Popular Abstract in Swedish Komplementsystemet är en grupp proteiner som tillhör det medfödda (icke anpassningsbara) immunförsvaret hos människan. De verksamma komponenterna (ett 15-tal) förekommer i blodet, de flesta i en inaktiv form. Olika delar av komplementsystemet aktiveras av speciella molekylstrukturer, bl.a. strukturer i bakteriers cellväggar (alternativa vägen och MBL-vägen för komplemenThe autoimmune disease Systemic Lupus Erythematosus is associated with hereditary deficieny of early components from the classical pathway of complement activation, but not with deficiency of complement component C3 or of the alternative pathway components. The classical pathway is involved in elimination of pathological immune complexes from the circulation by transport via complement receptor ty

Popular Abstract in Swedish Allt levande består till stor del av proteiner. De bygger upp muskler och hår, transporterar syre i blodet och ser till att kemin i kroppen fungerar som den ska. Men hur tillverkas då dessa proteiner? Jo i alla celler finns ribosomer, proteinfabriker. En bakterieribosom är ungefär 0.02 mikrometer stor. Den är sammansatt av proteiner och RNA-kedjor. RNA utgör den funktioTranslation is a central biological process, that is catalysed by a machinery consisting of RNA and protein. In this thesis three different protein components of the bacterial protein synthesis system have been structurally studied. Ribosome recycling factor (RRF) is essential for the recycling step of the translation cycle, elongation factor SelB is a specialised elongation factor needed for co-t

We constructed hydrodynamical model atmospheres for mid M-type main-, as well as pre-main-sequence objects. Despite the complex chemistry encountered in such cool atmospheres a reasonably accurate representation of the radiative transfer is possible. The detailed treatment of the interplay between radiation and convection in the hydrodynamical models allows to study processes usually not accessibl

Reading Political Theology in light of the later developed concrete-order thinking, this essay draws attention to the understanding of law, which allows Schmitt to present the sovereign as simultaneously standing inside and outside the legal order. In addition, the particular way of ordering the political community, which Schmitt’s notion of sovereignty advances, is also explored. The essay sugges

The overall level of education is increasing in Europe. This article focuses on women's educational attainment and especially on differences in expansion rates in Germany, Portugal and Swedn. The author argues that an understanding of the expansion of the number of women in education must consider - in addition to the structure of the educational system - recent economic, demographic, social and c

By examining the reception of Edme Boursault’s first fable comedy, Ésope (1690), the paper discusses the historical prerequisites of an interlacing of fable and comedy. The several 18th century translations of Boursault’s drama often have been taken as a pretext for the success of his genre experiment. The fusion of fable and comedy was, however, not in all respects in line with literary horizons

Caesiated InAs(111)B (1 x 1) and InAs(111)A (2 x 2) surfaces have been studied by photoelectron spectroscopy. On the InAs(111)B a new (root 3 x root 3)R30 degrees reconstruction was observed. During Cs evaporation remarkably small changes are observed in the lone pair states, and no sign of an accumulation layer at the surface can be observed. Instead, the additional charge provided by Cs is rapid

1H-[1,2,3]-Triazol-1-yl mannosides have been synthesized as inhibitors for the beta-galactoside-binding family of galectin proteins. Easier synthetic access to C1 in mannose, as compared to C3 in galactose, for attachment of affinity-enhancing triazoles rendered a synthetic advantage. The best mannose-derived inhibitor for galectin-9N, 4-benzylaminocarbonyl-1H-[1,2,3]-triazol-1-yl beta-D-mannopyra

Aims: A single cryoballoon (CB) application per vein for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) could save time and was therefore compared to the standard approach of two consecutive CB applications for acute and long-term efficacy and safety.Methods and results: Patients with symptomatic AF were randomized to a single CB application per vein guided by an Achieve®

The chapter presents the liturgical year, in particular the interpretation(s) of the liturgical year found in sermons and Biblical commentaries from the Benedictine abbey of Admont in the twelfth century.

Popular Abstract in Swedish En indikator-jon för en kvantdator Ända sedan transistorn uppfanns 1948 har datorer blivit allt mer kraftfulla. Trots den enorma utveckling som skett finns det fortfarande problem som är för svåra för en dator att lösa. Ett exempel är simulering av stora molekyler, t.ex. proteiner, vilket skulle vara användbart inom medicin och biologi, bland annat för att förutsäga hRare-earth ions doped into a transparent crystal can have optically excited states with coherence times of milliseconds and hyperfine levels with coherence times of hours when cooled down to liquid helium temperatures. This makes them attractive for developing quantum computing hardware. A quantum transistor can be implemented in a rare-earth-ion-doped crystal by utilizing a dipole blockade effe

Skogar täcker ca 31% av jordens landyta och lagrar stora mängder kol i biomassa och i marken. I klimatavtalet från Paris 2015 lyfts skogars roll som sänkor och reservoarer av kol fram och undertecknande länder uppmanas att implementera strategier för hållbart skogsbruk som ytterligare förstärker skogars roll som sänkor av växthusgaser. Ett aktivt skogsbruk påverkar klimat och miljö på många olika Forest ecosystems cover 31% of the terrestrial land area and store large amounts of carbon in biomass and in soils. The 2015 Paris Agreement recognizes the importance of sinks and reservoirs of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in forests and the importance of enhancing them through sustainable forest management policies. Managing forests for climate mitigation purposes is, however, complex since management
