6. The social life of a membrane protein; It's complex
Sammanfattning : Membrane proteins are key players in many biological processes. Since most membrane proteins are assembled into oligomeric complexes it is important to understand how they interact with each other. Unfortunately however, the assembly process (i.e. LÄS MER
7. Cell division in Escherichia coli
Sammanfattning : The Gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli is a model system to describe the biochemistry and cell biology of cell division in bacteria. This process can be divided into three major steps. The first step involves the replication of the DNA, followed by an elongation step in which the cells become twice as long. LÄS MER
8. Protein complexes of the Escherichia coli cell envelope
Sammanfattning : The cell envelope of Escherichia coli, as for all living cells, is a magnificent semi-permeable membrane barrier that facilitates protection as well as enables fundamental contact with the exterior world. The envelope comprises a mixture of phospholipids, organized in two bilayers, which are stabilized by a rigid peptidoglycan layer. LÄS MER
9. Biogenesis of the bc1 complex in mitochondria
Sammanfattning : Mitochondria perform a variety of tasks, but the function they are most prominent for is the energy conversion to form ATP, the universal energy equivalent of the cell. The majority of this ATP is created by the oxidative phosphorylation system, consisting of the respiratory chain and the ATP synthase. LÄS MER
10. Engineering membrane proteins for production and topology
Sammanfattning : The genomes of diverse organisms are predicted to contain 20 – 30% membrane protein encoding genes and more than half of all therapeutics target membrane proteins. However, only 2% of crystal structures deposited in the protein data bank represent integral membrane proteins. LÄS MER
