  1. 1. Endonuclease II - a GIY-YIG enzyme of bacteriophage T4

    Författare :Pernilla Lagerbäck; Karin Carlson; Elisabeth Raleigh; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GIY-YIG; EndoII; endonuclease; structure; tetramer; binding; nicking; recombination; Microbiology; Mikrobiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Endonuclease II (EndoII) of bacteriophage T4 is a GIY-YIG enzyme involved in host DNA breakdown during phage infection of E. coli. EndoII combines features of restriction endonucleases with those of homing endonucleases in that it breaks down DNA foreign to itself but recognizes a 16 bp long asymmetric and ambiguous sequence.

  2. 2. β-lactam combinations against multidrug-resistant Enterobacterales : Exploring combination effects and resistance development

    Författare :Lisa Allander; Thomas Tängdén; Linus Sandegren; Pernilla Lagerbäck; Arnfinn Sundsfjord; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gram-negative bacteria; antibiotic combination therapy; antibiotic resistance; beta-lactams; beta-lactamase inhibitors; Infektionssjukdomar; Infectious Diseases;

    Sammanfattning : The β-lactam antibiotics are a cornerstone in treating bacterial infections, but the increasing prevalence of antibiotic resistance worldwide threatens their effectiveness. The main driver of β-lactam resistance is the production of β-lactamases, which are bacterial enzymes that inactivate the antibiotic. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Study Design and Dose Regimen Evaluation of Antibiotics based on Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Modelling

    Författare :Anders Kristoffersson; Lena Friberg; Mats Karlsson; Pernilla Lagerbäck; Otto Cars; Stephan Schmidt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :pharmacometric; optimal design; pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; PKPD; resistance; antibiotics; modeling; time-kill curve; colistin; meropenem; ciprofloxacin; non-linear mixed effects models; bayesian; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Current excessive use and abuse of antibiotics has resulted in increasing bacterial resistance to common treatment options which is threatening to deprive us of a pillar of modern medicine. In this work methods to optimize the use of existing antibiotics and to help development of new antibiotics were developed and applied. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Exploring the interactions of antibiotic combinations against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria

    Författare :Anna Olsson; Thomas Tängdén; Linus Sandegren; Pernilla Lagerbäck; Joseph Meletiadis; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gram-negative bacteria combination therapy antimicrobial resistence; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Antimicrobial resistance is emerging and available treatment options are lacking. Antibiotics is a cornerstone in modern medicine where medical procedures such as surgery, care of premature babies or treatment of cancer is dependent on efficient drugs. LÄS MER
