1. 1. Peptide-Based Inhibitors of Hepatitis C Virus NS3 Serine Protease: Kinetic Aspects and Inhibitor Design

   Författare :Anton Poliakov; Helena Danielson; Boris Turk; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; serine protease; inhibitor; slow-binding; protein purification; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

   Sammanfattning : Hepatitis C is a serious disease that affects about 200 million people worldwide. No anti-HCV vaccine or specific anti-viral drugs are available today. Non-structural protein 3 (NS3) of HCV is a bifunctional serine protease/helicase, and the protease has become a prime target in the search for anti-HCV drugs. LÄS MER

3. 2. Enhancing membrane and secretory protein production yields in Escherichia coli

   Författare :Zhe Zhang; Jan-Willem de Gier; Claes von Wachenfeldt; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; recombinant protein production; Escherichia coli; membrane protein; secretory protein; strain engineering; Biochemistry; biokemi;

   Sammanfattning : Proteins fulfill essential functions in living cells. To produce sufficient amounts of a protein is essential to study the structure and function of a protein, or to use it for medical purposes. Escherichia coli is a Gram-negative bacterium that is widely used for recombinant protein production. LÄS MER

4. 3. Viperin vs. tick-borne encephalitis virus : mechanism of a potent antiviral protein

   Författare :Kirstin Vonderstein; Anna Överby Wernstedt; Magnus Evander; Sonja Best; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tick-borne encephalitis virus; TBEV; type-I interferon; IFN; Interferon-stimulated gene; ISG; viperin; GBF1; CIAO1; antiviral protein; genome replication; particle release; capsid;

   Sammanfattning : Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a very important virus medically, causing mild or severe encephalitis often with long-lasting sequelae. Treatment of tick-borne encephalitis is limited to supportive care, and antiviral drugs are much needed.The type-I interferon (IFN) system is the first line of host defense against many viruses.

5. 4. L68Q cystatin C: Expression, cellular transport and turnover of the cystatin C variant forming amyloid in patients with Hereditary Cystatin C Amyloid Angiopaty (HCCAA)

   Författare :María Bjarnadóttir; Avdelningen för klinisk kemi och farmakologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cysteine proteinase inhibitor; brain haemorrhage; amyloid; cystatin C; HCCAA; Clinical chemistry; Klinisk kemi;

   Sammanfattning : Hereditary cystatin C amyloid angiopathy (HCCAA) is a disorder characterised by multiple strokes in young adults, resulting in paralysis and dementia. The disease is caused by a mutation in the gene coding for the peptidase inhibitor cystatin C. LÄS MER

7. 5. Structural and evolutionary studies of a lipocalin: the alpha1-microglobulin protein and its gene

   Författare :Annika Lindqvist; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; embryology human ; ontogeny; teratology; AMBP; Development biology; protein HC; bikunin; Utvecklingsbiologi; teratologi; embryologi människa ; Genetics; cytogenetics; Genetik; cytogenetik;

   Sammanfattning : a1-microglobulin is a small glycoprotein present in plasma and in tissues surrounding the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts. a1-microglobulin is a member of the lipocalin protein family and exhibits several of the typical traits of a lipocalin; it binds an unknown ligand which causes the brown color of the protein, it forms complexes with various different proteins and there have been indications of the presence of a receptor for a1-microglobulin on T-lymphocytes.
