Photoactivation of photosystem II has been studied in the FUD 39 mutant of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii that lacks the 23 kDa extrinsic subunit of photosystem II. We have taken advantage of the slow photoactivation rate of FUD 39, earlier demonstrated in Rova, E. M., et al. [(1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 28918-28924], to study events in photosystem II during intermediate stages of the process. By measur

There are considerable biomass resources in the European Union (EU) and mature conversion technologies to exploit the potentials of bioenergy. The challenge confronting the EU and member states is how to accelerate the implementation of bioenergy systems. This paper contributes to the identification, analysis, and discussion of barriers for bioenergy in the EU. Adopting an innovative methodology i

Energy conservation plays a vital role towards sustainable development of meat processing. Energy costs for many meat plants represent the fourth highest operational cost. In meat processing, moderate levels of both electrical and thermal energy are consumed in wide range of processes and applications. However, energy efficiency improvement in the meat processing industry have been a focus to incr

Buildings account for a signifi cant proportion of the energy use thatgenerates greenhouse gases and consequently drives the ongoing climatechange. As the population of the world increases, the need for buildingsincreases, while the energy use needs to decrease. A reduction in energyuse and increased use of renewable energy are important measures forclimate change mitigation. A fi rst step in decr

This report has been written within the project Looking Back to Move Forward: a Social and Cultural History of Heating (JustHeat). The aim of the project is to unpack previous heating transitions at the home front since 1940 in order to enable more just and inclusive heating transitions in the future. The background is the notion that home heating transitions are deeply personal in the sense that

Trots de senaste årtiondenas betydande framsteg inom cancerforskningen, vilket bland annat avspeglas i ett ständigt ökande utbud av nya läkemedel, har cancerdiagnostiken, som bedrivs av patologer, inte utvecklats i samma takt. För att uppnå visionen om individualiserad cancerbehandling måste därför den kliniska patologin utveckla bättre verktyg för att kunna identifiera biologiska särdrag, s.k. biThe pathologist’s role is to deliver accurate diagnosis of disease, so as to enable optimal treatment strategies for individual patients. In the wake of the ‘omics revolution, with an increasing availability and impact of a wide range of molecular technologies, clinical pathology is currently undergoing a paradigm shift. However, despite the clear value of these technologies in further refining th

Forskningsområdet berör forskning om social utsatthet, ojämlikhet och sociala problem i en bred bemärkelse. Inom området ryms teman om bland annat fattigdom och hemlöshet. Forskningsprojekt inom området tillämpar en rad olika metoder och teorier för att analysera ojämlikhetens konsekvenser på flera nivåer, från den lokala till jämförande studier i ett internationellt perspektiv. Teorier om makt ocThe research area covers research on social vulnerability, inequality and social problems in a broad sense. The area includes the study of, among other things, poverty and homelessness. Research projects in the field apply diverse methods and theories to analyze the consequences of inequality on several levels, from the local to comparative studies in an international perspective. Theories of pow

In his recent work, Eco abandons his conventionalist theory of pictures, which was heavily censored by, among others, the present author. In so doing, however, Eco now goes to the other extreme, claiming that television images are like mirrors, which are no signs. It is my contention that Eco fails to come up with a more acceptable theory of iconicity. Since Eco is one of the few semioticians conc

The financing of energy efficiency measures and renovations is key to reaching energy efficiency targets for the housing sector. The purpose of this article is to add the Swedish case of how capital market funds have become accessible and used by public and private housing companies, in particular for energy efficiency measures. The core of this article are interviews with representatives of Swedi

This paper serves as an overview to the special session Circuits and Systems for 5G on IEEE International Conference on ASIC (ASICON) 2015. More specifically, we introduce two of enabling technologies for the coming 5G wireless era, namely massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technique and advanced coding techniques such as polar codes. Massive MIMO is a relatively new wireless communicat

Amassing the available solar energy over the Sahara desert, through the installation of a large-scale solar farm, would satisfy the world’s current electricity needs. However, such land use changes may affect the global carbon cycle, possibly offsetting mitigation efforts. Here a fully coupled Earth System model EC-Earth was used to investigate the impact of a Saharan solar farm on the terrestrial

While sensory perception is currently receiving quite a lot of attention across disciplines, little empirical research has focused on how people describe auditory experiences. Research on the representation of sound in fiction narratives has shown that sounds are frequently conceptualized as events whose descriptions are instantiated in domains other than sound proper, as in strong men banging the
