Analysis of plasminogen-binding M proteins of Streptococcus pyogenes.

Group A streptococci are common human pathogens that cause a variety of infections. They express M proteins which are important cell wall-bound type-specific virulence factors. We have found that a set of strains, associated primarily with skin infections, express M proteins that bind plasminogen and plasmin with high affinity. The binding is mediated by a 13-amino-acid internal repeated sequence

Above and Below Graphene: Nanoparticle Chemistry and Interface Reactions

Popular Abstract in Swedish Många kemiska processer och reaktioner utspelas på ytan av material. Vissa fenomen, såsom korrosion, är uppenbara för blotta ögat, medan andra kan vara mindre uppenbara. Några saker som kanske inte direkt brukar associeras med ytor är katalytiska reaktioner (som oxidering av kolmonoxid, CO, till koldioxid, CO2), och elektriska egenskaper. Forskning på ytor kan, för att The work presented in this dissertation addresses two main topics: (i) graphene supported nanoparticles and their stability upon gas adsorption, and (ii) intercalation of different molecules under graphene and their reactions under graphene. From an interplay of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning tunneling microscopy, low energy electron diffraction, and density functional theory an atomic

A Culture of compliance: developing standards for fighting corruption

Abstract.Over the past decade, a new global regime of anti-corruption has taken shape. Pushed by NGOs such as Transparency International, and with coalitions of international organizations, Western governments, and private business circles, we now have a framework of conventions and regulations that impel governments and international firms to act with integrity and to prevent corruption in busine

Orientation reflected on register: from historical perspectives

Languages can be classified into three types, e.g. situation-oriented (e.g. Russian, Chienese, etc.), speaker-oriented (e.g. Bulgarian, Turkish, etc.) and hearer-oriented (e.g. English, Danish, etc.) (Durst-Anderssen 2005, 2006, 2008). In this paper, it is argued that the difference in spoken and written discourse can be compared to different patterns in these classificatory types, and historical

Bottenlös polisiär inkompetens

Polisens registrering av Romer betyder att staten Sverige inte respekterar grundläggande demokratiska och rättsstatliga principer som saklighet, objektivitet, proportionalitet, likabehandling och icke-diskriminering. Den är också ett brott mot Sveriges åtaganden enligt FN:s konvention om avskaffande av varje form av rasdiskriminering. Eftersom upprättandet av dessa register varit en del av Polisen
