ENERGIX-Stort program energi

The future Norwegian energy system in a European context

Produksjon og bruk av energi i Norge vil i stor grad avhenge av utviklingen i våre naboland, i Europa og i resten av verden. Selv om fremtiden er usikker er det nyttig at vi kan forstå mer av sammenhengen mellom energisystemet i Norge og energisystemet i resten av Europa. Dette gjør oss i stand t...

Modelling NAD metabolism and its connection to the circadian clock

Most biological processes require energy and are tightly regulated. Energy is extracted from food supplies and eventually transformed into ATP, the universal energy carrier of the cell. These pathways consist of many reactions which involve NAD or NADP, s mall molecules which serve as intermediat...

Molecular signatures of long non-coding RNAs in breast cancer patients

Of the ~3.3 billion bases of the human genome, only about 2% code for proteins and until very recently, the remaining 98% have been considered to be 'junk'. However, large transcriptomic studies have shown that around 90% of the genome is actively transcr ibed of which a significant fraction may ...

Molecular Identification of Porin Channels in Plant Peroxisomes by Electrophysiological Analyses

Plant biomass production needs to increase world-wide to feed the growing world population and to meet the demands for cellulose-based biofuels. However, plant photosynthesis is inefficient because it is accompanied by photorespiration, which releases up to 30% of fixed carbon as CO2 in higher p...
