  1. 1. Efficient carbohydrate synthesis by controlled inversion strategies

    Författare :Hai Dong; Olof Ramström; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbohydrate Chemistry; Carbohydrate Protection; Epimerization; Inversion; Dynamic; Regioselective Control; Neighboring Group Participation; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The Lattrell-Dax method of nitrite-mediated substitution of carbohydrate triflates is an efficient method to generate structures of inverse configuration. In this study it has been demonstrated that a neighboring equatorial ester group plays a highly important role in this carbohydrate epimerization reaction, inducing the formation of inversion compounds in good yields.

  2. 2. Glycoconjugates : synthesis and investigation of carbohydrate-protein interactions

    Författare :Sara Spjut; Mikael Elofsson; Ulf Ellervik; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Glycoconjugates; Carbohydrates; Galactose; Glucose; Solid-phase synthesis; SPOS; Glycosylation; Gel-phase 19F NMR spectroscopy; Fluorinated linker; Carbohydrate array; Microtiter plates; Carbohydrate-protein interactions; carbamate linker; Fsec; Protecting group; Fluorinated protecting group; Multivalent glycoconjugates; Adenovirus; Ad37; Epidemic keratoconjunctivitis; EKC; Sialic acid; Adenovirus inhibitor; Trivalent; Tetravalent; X-ray crystal structure; Bioorganic chemistry; Bioorganisk kemi; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : To study the functions of glycoconjugates in biological systems reliable and efficient protocols for glycoconjugate synthesis are needed. To reach this goal we have developed methods for solid-phase synthesis of glycoconjugates that can be monitored with gel-phase 19F spectroscopy using fluorinated linkers, building blocks, and protecting groups.

  3. 3. Intestinal mucins 'soluble and insoluble problems'

    Författare :Annkatrin Herrmann; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; colorectal carcinoma; pulse labelling; organ culture; glycopeptide; small intestine; colon; glycoprotein complex; insoluble; muc2; MUC2; Mucin; mucus; carbohydrate; oligosaccharide.; Gastro-enterology; Gastroenterologi;

    Sammanfattning : Highly glycosylated glycoproteins – mucins – are the major constituents of the mucus layer and glycocalyx that cover mucosal surfaces. Twelve human mucin genes have been identified, and the mucins may be divided into those that are membraneassociated and those that are secreted. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Tales from the Sweet Side of Life : Structure and dynamics of carbohydrate-based systems

    Författare :Alessandro Ruda; Göran Widmalm; Jesús Jiménez Barbero; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; carbohydrates; nuclear magnetic resonance; molecular dynamics; glycans; conformational analysis; structure elucidation; protein-glycan interactions; Organic Chemistry; organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The field of glycomics has experienced significant developments in the last few decades, revealing a profound and elaborate language behind the intrinsic complexity of the glycans structures. This ‘sugar code’ is at the basis of intercellular interaction and recognition. For this language to be understood, its chemical basis must be unveiled. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Streptococcal protein Rib and related proteins: a family of repetitive surface proteins that elicit protective immunity

    Författare :Margaretha Stålhammar-Carlemalm; Institutionen för laboratoriemedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microbiology; cross-protection; epithelial cell adhesion; protective immunity; vaccination; surface proteins; Group B streptococcus; Streptococcus pyogenes; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Streptococci constitute a heterogeneous group of Gram-positive bacteria, divided into different serological groups on the basis of antigenic differences in a cell wall-associated carbohydrate. This thesis describes related surface proteins expressed by bacteria in two of these groups, the group B streptococcus (GBS) and the group A streptococcus (GAS). LÄS MER
