Early events in T cell development

Popular Abstract in Swedish Immunförsvaret är till för att bekämpa patogener såsom bakterier, virus, parasiter och svamp. Det kan också bekämpa cancerceller även om dessa har en förmåga att undkomma till slut. För att kunna känna igen och eliminera främmande kroppar måste immunförsvaret kunna skilja på dem och våra kroppsegna ämnen. Immunförsvaret består av vita blodkroppar. Vita blodkroppar är enT cells constitute a heterogenous population of lymphocytes. Their unifying property is that they express surface bound antigen-receptors, called T cell receptors (TCRs). The TCR is a heterodimer composed of either TCRalpha and beta chain proteins (alphabeta TCR) or gamma and delta chain proteins (gammadelta TCR). Depending on which TCR isotype that is expressed, the T cells are divided into alpha

A scalable pipelined complex valued matrix inversion architecture

This paper presents a fast, pipelined and scalable hardware architecture for inverting complex valued matrices. The matrix inversion algorithm involves, a QR-factorization based on the squared Givens rotations algorithm, the application of a recurrence algorithm for inversion of an upper triangular matrix R, and a matrix multiplication of R-1 with Q. We show that traditional triangular

EMC Aspects of PMW Controlled Loads in Vehicles

The number of electrically driven loads in a modern vehicle is constantly increasing. Many loads that former were mechanically driven will in the future be driven by electricity. This implies that a number of electronic systems have to be packed together in the limited space in a vehicle. When different electronic systems are placed close to each other, there is always a risk for electromagnetic i

Direct and indirect effects of fish predation and excretion in aquatic food webs

The aim of this thesis was to elucidate the mechanisms by which planktivorous fish can affect planktonic communities in lakes and how they may affect benthic communities through their effects on planktonic communities. In a laboratory experiment, nutrients released by fish increased algal biomass and altered phytoplankton community structure, suggesting that fish can affect phytoplankton by direct

Amphorae from Caronia and Caronia Marina, Provincia di Messina, Sicily – Thin-Section analyses

The Amphorae was a common container for transportation of especially liquid goods in the Greco-Roman world. There are several known production sites of these vessels around the Mediterranean. The shapes of the different amphorae have been amply described and grouped according to different systems. There has also been several works describing the fabric of the vessels and also attempts to link vess

The Design and Structure Prediction of Protein Oligomers

Popular Abstract in English Proteins are a class of biological macromolecules that perform countless fundamental and diverse functions in living organisms. Chemically speaking, they are polymers built out of monomeric units called amino acids. All biological proteins are constructed out of 20 different amino-acid types. To form protein molecules, amino acids are linked together in a linear chain lThe minimum free energy state of a protein (the native state) is encoded by its amino-acid sequence. Due to the many torsional degrees of freedom (DOF) available to a polypeptide chain, a vast number of conformations is possible. Therefore, to predict the native state of a protein directly from sequence, a computer algorithm must evaluate a large number of possible conformations using accurate sco

Biotechnological treatment of chlorophenol-contaminated water

Widespread presence of toxic and persistent pollutants in the environment, even at low concentrations, causes risks of adverse effects to human health and the ecosystem. Biological methods for treatment of water streams and removal of persistent pollutants are of great interest due to their simplicity, low cost, and mild operational conditions without harmful by-products. The purpose of this resea
