16. Theoretical prediction of ionisation properties of proteins
Sammanfattning : This work emphasises on elaboration of improved theoretical and computational methods for determination of protonation/deprotonation equilibria in proteins. It also aims to contribute for a better understanding on atomic level of ionisation properties of proteins and their role in structure-functional relationship. LÄS MER
17. Studies on phosphate ester cleavage and development of oligonucleotide based artificial nucleases (OBAN’s)
Sammanfattning : Five different Oligonucleotide Based Artificial Nuclease (OBAN) systems have been synthesized. OBAN's may be regarded as a development of traditional antisense methodology where inhibition of gene expression can be achieved by hybridizing a synthetic oligonucleotide to natural mRNA and thus inhibiting further translation into protein products.

18. Mechanistic characterization of post-transcriptional gene silencing
Sammanfattning : With the ongoing task of identifying and characterizing genes in the human genome, there is a great demand for tools to study these genes. Today, reverse genetics is the most effective way to explore gene function. This involves suppression of the gene of interest by a set of manipulation techniques. LÄS MER
19. Retroviral and related nucleic acid processing enzymes expression and detection : Applications on clinical studies of HIV and HERVs
Sammanfattning : Reverse transcriptase (RT), the expression and detection of the enzyme marking the family Retroviridae, has been studied. A new RT activity assay adapted to 96-well microtitre plates is described. It uses a non- radioactive bromodeoxyuridine triphosphate (BrdUTP) substrate in a solid phase format. The assay was highly sensitive. LÄS MER
20. Nucleic acid based therapeutic approaches
Sammanfattning : Nucleic acid therapy comprises several approaches based on nucleic acid as the active therapeutic component to treat human disease. Antisense and short interfering RNA (siRNA) are two gene-silencing techniques in this category. Based on nucleic acid sequence recognition both techniques inhibit gene expression. LÄS MER
