  1. 1. Isolation of an ammonia-tolerant syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacterium originating from a thermophilic biogas digester

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Malin Tiefensee; [2023]
    Keywords : thermophilic; ammonia-tolerant; syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacterium;

    Abstract : Syntrophic relationships between fatty acid degrading bacteria and hydrogenotrophic methanogens are important for a well-functioning anaerobic degradation process during biogas production from organic waste material. This is particularly important in biogas processes fed protein-rich material as their degradation gives rise to high levels of ammonia, which inhibits many microorganisms. READ MORE

  3. 2. Structural and Functional Characterisation of the Human Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Simon Gripvall; [2023]
    Keywords : biochemistry; complex; MPC; proteoliposomes; pyruvate; transport; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The metabolism of pyruvate in the cell is abnormally regulated in several human diseases, such as type-II diabetes, cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, in which the human mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (HuMPC) sits at a pivotal point. It transports pyruvate across the inner mitochondrial membrane and consists of two proteins, MPC1 and MPC2, and is a potential drug target against these diseases. READ MORE

  4. 3. A Functionality Study of Mycoprotein

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Luying Zhang; [2022]
    Keywords : mycoprotein; protein isolation; protein functionalities; food technology; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Abstract : The mycoprotein was obtained from the company, Mycorena. The mycoprotein is a potential source of alternative protein of the animal origin used as the functional ingredients in the food industry. READ MORE

  5. 4. Isolation of Streptococcus salivarius from human oral samples and In vivo recombination cloning of EAL 2 of Streptococcus uberis C6344

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Thamida Tauhid; [2022]
    Keywords : Streptococcus uberis C6344; Streptococcus henryi; c-di-GMP; GGDEF domain protein; EAL domain protein; In vivo recombination cloning; Streptococcus salivarius; Streptococcus Selection Agar;

    Abstract : The second messenger cyclic diguanylate monophosphate (c-di-GMP) has been proven to be a central regulator for physiological and metabolic processes including biofilm formation and sessile to motile transitioning (1,2). The synthesis and degradation of c-di-GMP are regulated by GGDEF- respectively EAL-domain proteins. READ MORE

  6. 5. The role of P25 interacting transcriptional regulator VIP1 in activation of transcription.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Asma Kanon Hashi; [2022]
    Keywords : Rhizomania; BNYVV; expression clones; virulence factor P25; transcription; transient gene expression; VIP1 plant protein;

    Abstract : Rhizomania, caused by beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV), has been considered as an economically important disease around the world because of the extreme reduction in sugar beet yield and sugar content in affected plants. The spread of rhizomania all over the world, including the emergence of resistance- breaking virus isolates, have been become a major concern for the plant pathologists and plant breeders aiming at improving sugar beet resistance to   BNYVV as well as better understanding sugar beet-virus interactions during disease development.
