(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)In the extracellular environment, the enzyme transglutaminase 2 (TG2) is involved in cell–matrix interactions through association with the extracellular matrix protein, fibronectin (FN). The 45 kDa gelatin-binding domain ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)The Ordovician was a time of drastic biological and geological change. Previous work has suggested that there was a dramatic increase in global diversity during this time, but also has indicated that regional dynamics and ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Transcription factors use a DNA‐binding domain to localize their action and a transactivation domain (tAD) to stimulate activation of the associated gene. Recent work has renewed interest in how tADs activate genes, which ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)Albumin is the most abundant protein in blood and plays a pivotal role as a multitransporter of a wide range of molecules such as fatty acids, metabolites, hormones, and toxins. In addition, it binds a variety of drugs. ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)Third-generation cephalosporins are a class of β-lactam antibiotics that are often used for the treatment of human infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria, especially Escherichia coli. Worryingly, the incidence of human ...

(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2013)The ridge-snowbed gradient is of high importance in alpine areas in structuring the vegetation cover. However, to what degree belowground fungal communities are affected by the gradient is much poorer understood. In this ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)Closely related transcription factors (TFs) can bind to the same response elements (REs) with similar affinities and activate transcription. However, it is unknown whether transcription is similarly orchestrated by different ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Reliable data on the distribution and threats facing primate species are crucial to identifying priority sites for conservation and designing effective management plans. Boutourlini’s blue monkey (Cercopithecus mitis ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2021)Altitudinal tree- and forest lines (TFLs) are two boundaries (but often abbreviated with one word to save space) in the transition zone that separates closed forest from treeless tundra in alpine regions. Due to the last ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Saline lakes are subject to numerous environmental impacts related to human activities, changing the chemical and biological natural conditions of the ecosystem. Sustainable development depends on the conservation of such ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2018)In northern Europe, the tick Ixodes ricinus is of particular concern, as it is the principal vector of the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) which is known to cause Lyme disease in humans, among other ...

(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2020)Environmental changes are affecting a great number of marine ecosystems. Many top predators are particularly vulnerable to such changes as they are contingent on the various prey species along the food chain and their ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)High host density combined with climate change may lead to invasion of harmful parasites in cervid (host) populations. Bot flies (Diptera: Oestridae) are a group of ectoparasites that may have strong impact on their hosts, ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Abstract The resistance and resilience provided by functional redundancy, a common feature of microbial communities, is not always advantageous. An example is nitrite oxidation in partial nitritation-anammox (PNA) reactors ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2021)Annelids are a group of lophotrochozoan worms comprising a large number of species. Historically, the phylogenetic relationship among them has been subject to a lot of research, and in recent times the backbone phylogeny ...
