Information on protein dynamics is of central importance for the understanding how biological
function is effectuated by individual proteins as well as by well-adjusted interaction cascades within
the crowded cytoplasm. Protein dynamics comprises a hierarchy of processes ranging from
fluctuations of side chains and the backbone over interdomain motions to self-diffusion of the...

The function of proteins is closely linked to their structure. Protein structures, however, are not static but rather dynamic and increased understanding of these structural dynamics is crucial for increased understanding of proteins. We have employed time-resolved X-ray solution scattering as a direct structural probe to study the signal transduction in different photoreceptor proteins. We...

Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest threats to global health, according to the world health organization. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) is a group of molecules that are a natural part of the human immune system, shown to have effect against a broad spectrum of pathogens including both gram positive and gram negative bacteria.1 AMPs seem to be able to evade much of the bacterial...

The increasing demand for environmentally friendly surfactants has resulted in a comprehensive research to identify surfactants that are biodegradable, non-toxic and produced from sustainable raw materials. In this respect, alkylglycosides with one or more sugar molecules, have shown not only promising surface properties but also favourable characteristics regarding sustainability, especially...
