  1. 21. Biochemical and structural studies of proteins supporting the genome replication of enteroviruses and Giardia intestinalis

    Författare :Kasturika Shankar; Lars-Anders Carlson; Daniel Hurdiss; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Structural Biology; Membrane reconstitution; Infectious diseases; Virus; Protozoa; Infectious Diseases; infektionssjukdomar; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The Enterovirus genus of the Picornaviridae family includes non-enveloped, positive-sense single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) viruses. This genus of viruses causes many diseases such as poliomyelitis by poliovirus (PV), cardiomyopathy by coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3), common cold by rhinoviruses (RVs) and meningitis by Enterovirus 71 (EV 71).

  2. 22. Understanding structure and function of membrane protein transporters

    Författare :Anna-Karin Lundbäck; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Membrane protein transporters are important proteins in the cell, as they maintain different solutes and metabolites at a stable concentration. Numerous diseases can be linked to malfunctioning transporters, which makes them interesting pharmaceutical targets. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Nanoparticles (NPs) can be found everywhere and their existence has both beneficial and harmful consequences for the environment and living beings. The investigations on which this thesis is based upon have contributed to an increased understanding of some of these particles and to the development of a method that could be used to study their structure.

  5. 25. Design and analysis of wireframe DNA nanostructures

    Författare :Erik Benson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : In the last decades, the powerful self-assembly properties of DNA have been harnessed to produce complex structures at the nanoscale with high precision and yield. DNA origami is one of the most robust examples of this, where a 7000-nucleotide strand of biological origin is folded by hybridizing with hundreds of synthetic oligonucleotides, the programmed sequence of these “staple strands” determines the shape of the assembled object.
