Evolution of transport specificity and potassium requirement in membrane pyrophosphatases
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-09-07)
My PhD research project focused on membrane-bound inorganic pyrophosphatases (mPPases). mPPases are integral membrane proteins that hydrolyze pyrophosphate (PPi) and transport H+ and/or Na+ ions across membranes thereby ...
Ferredoxin-NADP+ oxidoreductases and protein acetylation in the regulation of photosynthesis
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-08-15)
Photosynthesis sustains life on Earth by converting carbon dioxide into organic compounds which can be utilized as an energy source by non-photosynthetic organisms. Photosynthetic light reactions produce NADPH and ATP, the ...
σ54-välitteisen transkription initiaatio ja Synechocystis sp. PCC6803
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-01-29)
Sigmafaktorien tehtävä on tunnistaa promoottori ja avustaa RNA polymeraasia (RNAP) transkription aloituksessa. Bakteereilla on useita sigmafaktoreita, jotka säätelevät eri geenien ekspressiota. Sigmafaktorit jaetaan σ70 ...
On singlet oxygen, photoinhibition, plastoquinone, and their interconnections
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-12-18)
In oxygenic photosynthesis light is captured in series by two protein complexes: photosystem II and photosystem I (PSI and PSII). Electron transfer from PSII to PSI is mediated by the plastoquinone (PQ) pool. Despite being ...
Strategies for analyzing the regio- and stereospecific structures of individual triacylglycerols in natural fats and oils
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-12-07)
Food lipids are mainly found in the form of triacylglycerols (TAG) containing three structurally identical or different fatty acids. The positional distribution of fatty acids is under genetic control. In TAG biosynthesis, ...
Wastewater treatment with algae
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-06-16)
Microalgae have been under investigation as alternatives for wastewater treatment for the last 60 years. However, we are yet to see an algal based process to be trusted as a treatment strategy on a large scale. At present, ...
The Importance of natural colors in food for the visual attractiveness of everyday lunch
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-09-25)
Food is always seen to possess colors. Colors are one of the first sensory stimuli in the perception of food, and color cues are utilized to imagine the expected taste, flavor and liking of food. Although the importance ...
Upconverting nanoparticles in bioaffinity assays : new insights and perspectives
(Turun yliopisto, 2019-10-18)
Photon upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) are promising reporters for supersensitive bioaffinity assays because they can be detected completely without autofluorescence background. This is enabled by anti-Stokes shifted ...
The biological role of omega subunit of cyanobacterial RNA polymerase
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-08-18)
ABSTRACT
Cyanobacteria are important primary producers performing oxygenic photosynthesis using CO2 or HCO3- as a carbon source. Active adjustment of gene expression according to environmental cues depends on the RNA ...
Kollageenireseptori α2-integriini säätelee eturauhassyöpäsolujen geeniekspressiota ja invaasiota
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-03-27)
Syövän kantasolut ovat kantasolunkaltaisia erilaistumattomia syöpäsoluja, jotka pystyvät synnyttämään uuden kasvaimen. Syövän kantasolujen solusykli on hitaampaa ja ne kestävät syöpähoitoja paremmin kuin erilaistuneet ...
