16. Galanin receptor ligands
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
17. Tunnels and Grooves : Structure-Function Studies in Two Disparate Enzymes
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.

18. On the Design of Affibody Molecules for Radiolabeling and In Vivo Molecular Imaging
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
19. Molecular basis and pharmacological implications of Alzheimer amyloid ß-peptide fibril formation
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
20. Effect of the tri-peptide glycyl-prolyl-glycine amide on HIV-1 replication
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
