1. Metal Affinity Peptides in Biotechnological Applications As tools in protein purification, protein stabilisation, metal quantification and metal tolerance of bacteria and plants
Sammanfattning : Metal affinity tags have been fused to proteins and demonstrated to function as tools in protein purification, protein stabilisation, quantitative metal analysis and metal tolerance of bacteria and plants. In biotechnological applications proteins frequently have to function in nonnatural environments with harsh conditions which impose requirements for high stability on the proteins. LÄS MER
2. Modelling the Protein-DNA Interface
Sammanfattning : Protein-DNA interactions are crucial to life. Several millions of DNA base pair steps are organ- ised, read and protected by proteins in every cell. Protein-DNA interactions must be specific, controllable and reasonably fast. Understanding how these features coexist is one of the great challenges for biochemists and molecular biologists. LÄS MER
3. Radical generation and stabilisation in ribonucleotide reductase R2
Sammanfattning : Diiron carboxylate proteins contain a cofactor that consists of two iron atoms coordinated by carboxylate and histidine ligands. These proteins perform a multitude of chemical reactions in the cell that generally involve activation of molecular oxygen at the diiron site. LÄS MER
4. POLYPEPTIDES - STRUCTURES AND INTERACTIONS IN MONOLAYERS AND AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis work is to understand and be able to control polypeptide conformation and interactions at interfaces and in solution by changing the solution conditions. For this purpose simple model polypeptides, so-called polyamino acids, have been investigated at the air-liquid interface, as well as in aqueous solutions. LÄS MER
5. A molecular chaperone that governs membrane contact sites and lipid metabolism
Sammanfattning : Transmembrane proteins represent almost one third of the total cellular proteome, and the majority of them requires translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to be folded, sorted and transported to their final subcellular destination. High translational rates during exponential cell growth result in a massive influx of immature proteins into the ER, requiring rapid and accurate folding. LÄS MER
