – stakeholder solutions to a human-wildlife conflict

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Varwi Jacob Tavaziva; [2023]
    Keywords : sustainability; hunting; stakeholders; meat; bees; chillies;

    Abstract : Densities of African elephants have increased in southern Africa, reaching a population size of 45000 in some protected areas such as Hwange National Park, which is beyond the estimated carrying capacity of 15000. The overpopulation of elephants at Hwange National Park has stimulated considerable debates among stakeholders about the effective and sustainable approach to managing elephants. READ MORE

  3. 17. Recombinant expression and purification of sugar beet Phytoglobins in Escherichia Coli BL21 (DE3) including metabolic engineering of the heme biosynthesis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi; Lunds universitet/Beräkningskemi

    Author : Pennie Lindblom; Olivia Geel; [2023]
    Keywords : Phytoglobin; Heme; δ-ALA; qPCR; SDS-PAGE; Bacterial cultivation; Escherichia coli; BvPgb1.2; ÄKTA; Applied biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : The protein hemoglobin (Hb) is vital for us humans to ensure enough oxygen replacement in the body. Hb-resembling proteins also exist in plants, these are called phytoglobins (Pgbs). Pgbs are very interesting since they can play a considerable role in the development of blood substitutes and iron supplements for human use. READ MORE

  4. 18. Hästens individuella stressrespons : med fokus på fysiologiska och beteendemässiga förändringar

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Sandra Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : beteende; fysiologi; häst; individuell variation; stress; stresshanteringsstil;

    Abstract : Hästar är sociala flockdjur och anpassade för att i det vilda leva i familjegrupper. De är även bytesdjur och har därför utvecklat ett flykt- och försvarsbeteende. Förhindrande av dessa naturliga beteenden kan resultera i stress som kan visas som beteendemässiga och fysiologiska förändringar. READ MORE

  5. 19. Predicting Protein Stability with Machine Learning

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Biofysikalisk kemi

    Author : Lucas Carlsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Protein Stability; Biophysical Chemistry; Thermodynamics; Machine Learning; Deep Learning; Protein Language Model; Biochemistry; Multiple Sequence Alignment; Bioinformatics; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Protein stability is a property of high importance and is of interest in a variety of fields. It determines if a protein has its native fold and can be of influence in certain diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. READ MORE

  6. 20. Effect of DNAJB6 on α-synuclein amyloid fibril aggregation and dis-aggregation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Biofysikalisk kemi

    Author : Josef Getachew; [2023]
    Keywords : α-synuclein; alpha-synuclein; chaperones; DNAJB6; the unhappy chaperone; parkinsons disease; biophysical chemistry; biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Amyloid proteins are a group of proteins with the ability to form large fibrillar aggregates, identifiable by their cross-β core structure. These aggregates are linked to several different neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease and due to the growing rate of people diagnosed, there is a need to combat these diseases.
