1. From Structure to Function with Binding Free Energy Calculations for Codon Reading, Riboswitches and Lectins
Sammanfattning : Molecular association is part of many important processes in living cells. Computational methods for calculating binding free energies allows for a quantitative examination of biomolecular structures and hypotheses drawn from biochemical experiments. LÄS MER
2. Computational Studies of Protein Synthesis on the Ribosome and Ligand Binding to Riboswitches
Sammanfattning : The ribosome is a macromolecular machine that produces proteins in all kingdoms of life. The proteins, in turn, control the biochemical processes within the cell. It is thus of extreme importance that the machine that makes the proteins works with high precision. LÄS MER
3. Wobble modifications and other features in transfer RNA important for decoding and reading frame maintenance
Sammanfattning : Transfer RNA (tRNA) is the adaptor molecule responsible for bringing the correct amino acid to the ribosome during protein synthesis. tRNA contains a number of modified nucleosides, which are derivatives of the four normal nucleosides. LÄS MER
4. Evolutionary Mechanisms Shaping Bacterial Translation Termination
Sammanfattning : Translation termination in bacteria involves precise reading of stop codons (UAA, UAG, UGA) and coordinated peptidyl-tRNA hydrolysis by the class-I release factors (RFs) on the ribosome (70S). This thesis investigates the evolutionary and post-translational modification mechanisms of these RFs and the concurrent effect on bacterial translation termination. LÄS MER
5. Posttranscriptional Regulation of Human Papillomavirus Type 16 Late mRNAs
Sammanfattning : The lifecycle of the human papillomavirus (HPV) is strictly linked to the programmed differentiation of the host cell it infects. Production of late proteins, which are used for the production of the major and minor capsid proteins, is only seen upon terminal differentiation of the epithelium. LÄS MER
