Untersuchungen zur Erweiterung des Substratspektrums von Gluconobacter oxydans
(2018-01-29)
Die vorliegende Arbeit befasste sich mit einem bislang weitgehend unbearbeiteten Bereich der Stammoptimierung des biotechnologisch und industriell wichtigen Essigsäurebakteriums Gluconobacter oxydans. Dieser Organismus ist ......
Characterization of the structural-functional impact of heterozygous missense mutations in genes of the blood coagulation factor XIII that cause mild Factor XIII deficiency
(2018-01-04)
The coagulation Factor XIII is a key player in hemostasis that is responsible for the last step of the coagulation cascade in which it covalently cross-links preformed fibrin clots to make them resistant to premature ......
Examining the Retention and Digestion of Functional Kleptoplasts in Solar-Powered Sea Slugs
(2018-01-18)
Sacoglossan sea slugs are the only metazoans known to sequester and retain functional chloroplasts within their digestive gland tubules, a process known as functional kleptoplasty. This ability coincides with the capacity ...
Characterization of the transcription factor ANAC058 and its role in suberin regulation
(2018-08-28)
The hydrophobic polymer suberin is present in plant roots. Its biosynthesis and composition is of importance for tolerance towards environmental stresses. In the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana transcription factors ......
Analysis of SCF+ cardiac cells in mice
(2018-08-28)
Proper regulation of c-kit receptor tyrosine kinase by its ligand, Stem Cell Factor (SCF), is essential for survival, growth, migration and differentiation of many types of stem/progenitor cells. However, its role in the ...
Ecological and host behavioural aspects of parasite dispersal in a simple and a complex host–parasite system
(2018-09-28)
If one is to understand how parasitic diseases spread within and among host populations, one has to take into account characteristics of the given parasite species, the host as well as of their common environment. To what ...
The role of the endocannabinoid receptor CB2 in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease
(2018-09-26)
Over the past years, an important role of the cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2) has been implicated in several neurological and immunological conditions, such as experimental autoimmune encephalitis, stroke, memory, neuropathic ......
Schlüsselenzyme der Methanogenese und der Energiekonservierung im Darmbewohner Methanomassiliicoccus luminyensis
(2018-10-30)
Die vorliegende Arbeit befasste sich mit der Untersuchung des im menschlichen Darm lebenden, methanogenen Archaeons Methanomassiliicoccus luminyensis. Da der Organismus immer noch der einzige in Reinkultur verfügbare ......
Phytyl Ester Synthases from Arabidopsis thaliana and Solanum lycopersicum
(2018-07-20)
Chlorophyll is the most abundant pigment in the biosphere, and its degradation leads to the release of large amounts of chlorophyll breakdown products, i.e. pheophorbide and phytol. Only a minor fraction of the released ......
The role of the AhR signaling pathway in regulation of gut-associated immune cells
(2018-07-16)
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is an important sensor for environmental polyaromatic chemicals and plays an essential role in immune regulatory processes, including maintenance of intestinal barrier integrity. AhR ...
