Analog models of the lateral spreading of a thick three-layer crust : implications for the Svecofennian orogen in Finland
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2016-09-23)
Our knowledge of the crustal structure of the Precambrian Svecofennian orogen has been enhanced during the last decade. Much of the new knowledge is due to the deep seismic reflection studies (Finnish Reflection Experiments; ...
Chemical changes in biomass during torrefaction
(Åbo Akademi University, Johan Gadolin Process Chemistry Centre, 2016-01-22)
Torrefaction is moderate thermal treatment (~200-300 °C) of biomass in an inert atmosphere. The torrefied fuel offers advantages to traditional biomass, such as higher heating value, reduced hydrophilic nature, increased ...

Protein adsorption and cell adhesion to nanostructured paper coatings
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2016-12-16)
Protein coatings can be prepared in order to take advantage of their biological functions such as specific binding properties and the ability to enhance or reduce cellular adhesion. The physicochemical surface properties ...
Targeting oncogenic signaling proteins : new insights using a FRET-based chemical biology approach
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2016-01-15)
Cancer affects more than 20 million people each year and this rate is increasing globally. The Ras/MAPK-pathway is one of the best-studied cancer signaling pathways. Ras proteins are mutated in almost 20% of all human ...
Nanoclustering augmentation : a novel mechanism of Ras activation in cancer
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2016-02-12)
Proteins of the Ras family are central regulators of crucial cellular processes, such as proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. Their importance is emphasized in cancer, in which the isoforms H-ras, N-ras and K-ras ...
Models to study intermediate filament dynamics and functions
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2016-01-08)
Intermediate filaments are part of the cytoskeleton and nucleoskeleton; they provide cells with structure and have important roles in cell signalling. The IFs are a large protein family with more than 70 members; each ...
Separating deviant and non-deviant sexual preferences with a dual-target rapid serial visual presentation task
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2016-08-20)
Moving lipids : ceramides, glycosphingolipids and the glycolipid transfer protein
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2016-05-20)
Lipid movement in cells occurs by a variety of methods. Lipids diffuse freely along the lateral plane of a membrane and can translocate between the lipid leaflets, either spontaneously or with the help of enzymes. Lipid ...
The role of keratin intermediate filaments in the colon epithelial cells
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2016-02-18)
Keratins (K) are cytoskeletal proteins mainly expressed in the epithelium and constitute the largest subgroup of intermediate filaments (IFs). Simple epithelial keratins (SEKs) K7-K8 and K18-K20 are the major IF elements ...
