- A novel type of N-linked glycopeptides representing a major part of the glycans in human small intestinal epithelial cells from blood group A and O individuals were isolated by gel filtrations and affinity chromatography on concanavalin A-Sepharose and Bandeiraea simplicifolia lectin I-Sepharose. Sugar composition, methylation analysis, 1H NMR spectroscopy of the underivatized glycopeptides and FAB-mass spectrometry and electron impact-mass spectrometry of the permethylated glycopeptides indicated a tri- and tetra-antennary structure containing an intersecting N-acetylglucosamine and an alpha (1----6)-linked fucose residue in the core unit for the majority of the glycans. In contrast to most glycopeptides of other sources, the intestinal glycopeptides were devoid of sialic acid, but contained 6-7 residues of fucose. The outer branches contained the following structures: Fuc alpha 1-2Gal beta 1-3GleNAc beta 1- (H type 1) Fuc alpha 1-2Gal beta 1-4GleNAc beta 1- (H type 2) Gal beta 1-4 (Fuc alpha 1-3)GlcNAc beta 1- (X) Fuc alpha 1-2Gal beta 1-4(Fuc alpha 1-3)GleNAc beta 1- (Y) GalNAc alpha 1-3(Fuc alpha 1-2)Gal beta 1-3GleNAc beta 1- (A type 1) GalNAc alpha 1-3(Fuc alpha 1-2)Gal beta 1-4GleNAc beta 1- (monofucosyl A type 2) GalNAc alpha 1-3(Fuc alpha 1-2)Gal beta 1-4 (Fuc alpha 1-3)GlcNAc beta 1- (trifucosyl A type 2) The blood group determinant structures were mainly of type 2, whereas glycolipids from the same cells contained mainly type 1 determinants. The polyfucosylated glycans represent a novel type of blood group active glycopeptides. The unique properties of the small intestinal glycopeptides as compared with glycopeptides of other tissue sources may be correlated with the specialized functional properties of the small intestinal epithelial cells.

PIXE in complex analytical systems for atmospheric chemistry
- 1987

- A schematic mechanistic box model presenting processes in atmospheric chemical cycles is used to present the main research objectives. From this the main use of PIXE within atmospheric chemistry is discussed. An analytic system giving molecular composition is necessary to fully understand and quantify the chemical and physical pathways described in the model for different compounds. Combining PIXE with complementary techniques can enhance knowledge of molecular composition. Therefore, techniques which are complementary to PIXE that give such important parameters as mass, soot, and major ions are discussed. Difficulties in efficiently combining and using the discussed analytical techniques in practice are recognized. The sampling substrates and sampling methods used are discussed and evaluated from this point of view. The use of thin Al foil as substrate and an electrostatic precipitator for aerosol sampling is suggested as one solution. The importance of developing methods for use of this analytical system of the different phases present in the atmosphere is stressed.

Isolation, identification and synthesis of sex pheromone components of the carob moth, Ectomyelois ceratoniae
- 1989
-
Ingår i: Tetrahedron Letters. - 0040-4039. ; 30:22, s. 2901-2902

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The sex pheromone of females of the carob moth, Ectomyelois ceratoniae, was identified to be a mixture of (Z,E)-9,11,13-tetradecatrienal, (Z,E)-9,11-tetradecadienal and (Z)-9-tetradecenal in the ratio of 10:1:1. A synthetic blend proved to be attractive. GC/EAD + GC/MS investigations showed (Z,E)-9,11,13-tetradecatrienal, (Z,E)-9,11-tetradecadienal and (Z)-9-tetradecenal to be the sex pheromone of the carob moth. Blends of synthetic compounds are active.

Assignment of gene for coagulation factor V to chromosome 1 in man and to chromosome 13 in rat
- 1988

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Two different factor V cDNA fragments were used as hydridization probes in the chromosomal assignment of the human and rat factor V genes. A 1.6-kb EcoRI fragment was used as a hybridization probe to analyze a panel of human-rodent somatic cell hybrids. Cosegregation of factor V specific DNA restriction fragments with human chromosome 1 was observed. In addition, a panel of rat-mouse somatic cell hybrids was analyzed with another human factor V cDNA probe to localize the gene for rat coagulation factor V. In the rat, the gene for coagulation factor V was found to be located in chromosome 13. This is the first gene in the rat to be localized to chromosome 13.

Hepatic lipase activity increases after liver denervation in the rat
- 1985

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We have investigated the effects of hilar denervation of rat liver upon the activity of hepatic lipase determined in tissue extracts. Denervated animals had an enzyme activity of 7.89 +/- 0.37 mU/mg protein, compared to 6.45 +/- 0.43 in sham-operated controls (mean +/- S.E.; P less than 0.05). We conclude that hepatic innervation may contribute to the regulation of hepatic lipase activity.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A review of recent advances in high-energy ion beam analysis at the Lund Institute of Technology is presented. A nonvacuum specimen chamber allows chemical speciation using a combination of ion beam analysis and controlled heating. The development of a new versatile scanning proton microbeam based on a new dedicated accelerator, an achromatic triplet lens and an advanced specimen chamber is outlined together with the performance of a microVAX-II/VMEbus-based data acquisition system.
