(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2021)Environmental DNA (eDNA) monitoring methods are increasingly used as a supplement or substitute to conventional monitoring. This rapidly advancing research field promises improvements for aquatic species conservation and ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)The deep seafloor serves as a reservoir of biodiversity in the global ocean, with >80% of invertebrates at abyssal depths still undescribed. These diverse and remote deep‐sea communities are critically under‐sampled and ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)In changing environments, phenotypic traits are shaped by numerous agents of selection. The optimal phenotypic value maximizing the fitness of an individual thus varies through time and space with various environmental ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)The vertical migrations performed by zooplankton at daily and seasonal scales are important for marine ecosystem dynamics and biogeochemical cycles. We analysed associations between seasonal variation in abundance and depth ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)On 3 August 1900, bubonic plague (Yersinia pestis) broke out in Glasgow for the first time during the Third Pandemic. The local sanitary authorities rigorously tracked the spread of the disease and they found that nearly ...
-
(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2019)Plague is a vector-borne zoonotic disease caused by Yersinia pestis that produces serious and potentially fatal infections in humans. The transmission of plague to humans can occur through contact with animals, fleas, or ...

Epiregulin (EREG) associated with disc herniation induces spontaneous activity in the pain pathways. (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2016)Low back pain and sciatica after disc herniation may be caused by mechanical compression of the nerve roots, but also by the release of pro-inflammatory agents and growth factors from the nucleus pulposus (NP) of the ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2016)Phenotypic diversity is an important trait of bacterial populations and can enhance fitness of the existing genotype in a given environment. To characterize different subpopulations, several studies have analyzed differential ...

Er avvikende celler av Prymnesium polylepis mer motstandsdyktige mot virusangrep enn typiske celler? (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2014)Prymnesium polylepis er en svepeflagellat med to ulike morfologiske flagellatstadier som består av avvikende eller typiske celler. Kulturer med typiske celler er haploide, og kulturer med avvikende celler kan enten være ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)The actin cytoskeleton is tightly controlled by RhoGTPases, actin binding-proteins and nucleation-promoting factors to perform fundamental cellular functions. We have previously shown that ERK3, an atypical MAPK, controls ...
-
(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2022)Palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) offer a wide range of novel and exciting applications in catalysis, medicine, engineering, and electronics. Currently, these NPs are synthesized using conventional physical and chemical ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)Although lysosomes perform a number of essential cellular functions, damaged lysosomes represent a potential hazard to the cell. Such lysosomes are therefore engulfed by autophagic membranes in the process known as lysophagy, ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)The multisubunit endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery is a key regulator of cellular membrane dynamics. Initially characterized in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae for its involvement ...
