The Structural Basis for inorganic Pyrophosphatase Catalysis and Regulation
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 417, 2011-06-01)
Inorganic pyrophosphatases (PPases) are essential enzymes for every living cell. PPases provide the necessary thermodynamic pull for many biosynthetic reactions by hydrolyzing pyrophosphate. There are two types of PPases: ...
Regulation of stress induced metabolic rearrangements in plants : from model species to crops
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-12-16)
In nature, plants are exposed to continuous changes in the environment. To ensure their growth and survival, plants have evolved intrincate molecular machinery that allows rapid adjustments in cellular functions in response ...
Glycosylation and Glycodiversification in Polyketide Antibiotics: Unraveling Biosynthetic Steps in Nogalamycin Formation
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 543, 2016-08-12)
Soil-dwelling Streptomyces bacteria are known for their ability to produce biologically active compounds such as antimicrobial, immunosuppressant, antifungal and anticancer drugs. S. nogalater is the producer of nogalamycin, ...
Early Life Intestinal Microbiota in Health and in Atopic Eczema
(Turun yliopisto, 2015-05-05)
Decrease in microbial contacts in affluent societies is considered to lie behind the rise in allergic and other chronic inflammatory diseases during the last decades. Indeed, deviations in the intestinal microbiota composition ...
Dynamic regulation of photosynthesis by chloroplast thioredoxin systems
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-08-08)
Oxygenic photosynthesis is sunlight-energized conversion of CO2 into
carbohydrates using electrons extracted from water. It occurs in
cyanobacteria and in their endosymbiotic evolutionary descendants, the
chloroplasts ...
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, ...
Acclimation responses of hydrogen producing cyanobacteria
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-09-14)
During recent years, cyanobacteria have been gaining popularity rapidly as a platform for CO2 sequestration and production of a wide range of industrially attractive products. Factors such as simple nutritional requirements, ...
Extended hydrogen photoproduction by nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 503, 2014-12-19)
Cyanobacteria are the only prokaryotic organisms performing oxygenic photosynthesis. They comprise a diverse and versatile group of organisms in aquatic and terrestrial environments. Increasing genomic and proteomic data ...
Homogeneous Assays for Simplified Screening of HLA-conferred Genetic Disease Risk
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 405, 2010-01-29)
The increasing incidence of type 1 diabetes has led researchers on a quest to find the reason behind this phenomenon. The rate of increase is too great to be caused simply by changes in the genetic component, and many ...
Unraveling the functional divergence of membrane-bound pyrophosphatases
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 513, 2015-05-08)
Inorganic pyrophosphatases (PPases) are enzymes that hydrolyze pyrophosphate (PPi)which is produced as a byproduct in many important growth related processes e.g. in the biosynthesis of DNA, proteins and lipids. PPases can ...
