  1. 6. Synthesis of inositol phosphoglycans and analogues thereof

    Författare :Katinka Ruda; JS Brimacombe; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry; organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the synthesis of inositol phosphoglycans (IPG) corresponding to glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors found on the cell surface of the parasite Leishmania. Synthesis of an IPG which is a putative second messenger for insulin, and of analogues thereof is also discussed. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Studies on interactions of norovirus capsid protein with fucosylated glycans and galactosylceramide as soluble and membrane bound ligands

    Författare :Waqas Nasir; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Norovirus-glycan interactions;

    Sammanfattning : Noroviruses (NVs) are among the most common viral pathogens which target the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and cause severe diarrhea, vomiting and episodes of abdominal cramps with fever. Millions of people around the world get infected with NVs annually, of which 200,000 cases are estimated to be fatal. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Development and Evaluation of Tools to Explore Posttranslational HexNAc-Tyrosine and Mucin-Type O-Glycosylation

    Författare :Sandra Behren; Ulrika Westerlind; Mikael Elofsson; Carmen Galan; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Glycopeptides; mucins; mucin type-O-glycosylation; microarrays; tyrosine-O-HexNAcylation; lectins; MUC1 cancer vaccines; TcdA; LecB; galectins; LacdiNAc; antibodies; biologisk kemi; biological chemistry; Biorganic Chemistry; bioorganisk kemi; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Glycosylation is the most abundant form of post-translational modification (PTM). Recently, O-glycosylation attracted much attention in the glycoproteomic field due to its association with various diseases, such as pathogenic infections and cancer. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Epidemiological and Pan-airway Aspects

    Författare :Ulf Nihlén; allergologi och palliativ medicin Lungmedicin; []

    Sammanfattning : Background – Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, there is little information on the prevalence and particularly on the incidence of COPD. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Free oligosaccharides and glycosylation of bile salt-stimulated lipase in human milk

    Författare :Eva Landberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Bile salt-stimulated lipase (BSSL) is a glycosylated protein present in milk at a concentration of 100-200 mg/L. It is an enzyme important for fat digestion in the newborn infant. The protein backbone contains one possible site for N-glyeosylation and several sites for 0-glyeosylation. LÄS MER
