1. 1. Oxidized nucleotides as a predictor of radiation sensitivity

   Författare :Ali Pour Khavari; Siamak Haghdoost; Marie Öhman; Anders Nilsson; Bo Stenerlöw; Neus Visa; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 8-oxo-dG; Radiation; Sensitivity; Oxidized; Nucleotides; ROS; NOS; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

   Sammanfattning : The direct and indirect effects of IR can lead to DNA damage and activation of DNA repair. The indirect effects of ionizing radiation mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) which produced through radiolysis of water and if not taken care of by the antioxidant system, can also give rise to oxidative stress.

3. 2. Salvage and de novo synthesis of nucleotides in Trypanosoma brucei and mammalian cells

   Författare :Artur Fijolek; Lars Thelander; Arne Holmgren; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nucleotides; ribonucleotide reductase; Ara-A; p53R2; Trypanosoma brucei; African sleeping sickness; trypanosomiasis; CTP synthetase; adenosine kinase; acivicin; adenine arabinoside; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

   Sammanfattning : All living cells are dependent on nucleic acids for their survival. The genetic information stored in DNA is translated into functional proteins via a messenger molecule, the ribonucleic acid (RNA). Since DNA and RNA can be considered as polymers of nucleotides (NTPs), balanced pools of NTPs are crucial to nucleic acid synthesis and repair. LÄS MER

4. 3. Conformationally Constrained Nucleosides, Nucleotides and Oligonucleotides : Design, Synthesis and Properties

   Författare :Dmytro Honcharenko; Jyoti Chattopadhyaya; Piet Herdewijn; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bioorganic chemistry; antisense oligonucleotides; conformationally constrained nucleosides; azetidine; aza-ENA; target affinity; RNase H; exonuclease stability; pyrene-functionalized nucleotides; fluorescence; mismatch discrimination; Bioorganisk kemi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on six original research publications describing synthesis, structure and physicochemical and biochemical analysis of chemically modified oligonucleotides (ONs) in terms of their potential diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Synthesis of two types of bicyclic conformationally constrained nucleosides, North-East locked 1',2'-azetidine and North locked 2',4'-aza-ENA, is described. LÄS MER

5. 4. Selective protein functionalisation via enzymatic phosphocholination

   Författare :Philipp Ochtrop; Christian Hedberg; Tom Grossmann; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; chemical biology; organic synthesis; site-selective protein labeling; PTM; phosphocholination; nucleotides; bioorthogonal chemistry; proteomics; IMPDH2;

   Sammanfattning : Proteins are the most abundant biomolecules within a cell and are involved in all biochemical cellular processes ultimately determining cellular function. Therefore, to develop a complete understanding of cellular processes, obtaining knowledge about protein function and interaction at a molecular level is critical. LÄS MER

7. 5. Deciphering sequence data : A multivariate approach

   Författare :Maria Sandberg Hiltunen; Michael Sjöström; Svante Wold; Lars Ståhle; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Principal properties; amino acids; nucleotides; tRNA; DNA; multivariate data analysis; sequence analysis; QSAR; quantitative sequence activity relationships;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis, attention has been focused on the quantitative description of nucleic acids, proteins and peptides. The strategy was to use multivariate chemometrical methods for improving the understanding of the complex structural codes of these kinds of biological molecules. LÄS MER
