1. Synthesis of xyloglucan oligo- and polysaccharides with glycosynthase technology
Sammanfattning : Xyloglucans are polysaccharides found as storage polymers in seeds and tubers, and as cross-linking glycans in the cell wall of plants. Their structure is complex with intricate branching patterns, which contribute to the physical properties of the polysaccharide including its binding to and interaction with other glycans such as cellulose.

2. On bacterial formats in protein library technology
Sammanfattning : Millions of years of evolution have resulted in an immense number of different proteins, which participate in virtually every process within cells and thus are of utmost importance for allknown forms of life. In addition, there are several examples of natural proteins which have found use in applications outside their natural environment, such as the use of enzymes infood industry and washing powders or the use of antibodies in diagnostic, bioseparation or therapeutic applications.

3. Microbial Synthetic Biology, Systems Metabolic Engineering and Enzyme Engineering for Advanced Microbial Biodiesel Production with Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Sammanfattning : The continuous requirement of transportation biofuels has brought the necessity to establish alternatives permitting low-cost production of biodiesel while being environmentally friendly. Biodiesel production was achieved utilizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae by employing respective enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) based on fatty acyl-CoA molecules and ethanol.

4. Feruloyl esterases - Evaluation of their potential for biotechnological applications
Sammanfattning : Owing to the current efforts to find sustainable alternatives to petrochemical based industries and technologies, enzymatic degradation and valorization of plant biomass has been attracting interest. Due to the complexity of plant biomass, an array of enzymes is required to hydrolyze it, including esterases. LÄS MER
5. Catalysis and Site-Specific Modification of Glutathione Transferases Enabled by Rational Design
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the rational design of a novel enzyme, a thiolester hydrolase, derived from human glutathione transferase (GST) A1-1 by the introduction of a single histidine residue. The first section of the thesis describes the design and the determination of the reaction mechanism. LÄS MER
