    Sammanfattning : Membrane protein dynamics is of great importance for living organisms. The precise localization of proteins composing a synapse on the membrane facing a nerve terminus is essential for proper functioning of the nervous system. In muscle fibers, the nicotinic acetylcholine is densely packed under the motor nerve termini. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Exploring the Role of the PDZ Domain in a Supramodule

    Författare :Louise Laursen; Per Jemth; Per Hammarström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PSD-95; PSG; PDZ3; supramodule; liquid liquid phase separation; allostery; folding; binding; evolution; post synaptic density; SynGap; CRIPT; AGRB1; Medical Biochemistry; Medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry; Medicinsk biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : The postsynaptic density (PSD) is a large, dense and membraneless compartment of proteins associated below the postsynaptic membrane bilayer, and which constantly undergoes morphological alteration in response to synaptic activity. Formation of PSD is associated with liquid-liquid phase separation of scaffold proteins in complex with other PSD proteins. LÄS MER

  4. 3. A Systems Biological Approach to Parkinson's Disease

    Författare :Katharina F. Heil; Jeanette Hellgren Kotaleski; Olivia Eriksson; J. Douglas Armstrong; Oksana Sorokina; Nigel Williams; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Parkinson s Disease; Neuroscience; Bioinformatics; Network Analysis; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Sammanfattning : Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the Western world. Itshows a high degree of genetic and phenotypic complexity with many implicated factors, various diseasemanifestations but few clear causal links. Ongoing research has identified a growing number of molecularalterations linked to the disease. LÄS MER
