KOSK-Katalyse og organisk syntetisk kjemi

Synthesis of Agelasines and Analogs, and Evaluation of Their Bioactivities

Agelasines are 7,9-dialkylpurinium salts isolated from marine sponges (Agelas sp.) and asmarines are neutral purine derivatives isolated from Raspaila sp. sponges. These two classes of natural products are structurally related; they both contain terpenoid side chains. Up till now only a few agel...

Palaeobiology of Silurian and Devonian eurypterids and scorpions

Arthropods (crustaceans, chelicerates, insects and myriapods) are the most diverse and abundant group of animals on our planet today, and have been since the Cambrian. The most diverse group of chelicerates during the Palaeozoic was the aquatic eurypterid s, with about 300 different species. The...

Use of genome-based microarray analyses to understand the oxidative stress response of an anaerobic microorganism growing at 100°C

Aerobic organisms require molecular O2 for energy conservation. This is a mixed blessing, however, as extremely reactive O2 derivatives (ROS) are produced during normal metabolism that can damage all cellular components. ROS have been implicated in a wide variety of human diseases, including can...

Evolution of chloroplasts: addressing the genomic processes behind acquisition of secondary and tertiary organelles

The dinoflagellate chloroplasts (plastids) originate from eukaryotic photosynthetic endosymbionts. Rather than being derived from a single group (being monophyletic) the plastids of dinoflagellates are originate from several organism groups and are thus of polyphyletic origin. Most dinoflagellat...
