Jayadeva Hostel Building, 5th Main Road, Gandhi Nagar, Bangalore - 560 009, India. “We must look ahead at today's radical changes in technology, not just as forecasters but as actors charged with designing and bringing about a sustainable and acceptable world. New knowledge gives us power for change: for good or ill, for knowledge is neutral. The problems we face go well beyond technology: problems of living in harmony with nature, and most important, living in harmony with each other. Information technology, so closely tied to the properties of the human mind, can give us, if we ask the right questions, the special insights we need to advance these goals.” Herbert Simon , 1916 – 2001 Nobel Laureate in Economics, 1978 7 Preface Technology remains as the fountainhead for human development and economic growth.

  • Imbim Annual Report 2015
    Department of Medical Biochemistry and Microbiology IMBIM ANNUAL REPORT 2015 DEPARTMENT OF MEDICAL BIOCHEMISTRY AND MICROBIOLOGY ANNUAL REPORT 2015 Pictures taken by Helena Öhrvik The role of copper in mast cell granule homeostasis Ctr2 is a protein involved in cellular transport of copper. Upper panels: staining for tryptase, a mast cell granule protease, in tryptase (Mcpt6)-deficient (negative control), Ctr2-/- and wild type (WT) mast cells. Note that the absence of Ctr2 causes upregulated expression of tryptase. Lower panels: staining of Ctr2-/- and WT mast cells with toluidine blue, a proteoglycan- binding dye. Note increased toluidine blue staining of Ctr2-/- mast cells, indicating increased proteoglycan content of granules. Öhrvik, H., Logeman, B., Noguchi, G., Eriksson, I., Kjellén, L., Thiele, D.J., Pejler, G. (2015) Ctr2 regulates mast cell maturation by affecting the storage and expression of tryptase and proteoglycans. J. Immunol. 195, 3654-364. Edited by Veronica Hammar ISBN no 978-91-979531-8-4 PREFACE Another year has passed with both small and large successes for the laboratory. The Department has a stable staff consisting of some 150 people. Including project workers, post doc etc we are around 250 persons that spend our daily work hours at the Department. Fortunately the granting situation for the IMBIM researchers improved considerably during 2015. Many of the small and medium sized research groups received grants that will help them continue to excel during the coming years. In addition Dan Andersson, Leif Andersson, Per Jemth, and a couple of scientists at ICM, received a hefty 47 milj kr grant from “Knut och Alice Wallenbergs Stiftelse” to support their research on the evolution of new genes and proteins.
