1. Structure and lipid interactions of membrane-associated glycosyltransferases : Cationic patches and anionic lipids regulate biomembrane binding of both GT-A and GT-B enzymes
Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns work on structure and membrane interactions of enzymes involved in lipid synthesis, biomembrane and cell wall regulation and cell defense processes. These proteins, known as glycosyltransferases (GTs), are involved in the transfer of sugar moieties from nucleotide sugars to lipids or chitin polymers. LÄS MER
2. Characterization of specific domains of the cellulose and chitin synthases from pathogenic oomycetes
Sammanfattning : Some oomycetes species are severe pathogens of fish or crops. As such, they are responsible for important losses in the aquaculture industry as well as in agriculture. Saprolegnia parasitica is a major concern in aquaculture as there is currently no method available for controlling the diseases caused by this microorganism. LÄS MER
3. Aircraft Systems Conceptual Design : An object-oriented approach from to
Sammanfattning : Aircraft Conceptual Design (ACD) is facing new challenges on the way to enhanced fidelity level required of the nowadays complex system design. Namely the integration of models and simulations of different fidelity levels to enhance the analysis capability while maintaining a streamlined, transparent, and low cost working process is required.

4. Visualization and mesoscopic simulation in systems biology
Sammanfattning : Biological cells appear everywhere on earth. They might live on their own as unicellular organism, like bacteria, or might form complex organisms consisting of several thousands or millions of cells. Despite their small size of only a few micrometers, they are complex little miracles. LÄS MER
5. Viperin vs. tick-borne encephalitis virus : mechanism of a potent antiviral protein
Sammanfattning : Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a very important virus medically, causing mild or severe encephalitis often with long-lasting sequelae. Treatment of tick-borne encephalitis is limited to supportive care, and antiviral drugs are much needed.The type-I interferon (IFN) system is the first line of host defense against many viruses.
