Barmark, G. 2005. Functional studies of vesicular transport in yeast. Doctor’s dissertation. ISSN 1652-6880, ISBN 91-576-6909-0 A basic feature of eukaryotic cells is their compartmental organisation. To maintain this cellular order, a strictly regulated intracellular transport is essential. The compartments are defined by their lipid membranes and the transport between different compartments i...

Due to the increasingly complex nature of the modern supply chain networks (SCNs), a recent research trend has focussed on modelling SCNs as complex adaptive systems. Despite the substantial number of studies devoted to such hypothetical modelling efforts, studies analysing the topological properties of real world SCNs have been relatively rare, mainly due to the scarcity of data. This paper ai...

Red blood cell membrane cation transport was measured in five population-based surveys and two randomized, controlled, dietary intervention studies to examine its associations with demographic, biological, and dietary variables in free-living individuals. A total of 508 individuals, 255 with high blood pressure, were studied. Both sexes, blacks and whites, and several age groups were represente...

Isolated intestinal epithelial cells have been extremely useful for characterizing the nature of intestinal absorption processes and for providing insight into the energetics of Na(+)-dependent transport systems. This report describes a number of experimental approaches which have been used for investigating the specific epithelial transport systems involved in sugar absorption, but provides in...

The relationship between supply chain resilience and environmental sustainability (greening) has been a topic of peripheral discussion in the research literature. The aim in this paper is to investigate, from a supply chain modeling perspective, the extent to which supply chain greening and resilience strategies are supportive of each other. A strategic supply chain design model is introduced t...

Spherical tokamaks (STs) provide a challenging regime for the study of turbulent transport in magnetised plasmas, providing an opportunity to test gyrokinetic and MHD fluid turbulence theory under extreme conditions. The strong field curvature at low aspect ratio has an important influence on micro-stability; both aspect ratio and flow-shear affect transport and at high-β, electromagnetic effec...

The present communication is devoted to the description of the isolation, properties, and composition of a particulate unit which we shall refer to as the succinic dehydrogenase complex (SDC). The working hypothesis underlying this and subsequent communications in this series is that SDC is a unit of enzymatic action in the same sense as any well defined soluble enzyme. Since the discovery of s...
