21. Fixation of Functionalized DNA Nanostructures
Sammanfattning : This thesis features results from two different studies on a fully addressable non-repetitive network on the nanometre scale, assembled by synthetic DNA molecules. A bio-inspired molecular approach, based on principles of self-assembly, has brought about a paradigm shift in nanoscience, from a top-down to a bottom-up perspective. LÄS MER
22. Quantum Chemical Studies of Chemotherapeutic Drug Cisplatin : Activation and Binding to DNA
Sammanfattning : The serendipitous discovery of the potent cytotoxic properties of cisplatin brought about a revolution in the treatment of certain types of cancer, but almost fifty years later, there still remain unknown areas in the chemistry of cisplatin. There are questions regarding which form of the drug reaches its DNA target, or why certain DNA sequences are more preferred than others for reaction with cisplatin. LÄS MER
23. Replication Dynamics in the DNA Damage Response
Sammanfattning : Faithful DNA replication is essential and the induction of replication stress may have profound effects on genomic integrity. This is demonstrated by the formation of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), considered to be the most toxic DNA lesions, at stalled replication forks. LÄS MER
24. DNA Analysis of PCR-Inhibitory Forensic Samples
Sammanfattning : DNA evidence, linking perpetrators to crime scenes, is central to many legal proceedings. However, crime scene samples often contain extraneous substances that may interfere with the PCR-based forensic analysis, resulting in partial or negative DNA profiles. Extensive DNA purification may remove inhibitors, but involves the risk of DNA loss. LÄS MER
25. The role of chromatin in the induction and repair of DNA damage
Sammanfattning : The role of chromatin in the induction and repair of DNA damage has a dual nature.The constituent proteins of chromatin protect the DNA against the induction of DNAdamage, while at the same time they reduce the accessibility of DNA to repair enzymes. LÄS MER
