21. Mass spectrometry-based proteomic strategies applied to Helicobacter pylori. A Search for candidate vaccine antigens
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the development and refinement of proteomic strategies and the application of these on the human gastric pathogen H. pylori. The purpose was to identify proteins, and in particular membrane proteins, as potential targets for vaccine development. LÄS MER
22. Structure and Interactions of Human IgG-Fc
Sammanfattning : This thesis involves structure and interaction studies of the Fc fragment of human IgG. For this purpose, hIgG-Fc of different subclasses were cloned and expressed in the eukaryotic host Pichia pastoris, where relevant protein modification at the post-translational level can be obtained.

23. Outer membrane proteins of Yersinia pestis : Ail and OmpA
Sammanfattning : A vast number of studies have been completed on the virulence determinants of Yersinia spp.; however, the focus of many of these studies has been on the virulence plasmid and the plasmid-encoded Type three secretion system. Nevertheless, many chromosomal genes whose products are directly involved in virulence have also been identified. LÄS MER
24. Porins of Borrelia burgdorferi
Sammanfattning : Borrelia burgdorferi is a pathogenic spirochete which cycles between its arthropod vector and vertebrate host. If transmitted to humans, B. burgdorferi causes Lyme disease, an infection which can impair different organs, such as the skin, joints, nervous system and heart. LÄS MER
25. Genetic organization of encapsulated and non-encapsulated Haemophilus influenzae strains. Analysis of the glpTQ and 23S rRNA operons
Sammanfattning : Encapsulated Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) and non-encapsulated H. influenzae (NTHi) are important pathogens causing invasive and mucosal infections in children. A 42 kDa surface-exposed lipoprotein, protein D, has been found to be a potential virulence factor of NTHi. LÄS MER
