  1. 1. Catalysis and Site-Specific Modification of Glutathione Transferases Enabled by Rational Design

    Författare :Sofia Håkansson Hederos; Lars Baltzer; Kerstin Broo; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Catalysis; Glutathione Transferases; Rational design; Protein design; Site-specific modification; thiolester hydrolysis; Enzyme engineering; Enzymteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the rational design of a novel enzyme, a thiolester hydrolase, derived from human glutathione transferase (GST) A1-1 by the introduction of a single histidine residue. The first section of the thesis describes the design and the determination of the reaction mechanism. LÄS MER

  2. 2. A Novel Route for Construction of Multipurpose Receptors through Chemical Modification of Glutathione Transferases

    Författare :Johan Viljanen; Bengt Harald Jonsson; Kerstin Broo; Sophia Hober; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Human GST A1-1; site-specific covalent modification; tyrosine 9; lysine 216; methionine 208; multipurpose receptor; pattern recognition; protein purification; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes how the human Alpha class glutathione transferase (GST) A1-1 can be reprogrammed either to function as a multipurpose biosensor for detection of small molecule analytes, or as a handle providing for more efficient protein purification.A novel, user-friendly, and efficient method for site-specific introduction of functional groups into the active site of hGST A1-1 is the platform for these achievements.
