Die Phyllosphäre als Lebensraum für Bakterien: Mechanismen der Interaktion epiphyller Bakterien mit der pflanzlichen Kutikula
(2020-12-16)
Die Phyllosphäre stellt einen lebensfeindlichen Lebensraum dar. Jedoch gibt es epiphytisch lebende Bakterien, die diesen Lebensumständen entgegenwirken und Mechanismen entwickelt haben, in diesem kargen Lebensraum Nährstoffe ......
Analyzing the Role of CyFIP2 in the Mouse Brain
(2020-06-19)
An important regulator of neuron outgrowth, growth cone motility and dendritic spine formation is the actin nucleator ARP2/3, a protein complex that functions in forming branched actin networks. ARP2/3 complex activity is ...
The effect of Western diet on the transcriptional memory of monocyte-derived cells
(2020-12-11)
Monocytes and monocyte-derived cells are very plastic and versatile immune cells that react to different environmental signals. These signals include not only pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associated ...
Structural and functional characterization of the HPV16 entry platform on the cell surface
(2020-12-16)
Human papillomaviruses (HPV) are small, non-enveloped DNA viruses that infect skin and mucosa tissues. Among the family, HPV16 is one of the most oncogenic subtypes responsible for a variety of cancers, including cervical, ...
Die konvergente Totalsynthese von Ajudazol A über Oxazolmodifikationen
(2020-07-14)
In der vorliegenden Dissertation wird die erste Totalsynthese von Ajudazol A, einem Vertreter der Naturstofffamilie der Ajudazole, beschrieben. Da diese zu den Polyketiden gehörende Naturstoffklasse selektiv die mitochondriale ...
Characterization of the Sulfite-Generating rDsrABL Complex of Allochromatium vinosum
(2020-12-16)
Microbial pathways of sulfur dissimilation have strongly contributed to the evolution of the biogeochemical sulfur cycle and still play a major role in it today. Dissimilatory sulfite reductases, which occur in both sulfate ......
Functional Integration of Floral Plant Traits: Shape and Symmetry, Optical Signal, Reward and Reproduction in the Angiosperm Flower
(2020-05-12)
Pollination syndromes represent groups of floral phenotypes that have originated and diversified in interaction with biotic and abiotic pollen vectors. Plant trait pattern that constitute respective syndromes have been ...
Underwater flight in sea turtles and plesiosaurs: Dissection, muscle reconstructions, analog models, and finite element structure analyses inform on flipper twisting and muscle forces in plesiosaurs
(2020-08-13)
This dissertation contributes to our understanding of plesiosaur locomotion by providing foreflipper and hindflipper muscle reconstructions and studying aspects of their muscle physiology (functions, forces, muscle length ......
The Role of TRIM71 in Male Germ Cell Development
(2020-09-02)
Germ cells are the key to continuation of life as they are the unique cell lineage capable to transfer the complete genetic information to the next generation. Both, infertility and testicular cancers are usually originating ......
Simultaneous identification of nucleotide-modified aptamers with different properties by multiplexed click-SELEX
(2020-06-18)
Voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSC) are important key regulators in excitable tissue that initiate and propagate the action potential in specifically excitable tissue such as brain nerves or muscle. In order to understand ...
