The quality of chemistry research in the Netherlands is very high and it makes a major contribution at an international level to chemistry-related knowledge. Internationally speaking, a number of research programmes are even frontrunners in their field. These are the conclusions of a visitation committee from quality assessor QANU, which reviewed 58 research programmes at seven Dutch universities.
Researchers at the University of Groningen have succeeded in experimentally determining the maximum diameter of a pore in a cell membrane. They achieved this by directing a series of organic molecules that gradually increased in size through the pore. The diameter turned out to be significantly larger than had previously been calculated with the help of models from molecular dynamics. The research, on which biologists and chemists worked closely together, was published this week in the Early Edition of the scientific journal PNAS.

The Groningen professors Bauke Dijkstra and Lubbert Dijkhuizen have deciphered the structure and functional mechanism of the glucansucrase enzyme that is responsible for dental plaque sticking to teeth. This knowledge will stimulate the identification of substances that inhibit the enzyme. Just add that substance to toothpaste, or even sweets, and caries will be a thing of the past. The results of the research will be published this week in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
Students of the University of Groningen achieved the highest category in the International Genetically Engineered Machine competition (iGEM 2010) in Boston. The team was presented with a gold medal.

By switching off a single gene, the bacteria Streptomyces coelicolor can produce up to six times as much antibiotic. This is revealed in research carried out by biologist Jeroen Siebring, who is graduating from the University of Groningen on 5 February 2010. Thanks to this fundamental new insight, it may well be possible to produce important strains of antibiotics more cheaply in the future.
