11. HIV-1 envelope protein gp120. Glycovirology of the V3 loop
Sammanfattning : The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection usually is lethal as a consequence of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). HIV-1 is an enveloped virus and the trimeric envelope glycoprotein complex, gp120/gp41, is responsible for binding of the virus both to the primary cellular receptor CD4 and the coreceptors, CXCR4 and CCR5.

12. Degradation of wood polysaccharides by fungal glycoside hydrolases
Sammanfattning : The enzymatic degradation of wood polysaccharides such as cellulose and hemicellulose is an important process in nature. In addition, cellulases and hemicellulases can be used in industrial applications. Fuel ethanol can potentially be produced from wood by enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose followed by yeast fermentation of the formed sugars. LÄS MER
13. New roles for apical secretion and extracellular matrix assembly in Drosophila epithelial morphogenesis
Sammanfattning : Branched tubular organs, such as the lung and vascular system fulfill the respiratory needs of most animals. Optimal tissue function relies on the uniform sizes and shapes of the constituting branches in each organ. LÄS MER
14. Structural Studies of Echinococcus granulosus Fatty-acid-binding Protein 1 and Human Semicarbazide-sensitive Amine Oxidase
Sammanfattning : The parasite Echinococcus granulosus causes hydatid disease, a major zoonosis. A fatty-acid-binding protein, EgFABP1, is important for the parasite, as it must acquire almost all its lipids from its environment or the host. The structure of EgFABP1 has been solved and refined to 1.6 Å resolution. LÄS MER
15. Role of glycosylation in regulation of E-selectin expression on endothelial cells
Sammanfattning : Endothelial cells located on the vessel walls play an important role in inflammation. In response to cytokines or other inflammatory mediators endothelial cells will express different cell adhesion molecules that are involved in binding of circulating leukocytes to the endothelium.
