cDNA clones encoding the catalytic subunit and the 65-kDa regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 2A (PR65) from Drosophila melanogaster have been isolated by homology screening with the corresponding human cDNAs. The Drosophila clones were used to analyze the spatial and temporal expression of the transcripts encoding these two proteins. The Drosophila PR65 cDNA clones contained an open reading

BackgroundSwift identification and diagnosis of gastrointestinal infections are crucial for prompt treatment, prevention of complications, and reduction of the risk of hospital transmission. The radiological appearance on computed tomography could potentially provide important clues to the etiology of gastrointestinal infections. We aimed to describe features based on computed tomography of patien

Background: The delineation of intraprostatic lesions is vital for correct delivery of focal radiotherapy boost in patients with prostate cancer (PC). Errors in the delineation could translate into reduced tumour control and potentially increase the side effects. The purpose of this study is to compare PET-based delineation methods with histopathology. Materials and methods: The study population c

This study has been conducted in an effort to establish more suitable and accurate scoring model we use in everyday practice. Among the specific outcome prediction models, in 1989 Parsonnet et al elaborated a method of uniform risk stratification for evaluation of the results of cardiac surgery procedures. We have tested two forms of the Parsonnet score, Initial and Modified Parsonnet score, in ou

The world's fisheries have been in decline for more than forty years. In Mexico, about 80% of the fishery resources are at maximum capacity levels or overexploited. Given the magnitude of the problem, there is a need for solutions that involve all actors in the fish supply chain. However, solutions and research on how actors in the middle of the supply chain such as restaurants can be integrat

The response of marine Vibrio sp. strain S14 (CCUG 15956) to long-term (48-h) multiple-nutrient starvation (i.e., starvation for glucose, amino acids, ammonium, and phosphate simultaneously) can be described as a three-phase process. The first phase, defined as the stringent control phase, encompasses an accumulation of guanosine 5'-diphosphate 3'-diphosphate (ppGpp) and decreases in RNA and prote

Lagging fires pose a significant safety risk in industrial systems where organic contaminants interact with lagging (insulation) materials. This study used isothermal calorimetry to investigate factors influencing the self-heating and ignition propensity of various C18-based substances and rapeseed oil, as contaminants in the lagging. The contaminant and lagging under investigation were added to g

För att tillskrivas straffrättsligt ansvar är ett grundläggande brottskriterium i många länders straffrättssystem att den potentiella gärningsmannen är tillräknelig. En lagöverträdare som har saknat förmåga att förstå och kontrollera sitt handlande betraktas ha en begränsad ansvarsförmåga och undantas därmed från straffrättsligt ansvar. Tillräknelighet utgjorde en brottsförutsättning i 1864-års svTo be held criminally liable, a requirement in the legal systems of many countries is that the potential perpetrator is accountable (tillräknelig). An offender who has lacked the ability to understand and control his actions is often considered unaccountable and is thus exempted from criminal liability. Accountability was a prerequisite for a crime in the Swedish Penal Code of 1864. The criminal j

“You can’t host someone without explaining the rules of the house” – How international students at Lund University make sense of Lund University’s COVID-19 communication, and how employees at Lund University’s Central External Relations team have assisted international students with sensegiving processes of Sweden’s COVID-19 recommendations and regulations. The present qualitative study analyzed h

The master thesis is a qualitative case study and interview study. In the case study employees from six different construction projects in Scania have been interviewed. The respondents were project managers, produ

Uppsatsen behandlar det engelska inflytandet på genomförandet av 1766 års tryckfrihetsförordning. Sverige var det första landet i världen att införa tryckfrihet som en grundlagsskyddad rättighet i och med TF 1766. En tidig from av tryckfrihet hade dock redan utvecklats i England under 1600-talet. Utöver tryckfriheten finns det även intressanta konstitutionella likheter länderna emellan som motiverThis essay deals with the English influence on the implementation of Sweden’s Freedom of Press Act of 1766. Sweden was with this the first country to introduce freedom of the press as a constitutionally protected right. An early form of freedom of the press had, however, already emerged in England during the 17th century. In addition to the freedom of the press, there are also interesting constitu

För samhällsviktiga verksamheter som drivs av offentliga aktörer finns lagkrav på att utföra risk- och sårbarhetsanalyser, vilka ska innehålla beroendeanalyser. Dock finns det en brist på vägledning gällande utförande av dessa analyser. Ett av de starkaste beroenden som finns i samhället idag är elberoendet. Därför finns ett intresse för att undersöka hur elberoendet analyseras i praktiken inom saIn Sweden, risk- and vulnerability assessments, including dependency analyses, are required by law for public actors who are of vital societal functions or critical infrastructure. However, there is a lack of guidance regarding how to perform this kind of analysis. Electrical power is one of the strongest dependencies of our society today. Thus, it is interesting to examine how the dependency of e

Previous studies have pointed to a need for further research regarding young women with autism and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or experiences of trauma, especially within psychiatric social work. The aim of this study was to examine how social workers reflect on their experiences and knowledge of trauma among young women with autism. Furthermore, the aim was to deepen the understanding o

A growing population and environmental pressure impose the obligation for more sustainability on food systems. Shifting from animal- and fish-based products to more environmentally benign protein sources is a crucial element in this transition. Single-cell protein refers to the edible biomass from microorganisms such as fungi, yeast or algae and is a promising way to source proteins on an industri

The effects of climate change are becoming increasingly visible and will have detrimental impacts on society’s health and safety, ecosystems and the economy, especially at the local scale. As a response, municipalities all over the world are setting up climate adaptation strategies, as is also the case in the Netherlands. However, many of the proposed measures require action not only on public but

Gestures are used in a pragmatic way in interactive contexts such as conversation. Agreement between interlocutors is an ordinary aspect of talk-in-interaction, which is expressed through various types of utterances and gestures. The interlocutors’ status, such as gender and familiarity, may affect both their verbal and non-verbal behavior as previous research has shown. This study investigates th

I det här arbetet har målet varit att syntetisera ett flertal olika metallbaserade kemiska föreningar som skulle kunna användas som antimalariamediciner i framtiden. Föreningarna har syntetiserats utifrån tidigare vetskap om mediciner och problem med resistens. Tyvärr erhölls inte resultaten som förväntats i arbetet men ger vägledning inför framtida försök. Malaria är en sjukdom som är utspridd öMalaria is a disease that affects about 228 million persons every year. It is a deadly disease caused by a Plasmodium parasite, spread by female Anopheles mosquitos. Today there is no cure, but it can be treated with medicine and taken in prevention. Unfortunately, the parasite is getting resistant to the drugs on the market. The most common drug is chloroquine which was discovered in 1934 and ha

With the publication of 'Garden Cities of To-Morrow' in 1898, Ebenezer Howard gave the go-ahead to the Garden City Movement. Howard’s concept of the garden city arose from his anti-capitalist critiques. Many industrial cities in the United Kingdom were facing urbanization problems, leading to the working class living in terrible circumstances in the suburban areas. This process caused a po

Hydropower is simply the largest source of renewable energy in the Nordic countries, where It compose around 90% of power production in Iceland, 70% in Norway, 40% in Sweden and 20% in Finland. Mountainous terrain and abundance in the surface water is a significant contributing factor in hydropower production. Hydropower is also considered more reliable and continuous than other forms of renewable
