  1. 1. Antiadhesive agents targeting uropathogenic Escherichia coli : Multivariate studies of protein-protein and protein-carbohydrate interactions

    Författare :Andreas Larsson; Jan Kihlberg; Fredrik Almqvist; Mats Larhed; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organic chemistry; Antibacterial; pili; antiadhesive agents; structure based design; statistical molecular design; 2-pyridone; amino acid derivative; galabiose; enaminone; SPR; ELISA; QSAR; Organisk kemi; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes studies directed towards development of novel antiadhesive agents, with particular emphasis on compounds that prevent attachment of bacteria to a host-cell. Three different proteins involved in the assembly or function of adhesive pili in uropathogenic Escherichia coli have been targeted either by rational structure based design or statistical molecular methods.

  2. 2. Unravelling protein stability and aggregation

    Författare :Tanja Weiffert; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein stability; protein aggregation; amyloid beta peptide; protein stabilization; split GFP; monellin; secretagogin; ; aggregation kinetics; toxicity; aggregation mechanism; coaggregation;

    Sammanfattning : Proteins are complex macromolecules that are fundamental to all living species. The stability of proteins are governed by non-covalent forces within the protein and between the protein and its surrounding environment. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Gene fusion in protein engineering : design of novel peptides and bifunctional enzymes

    Författare :Sarah Fredriksson; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cadmium; Bifunctional enzyme; Catalytic triad; Channeling; Coenzyme recycling; Galactose dehydrogenase; ß-Galactosidase; Gene fusion; Hexapeptide; Lactate dehydrogenase; Linker region; Multifunctional enzymes; Oligomeric protein; NADH; Phage; OmpA; Biochemistry; Biokemi; metabolism; Biotechnology; Bioteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The gene fusion technique is widely used in protein engineering and in this thesis it constitutes the basis of both the construction of artificial bifunctional enzymes and the display of two novel peptides. Artificial bifunctional enzymes have been used as model systems in the studies of native multifunctional enzymes and proximity effects within these complexes. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Prediction, Design and Determination of Protein Structures

    Författare :Sebastian Rämisch; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein design; Rosetta; Fold-and-Dock; leucine rich repeat proteins; coiled-coils; molecular replacement; ab initio phasing; temperature stability; fluorescent proteins;

    Sammanfattning : The three-dimensional structure of protein is encoded in its amino acid sequence. Modern structure prediction algorithms make it possible to predict the structure of small proteins using sequence information alone. LÄS MER

  5. 5. The Design and Structure Prediction of Protein Oligomers

    Författare :Robert Lizatovic; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; virus capsids; coiled coils; molecular replacement; symmetry; Rosetta; protein design; structure prediction;

    Sammanfattning : The minimum free energy state of a protein (the native state) is encoded by its amino-acid sequence. Due to the many torsional degrees of freedom (DOF) available to a polypeptide chain, a vast number of conformations is possible. LÄS MER
