  1. 16. Galanin receptor ligands

    Författare :Johan Runesson; Ülo Langel; Lena Mäler; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Galanin; GALP; GPCR; Agonist; GalR; Chimeric peptide; Inositol phosphate production; Receptor specificity; Neurochemistry and Molecular Neurobiology; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi;

    Sammanfattning : In the nervous system galanin primarily displays a modulatory role. The galaninergic system consists of a number of bioactive peptides with a highly plastic expression pattern and three different receptors. The lack of receptor subtype selective ligands and antibodies have severely hampered the charac-terization of this system. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Tunnels and Grooves : Structure-Function Studies in Two Disparate Enzymes

    Författare :Daniel Ericsson; Sherry Mowbray; Guy Dodson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mycobacterium tuberculosis; ribonucleotide reductase; peptide inhibitors; fluorescence polarization; lipase; interfacial activation; hydrolase; X-ray structure; substrate specificity; Structural biology; Strukturbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes structural and binding studies in enzymes from two different  organisms: ribonucleotide reductase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (RNR) and lipase A from Candida antarctica (CalA).RNR is viable as a target for new drugs against the causative agent of tuberculosis.

  3. 18. On the Design of Affibody Molecules for Radiolabeling and In Vivo Molecular Imaging

    Författare :Daniel Rosik; Amelie Eriksson Karlström; Christian Heinis; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Affibody molecule; AC DC; radionuclide molecular imaging; HER2; SPECT; PET; biodistribution; peptide synthesis; radiolabeling; SRA - Molecular Bioscience; SRA - Molekylär biovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Affibody molecules have lately shown great potential as tools for in vivo molecular imaging. These small, 3-helical bundles, with their highly stable protein scaffold, are well suited for the often harsh conditions of radiolabeling. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Molecular basis and pharmacological implications of Alzheimer amyloid ß-peptide fibril formation

    Författare :Lars Tjernberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Alzheimer s disease; amyloid; fibrils; inhibitor; protease resistance; electron microscopy; fluorescence correlation spectroscopy.;

    Sammanfattning : Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease, mostly affecting elderly. The invariable deposition of protease-resistant fibrils of Alzheimer amyloid ß-peptide (Aß) in the parenchyma and blood vessels of the brain is a central event. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Effect of the tri-peptide glycyl-prolyl-glycine amide on HIV-1 replication

    Författare :Jin Su; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :HIV-1; antiretrovirals; peptides; tri-peptides; GPG-NH2; capsid formation; p24 dimerization; coneshaped core; GPG motif; V3 loop; infectivity;

    Sammanfattning : The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is the etiological agent responsible for AIDS worldwide. The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the anti-HIV-1 activity of short peptides and to investigate their mode of inhibition. LÄS MER
