1. DNA-Complexes with Drugs and Proteins
Sammanfattning : DNA is fundamental for all living cells; the DNA holds the genetic code, which is more or less the instruction book for how all cells are built and function. Several diseases are also linked to DNA, emerging either from a mutation in our genome, which could result in a malfunctioning protein, or that the transcription of genes is somehow affected by structural changes in the DNA, induced by mutations or DNA binding molecules.

2. Unveiling biomacromolecule interactions-NMR and optical spectroscopy studies on ligand binding to DNA and lysozyme
Sammanfattning : Studies on intercalation of bulky binuclear ruthenium compounds into DNA have attracted attention due to their slow dissociation rate and sequence selectivity. Previous results showed that dumb-bell shaped molecules of the type [μ-(bidppz)(L)4Ru2]4+, L=phenanthroline or bipyridine, bind rapidly on the surface of DNA prior to intercalation. LÄS MER
3. Cytofluorometry : technique and applications
Sammanfattning : The aims of this investigation were to examine the conditions for rapid fluorescence measurements on cellular material, to improve the performance of measurement systems for microscope fluorometry, and to apply this technique in studies on mast cell biology. Fluorescence fading, a general complication of cytofluorometry, was studied during illumination times in the millisecond range, and a new fading phenomenon characterized by short duration and rapid recovery was described.

4. Structural Adaptation of DNA to Small Ligands and Recombination Proteins
Sammanfattning : In order to contribute to the understanding of mechanisms of recognition in nucleic acid systems, the interaction of DNA with a variety of ligands, representing different cases of adaptation of the double-helix structure, was studied using flow linear dichroism (LD), circular dichroism (CD), fluorescence and absorption spectroscopic techniques. A chiral hydrophobic metal complex, [Ru(dpphen)3]2+ was examined, since this had been reported to be the most efficient molecule to discriminate DNA handedness. LÄS MER
