Binding Specificity of ASHH2 CW Domain Toward H3K4me1 Ligand Is Coupled to Its Structural Stability Through Its α1-Helix
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-13)The CW domain binds to histone tail modifications found in different protein families involved in epigenetic regulation and chromatin remodeling. CW domains recognize the methylation state of the fourth lysine on histone 3 and could, therefore, be viewed as a reader of epigenetic information. The specificity toward different methylation states such as me1, me2, or me3 depends on the particular ... -
Cutoff Latitudes of Solar Proton Events Measured by GPS Satellites
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-15)Solar energetic particles (SEPs), one of the main causes of particle radiation in interplanetary space, can disrupt radio communication, induce spacecraft failures and change the heating and cooling rates in the atmosphere among others. To investigate the impact of SEPs and more specifically solar proton events (SPEs), we established a cutoff latitude database based on energetic particle data from ... -
Evaluation of a Simple Clinical Language Paradigm With Respect to Sensory Independency, Functional Asymmetry, and Effective Connectivity
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-03)The present study replicates a known visual language paradigm, and extends it to a paradigm that is independent from the sensory modality of the stimuli and, hence, could be administered either visually or aurally, such that both patients with limited sight or hearing could be examined. The stimuli were simple sentences, but required the subject not only to understand the content of the sentence but ... -

The Effect of Own Body Concerns on Judgments of Other Women’s Body Size
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-06)We investigated the relationships between healthy women’s estimates of their own body size, their body dissatisfaction, and how they subjectively judge the transition from normal to overweight in other women’s bodies (the “normal/overweight” boundary). We propose two complementary hypotheses. In the first, participants compare other women to an internalized Western “thin ideal,” whose size reflects ... -

Square mesh codend improves size selectivity and catch pattern for Trichiurus lepturus in bottom trawl used along Northwest coast of India
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-15)The size selectivity and catch pattern of Trichiurus lepturus in 40 mm diamond and square mesh codends were investigated in this study. A 34 m high opening trawl was used, which is a common design used by fishermen operating along the northwest coast of India, and the cover codend method was employed to determine codend selectivity. Along with the changes in the length at 50% retention rate for ... -

"Nobody is dead until warm and dead": Prolonged resuscitation is warranted in arrested hypothermic victims also in remote areas - A retrospective study from northern Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014-06-01)Hypothermic cardiac arrest has high mortality and few known prognostic factors. We studied retrospectively 34 victims of accidental hypothermia with cardiac arrest admitted to The University Hospital of North Norway during 1985–2013 who were resuscitated and rewarmed by extracorporeal circulation. No patient survived prior to 1999, while nine out of 24 (37.5%) survived hypothermic cardiac arrest ... -
Effect of Computational Method on Accumulated O2 Deficit
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-07)The aim of this study was to examine how relationships between exercise intensity and the rate of energy release established in different ways, affect the calculated O<sub>2</sub> deficit accumulated during strenuous exercise. Aerobic energy release is readily measured by the O<sub>2</sub> uptake, while anaerobic energy release is by definition independent of O<sub>2</sub>. The latter is not ... -
Quorum Sensing Controls the CRISPR and Type VI Secretion Systems in Aliivibrio wodanis 06/09/139
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-22)For bacteria to thrive in an environment with competitors, phages and environmental cues, they use different strategies, including Type VI Secretion Systems (T6SSs) and Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) to compete for space. Bacteria often use quorum sensing (QS), to coordinate their behavior as the cell density increases. Like other aliivibrios, Aliivibrio wodanis ... -

The importance of turbulent ocean–sea ice nutrient exchanges for simulation of ice algal biomass and production with CICE6.1 and Icepack 1.2
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-31)Different sea ice models apply unique approaches in the computation of nutrient diffusion between the ocean and the ice bottom, which are generally decoupled from the calculation of turbulent heat flux. A simple molecular diffusion formulation is often used. We argue that nutrient transfer from the ocean to sea ice should be as consistent as possible with heat transfer, since all of these fluxes ... -
