Motstånd är ett vanligt problem vid förändringsarbete. I detta konferenspapper tolkas motstånd som en begäran om inflytande i ledningens beslutsfattande med avseende på förändringen. Här väljer ledningen en strategi – mer eller mindre medarbetarinflytande. I offentlig verksamhet måste denna ledningsstrategi kunna legitimeras mot principaler och samhälle. Det är därför särskilt viktigt att förstå h

Intranasal immunization of mice with Rib, a cell surface protein of group B streptococcus (GBS), conjugated to or simply coadministered with the recombinant cholera toxin B subunit, induces systemic immunoglobulin G (IgG) and local IgA antibody responses and confers protection against lethal GBS infection. These findings have implications for the development of a human GBS vaccine.

New chemical probes were synthesized to label galectin-3. They are based on the high affinity thiodigalactoside ligand. The probes were synthesized with benzophenone or acetophenone moieties as the photolabel for covalent attachment to the protein. Besides labeling the protein, these aromatic photolabels also greatly enhance the affinity of the probes towards galectin-3, due to the interaction of

In this paper the different algebraic varieties that can be generated from multiple view geometry with uncalibrated cameras have been investigated. The natural descriptor, V-n, to work with is the image of P-3 in P-2 x P-2 x ... x P-2 under a corresponding product of projections, (A(1) x A(2) x ... x A(m)). Another descriptor, the variety V-b, is the one generated by all bilinear forms between pai

Antibody-based microarrays are a novel technology that hold great promise in proteomics. Microarrays can be printed with thousands of recombinant antibodies carrying the desired specificities, the biologic sample (e.g., an entire proteome) and any specifically bound analytes detected. The microarray patterns that are generated can then be converted into proteomic maps, or molecular fingerprints, r

Pili of Neisseria gonorrhoeae are phase-variable surface structures that mediate adherence to host target cells. Each pilus is composed of thousands of major pilus subunits, pilins, pilus-associated protein PilC, and possibly other components. Piliated and nonpiliated gonococcal clones may secrete a soluble smaller pilin (S-pilin) that is cleaved after amino acid 39 of the mature pilin protein. He

Proteins fold on a mu s-ms time scale. However, the number of possible conformations of the polypeptide backbone is so large that random sampling would not allow the protein to fold within the lifetime of the universe, the Levinthal paradox. We show here that a protein chain can fold efficiently with high fidelity if on average native contacts survive longer than non-native ones, that is, if the d

Annotated translation (with introduction and commentary) of Mao Zedong's three speeches at the Moscow Meeting of Representatives of Communist and Workers' Parties in November 1957.

HERA provides a unique possibility to investigate the dependence of multiple interactions on transverse interaction sizes through variation of the photon virtuality Q2. In order to observe effects of multiple interactions at Q2 substantially different from zero we have to look into regions of phase space where resolved processes dominate over direct ones. The forward jet production at small values

Background. A recent rise in the incidence of prostate cancer and a more favorable outcome have increased the proportions of other causes of death in affected men. Extending the survival of prostate cancer patients thus requires knowledge of all causes of death. Methods. Data on the population, cancers, and causes of death were gathered from the nationwide Swedish Family-Cancer Database. A Cox reg
