  1. 1. Characterization of Membrane Proteins: From a gated plant aquaporin to animal ion channel receptors

    Författare :Sabeen Survery; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MIPs; AQPs; TRP ion channels; water transport; themo sensor; Electrophiles;

    Sammanfattning : Membrane proteins play several important roles in a cell. Among these proteins are aquaporins (AQPs) and transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels that mediate water transport, temperature and noxious chemical sensation, respectively. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Connecting sialic acid expression to cancer cell characteristics : Novel tools for detection, imaging, and analysis

    Författare :Louise Sternbæk; Anette Gjörloff Wingren; Kersti Alm; Birgit Janicke; Håkan Eriksson; Magnus Abrahamson; Malmö universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Molecularly imprinted polymers; digital holographic cytometry; cancer; cytotoxicity; inflammation; sialic acid; Health and society; Hälsa och samhälle;

    Sammanfattning : Sialic acid (SA) plays a crucial role in many biological processes. Cell surface SA expression is usually analyzed with antibodies or lectins; however, they are costly and with poor stability. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Plant Major Intrinsic Proteins - natural variation and evolution

    Författare :Jonas Danielson; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MIP; aquaporin; plant; natural variation; evolution; Arabidopsis; Physcomitrella patens; NIP; XIP;

    Sammanfattning : Major Intrinsic Proteins (MIPs, also called Aquaporins, AQPs) are channel forming membrane proteins. Although initially functionally characterized and named after their water channeling property in human red blood cells, it has become increasingly evident that MIPs are present in all types of organisms and transport a variety of small, uncharged molecules besides water.

  5. 4. Antibodies and Antibody Mimics in Binding Assays

    Författare :Ioana Wärnmark; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polymerteknik; biopolymers; ELISA; antibody; molecularly imprinted polymer; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Metabolism; metabolism; Biokemisk teknik; Polymer technology; Biochemical technology;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents development of new analytical methods using antibodies and molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) in binding assays: 1) The high specificity of antibodies and the wide variety of efficient labels make immunoassay one of the most popular analytical techniques today. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is most widely used, since the enzyme label can be used as a catalyst to provide very high signal amplification. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Glycosylation in cancer and infection : the role of sialic acid

    Författare :Yuecheng Zhang; Anette Wingren; Maria Stollenwerk; Lars Ohlsson; Martin Dufva; Malmö universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cancer; sialic acids; receptor; molecularly imprinted polymers; SARS-CoV-2; fluorescence; Health and society; Hälsa och samhälle;

    Sammanfattning : Sialic acids (SA), a group of nine-carbon backbone monosaccharides are abundantly expressed in vertebrates. They are usually linked to the terminal of glycan chains and play crucial roles in many biological processes, including cell adhesion, cell-cell interactions, immune modulation, cancer cell migration and invasion, as well as viral infections.
