Data-driven studies on the dynamics of reconstructed protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks facilitate investigation and identification of proteins important for particular processes or diseases and reduces time and costs of experimental verification. Modeling the dynamics of very large PPI networks is computationally costly.
We report on the fabrication of InAs nanowires coupled to superconducting leads with high critical current and widely tunable conductance. We implemented a double lift off nanofabrication Method to get very short nanowire devices with Ohmic contacts. We observe very high critical. currents of up to 800 nA in a wire with a diameter of 80 nm. The current- voltage characteristics of longer and suspen
Polskedansens historia i Sverige från 1600-talet till 1900-talet.
DNA gels were prepared by cross-linking and were examined with respect to the release of DNA as well as macromolecular cosolutes introduced into the gels. In particular the effect of exposure to ultraviolet light was examined for these photodegradable gels. Different cross-linker densities (0.5%, 1%, 3% and 5% ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether) of the DNA gels were used. Network mesh size and the e
In this study, we look for anthropogenic aerosol effects in southern Scandinavia's clouds under the influence of moderate levels of pollution and relatively weak dynamic forcing. This was done by comparing surface aerosol measurements with convective cloud microphysical profiles produced from satellite image analyses. The results show that the clouds associated with the anthropogenic-affected air
The membrane is often considered as the heart of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), and it is of pivotal importance for the involved transport phenomena and performance of the entire PEMFC. The Nafion(R) membrane is the most commonly used type of membrane in PEMFCs. In this paper, the nano-scale structure of the Nafion(R) membrane is reconstructed using dissipative particle dynamics.
Understanding of the maternal syndrome of pre-eclampsia has greatly improved over the past 5 years. Specifically, the notion has emerged that the placenta is a source of antiangiogenic factors, such as soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1, that can progressively impair the mother's vascular and glomerular function throughout pregnancy. This impairment can be harmless during normal pregnancy, but in
Breast-feeding is a known protective factor against breast cancer. Breast-feeding duration is influenced by hormone levels, milk production, and lifestyle factors. The aims were to investigate how breast-feeding duration and milk production affected tumor characteristics and risk for early breast cancer events in primary breast cancer patients. Between 2002 and 2008, 634 breast cancer patients in
Aims To investigate the causal role of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglycerides in coronary heart disease (CHD) using multiple instrumental variables for Mendelian randomization. Methods and results We developed weighted allele scores based on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with established associations with HDL-C, triglycerides, and low-density lipoprotein cholestero
Adsorption of uncharged homopolymers in good and theta solvents onto planar surfaces at various chain flexibility and polymer-surface attraction strengths was investigated by using a coarse-grained bead-spring polymer model and simulation techniques. Equilibrium properties of the interfacial systems were obtained from Monte Carlo simulations by monitoring the bead and polymer density profiles, the
Streptococcus pyogenes is an important human pathogen and surface structures allow it to adhere to, colonize and invade the human host. Proteins containing leucine rich repeats (LRR) have been indentified in mammals, viruses, archaea and several bacterial species. The LRRs are often involved in protein-protein interaction, are typically 20-30 amino acids long and the defining feature of the LRR mo
We perform a minimum distance analysis of a class of two-dimensional intersymbol interference (ISI) channels applicable to multitrack magnetic recording and orthogonal frequency division multiplex transmission systems. Exact minimum distance for a wide class of ISI responses is derived. The fundamental analytical technique is to transform the channel into an equivalent minimum phase channel. The r
Objective. Due to the high incidence of neonatal complications in diabetic pregnancies, the aim of our study was to investigate whether elective cesarean section could prevent adverse neonatal outcome. Design. Population-based study. Setting. Data were extracted from the Swedish Medical Birth Registry. Population. All women (n=13 491) with diabetic pregnancies during the period 1990-2007. Methods.
Väl fungerande bytespunkter är viktiga för kollektivtrafikens konkurrenskraft. Själva bytet, som är en del av varje resa, kan upplevas som en stor del av reskedjan, varför det är viktigt att bytestiden minimeras men även att bytespunkten erbjuder så hög komfort- och servicenivå som möjligt. Grunden för projektet är konstaterandet att våra kunskaper är bristfälliga när det gäller hur viktig bytespu
