  3. 7. Allosteric control of ALC1-catalyzed nucleosome remodeling

    Författare :Laura C. Lehmann; Sebastian Deindl; Stefan D. Knight; Felix Müller-Planitz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ALC1; CHD1L; ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling; nucleosome; allosteric regulation; autoinhibition; macro domain; PARP; ADP-ribosylation; DNA damage; acidic patch; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylärbiologi; Biology with specialization in Structural Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot strukturbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The genetic information of eukaryotic cells is packaged inside the nucleus as chromatin. This packaging restricts access to the DNA and therefore represents a barrier for processes such as DNA replication, repair, and gene expression. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Sequence- and structure guided engineering of proteins and enzymes for biotechnology and health applications

    Författare :Karen Schriever; Per-Olof Syrén; Elton P. Hudson; Eric A. Gaucher; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; protein engineering; enzymology; ancestral sequence reconstruction; antigen engineering; structural biology; terpene cyclases; enzyme thermodynamics; biocatalysis; phosphatases; allosteric regulation; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Proteins are highly diverse and sophisticated biomolecules that represent a cornerstone of biological structure and function and have been exploited in man-made applications for thousands of years. Those proteins that facilitate chemical reactions at physiologically relevant time-scales are referred to as enzymes. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Computational Ecotoxicology

    Författare :Sergio Manzetti; David Van der Spoel; Janez Mavri; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pollutants; simulation; molecular; dynamic; quantum; chemistry; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biotechnology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär bioteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Human society has progressed by polluting ecosystems since at least the early industrial revolution. Large amounts of harmful chemical compounds have been dispersed in soils, seas, ground waters and wildlife habitats by industrial and anthropomorphic activities over the last two centuries, leading to a persistent toxicological load on the environment.
