N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes of Titanium vel Class of Catalysts for the Copolymerization of Cyclohexene Oxide with CO2
(Doctoral thesis, 2018-04-27)Regarding environmental, economic and political issues, the utilization of CO2 as C1 chemical feedstock has received a worldwide interest in the last decade. Indeed CO2 is considered as a greenhouse gas (submitted to strict ... -
The N-terminal acetyltransferase Naa10 is essential for zebrafish development
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-08-06)N-terminal acetylation, catalysed by N-terminal acetyltransferases (NATs), is among the most common protein modifications in eukaryotes and involves the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl-CoA to the α-amino group of ... -
N-terminal modifications of cellular proteins: the enzymes involved, their substrate specificities and biological effects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-06-16)The vast majority of eukaryotic proteins are N-terminally modified by one or more processing enzymes. Enzymes acting on the very first amino acid of a polypeptide include different peptidases, transferases, and ligases. ... -
NAA10 dysfunction with normal NatA-complex activity in a girl with non-syndromic ID and a de novo NAA10 p.(V111G) variant - a case report
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Background: The NAA10-NAA15 (NatA) protein complex is an N-terminal acetyltransferase responsible for acetylating ~ 40% of eukaryotic proteins. In recent years, NAA10 variants have been found in patients with an X-linked ... -
NAA10 mutation causing a novel intellectual disability syndrome with Long QT due to N-terminal acetyltransferase impairment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-11-02)We report two brothers from a non-consanguineous Irish family presenting with a novel syndrome characterised by intellectual disability, facial dysmorphism, scoliosis and long QT. Their mother has a milder phenotype including ... -
Naive and adapted utilization of the GPU for general purpose computing
(Master thesis, 2017)In this thesis we will see that adaptive utilization of the graphical processing unit (GPU) has much better performance than naive utilization, but it takes longer time to implement and requires more knowledge about ... -
Nano to Micro Scale Modeling of Hydrate Phase Transition Kinetics
(Doctoral thesis, 2017-05-23) -
Nano3P-seq: transcriptome-wide analysis of gene expression and tail dynamics using end-capture nanopore cDNA sequencing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)RNA polyadenylation plays a central role in RNA maturation, fate, and stability. In response to developmental cues, polyA tail lengths can vary, affecting the translation efficiency and stability of mRNAs. Here we develop ... -
Nanodiamond-treated flax: improving properties of natural fibers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Synthetic fibers are used extensively as reinforcement in composite materials, but many of them face environmental concerns such as high energy consumption during production and complicated decommissioning. Natural fibers ... -
Nanodiamond-treated Flax: Reducing Erosion on Wind Turbine Blades
(Doctoral thesis, 2024-10-03)Arbeidet som presenteres i denne oppgaven undersøker nye materialer for vindturbinblader som er mer erosjonsbestandige enn de vanlig brukte glassfiber-forsterkede komposittene (GFRCs). Med den pågående økningen i størrelsen ... -
Nanofabrication and simulation of nanogratings for geometric induced doping in photovoltaic application
(Master thesis, 2024-08-01)Geometrisk indusert doping, som et nytt alternativ til tradisjonelle ione dopings metoder for produksjon av silisium baserte solceller, blir utforsket i denne avhandlingen, noe som kan forbedre solcellenes levetid og ... -
Nanometer-Resolution Mask Lithography with Matter Waves: Near-Field Binary Holography
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Mask-based pattern generation is a crucial step in microchip production. The next-generation extreme-ultraviolet- (EUV) lithography instruments with a wavelength of 13.5 nm are currently under development. In principle, ... -
Nanoplasmonic laser fusion response to Földes and Pokol
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Földes and Pokol in their letter “Inertial fusion without compression does not work either with or without nanoplasmonics” criticized our works. Here, we refute their argumentation. Our proposed improvement is the combination ... -
Nanoscale organolanthanum clusters: Nuclearity-directing role of cyclopentadienyl and halogenido ligands
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Tetramethylaluminato/halogenido(X) ligand exchange reactions in half-sandwich complexes [CpRLa(AlMe4)2] are feasible in non-coordinating solvents and provide access to large coordination clusters of the type [CpRLaX2]x. ... -
