1. 21. Tunable and modular assembly of polypeptides and polypeptide-hybrid biomaterials

   Författare :Christopher Aronsson; Daniel Aili; Karin Enander; Staffan Dånmark; Dennis Löwik; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Biomaterials are materials that are specifically designed to be in contact with biological systems and have for a long time been used in medicine. Examples of biomaterials range from sophisticated prostheses used for replacing outworn body parts to ordinary contact lenses. Currently it is possible to create biomaterials that can e.g. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : The development of new visualization techniques is essential in the field of bioimaging to gain deeper knowledge about various medical and biological events at the cellular and molecular levels. Quantum dots (QDs) are semiconductor nanocrystals which are opening new perspectives in biotechnology due to their powerful optical properties and high stability. LÄS MER

4. 23. Manganese and Iron Heterodimers and Homodimers in Enzymes : Insights from Density Functional Theory

   Författare :Katarina Roos; Per Siegbahn; Margareta R. A. Blomberg; Frank Neese; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ribonucleotide reductase; manganese; iron; density functional theory; kemisk fysik; Chemical Physics;

   Sammanfattning : The enzyme ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) catalyzes the reduction of ribonucleotides to deoxyribonucleotides, the building blocks of DNA, and is essential for all organisms. Canonical class I RNR R2 proteins use a diiron cofactor to generate a tyrosyl radical, which is required for catalysis. LÄS MER

5. 24. Thiopurine S-methyltransferase - characterization of variants and ligand binding

   Författare :Annica Blissing; Lars-Göran Mårtensson; Tomas Nyman; Linköpings universitet; []

   Sammanfattning : Thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) belongs to the Class I S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methyltransferase (SAM-MT) super family of structurally related proteins. Common to the members of this large protein family is the catalysis of methylation reactions using S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) as a methyl group donor, although SAM-MTs act on a wide range of different substrates and carry out numerous biologically important functions.

7. 25. Progress of Weak Affinity Chromatography as a Tool in Drug Development

   Författare :Elinor Meiby; Sten Ohlson; Manfred Raida; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; weak affinity chromatography; fragment based drug discovery; fragment screening; thrombin; trypsin; cyclin G-associated kinase; Hsp90; Pin1; cyclooxygenase; lipodisks; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

   Sammanfattning : Weak Affinity Chromatography (WAC) is a technology that was developed to analyse weak (KD > 10-5 M) although selective interactions between biomolecules. The focus of this thesis was to develop this method for various applications in the drug development process.Fragment Based Drug Discovery is a new approach in finding new small molecular drugs.
