16. Structure-Function Studies of Enzymes from Ribose Metabolism
Sammanfattning : In the pentose phosphate pathway, carbohydrates such as glucose and ribose are degraded with production of reductive power and energy. Another important function is to produce essential pentoses, such as ribose 5-phosphate, which later can be used in biosynthesis of nucleic acids and cofactors. LÄS MER
17. Expression and structure-function characterisation of herpesviral proteins
Sammanfattning : In order to determine and study a protein structure, large amounts of it is needed. The easiest way to obtain a protein is to recombinantly overexpress it in the well-studied bacterium Escherichia coli. However, this expression host has one major disadvantage, overexpressed proteins might not be folded or be insoluble. LÄS MER
18. Structure-function studies of glutaredoxins and related oxidoreductases
Sammanfattning : The members of the ubiquitous group of thiol-disulfide oxidoreductases are characterized by a conserved tertiary structure, the thioredoxin (Trx) fold, and by having a consensus -C-X-X-C- active site sequence motif. By utilizing the active site cysteines, these proteins participate in redox reactions by catalyzing reversible disulfide oxidation and reduction. LÄS MER
19. Modulating the structure-function relationship of mucin materials
Sammanfattning : Mucus covers the epithelium surfaces playing a key role in the barrier, hydration, lubrication and bioactivity functions for the human body, and mucins are the fundamental components of mucus which provide such functions. However, many details in how these functions are related to the many structural features of mucins are still unknown. LÄS MER
20. Conserved structure-function relationships in the mediator complex
Sammanfattning : The Mediator complex is an essential multiprotein coregulator of RNA polymerase II (pol II)- dependent transcription in fungi and metazoans. Mediator interacts directly with both pol II and sequence-specific transcriptional regulators and thus acting as a bridge between the two. LÄS MER
