AbstractAquaporins are membrane integral proteins that facilitate the transport of waterand/or other small neutral molecules across biological membranes in cells in allforms of life. Among the subfamilies of aquaporins in higher plants, the X IntrinsicProteins (XIPs) are the most recently discovered subfamily and the leastcharacterized. However, the aromatic/arginine (ar/R) selectivity filter and

Soils play a critical role in the carbon (C) cycle by regulating the atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels, and correspondingly the Earth’s climate. However, there are still countless questions of how biological and geochemical soil processes affect the C cycle. To be able to predict future implications on the Earth’s climate, we need to understand these processes. Globally, soils store more C tIron oxide nanoparticles are involved in several important biogeochemical processes. The interfaces between aqueous solutions and iron oxide nanoparticle surfaces are found everywhere in nature, and the chemical and microbial processes occurring at these complex interfaces control e.g. nutrient and contaminant availability and transport. Recently, it has been shown that certain ectomycorrhizal (EC

In the quest for a better future some unemployed EU-citizens travel to Sweden. Finding a job is difficult and many are instead making a living begging. Cars, tunnels, parks and other shady places of our society become temporary homes. The authorities demolish some of these “camps” and the residents are accused for stealing bicycles, dogs and garden gnomes. Rumours and myths start to grow. In Swed

Atmospheric aerosols are a highly complex and dynamic mixture of solid particles, liquid deplots and gases. They travel across the continents and affect global climate and human health in various ways, often negatively. One important aspect of research in atmospheric aerosols is the investigation of emissions to the atmosphere from various sources. Emission markers are compounds unique to their soAtmospheric aerosols are a highly complex and dynamic mixture of solid particles, liquid deplots and gases.

Popular Abstract in English Synthetic chemicals are the basis of the modern civilisation. Nowadays, they have a bad reputation, but it is only due to them that we are able to live healthier, longer, receive improving medical treatments, use the comforts of modern technologies and not die of thirst and starvation, despite the immense population growth. The main task of organic synthesis is to transThe ligand-directed C—H activation relies on a coordinating donor atom being in proximity to the C—H bond activated. Cyclometallation of 2-(1-naphthyl)-pyridine – a substrate containing both γ- and δ-positions in proximity to the directing nitrogen atom – was studied. Cycloruthenation and cyclopalladation result in γ-substitution and formation of the corresponding 5-membered metallacycles, which i
