21. Protein trafficking in the cell envelope of Escherichia coli : Identification and characterisation of a novel chaperone
Sammanfattning : The cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria, like Escherichia coli, is composed of a cytoplasmic membrane, a periplasmic space containing a peptidoglycan layer and an outer membrane. About 30 % of all proteins are localised in the cell envelope. LÄS MER
22. The molecular chaperone CCT: Functions beyond folding
Sammanfattning : The chaperonin-containing tailless complex polypeptide 1 (CCT) is a eukaryotic ~1 MDa barrel shaped molecular chaperone, built up by eight distinct subunits and is required for the folding of the abundant cytoskeletal proteins actin and tubulin. CCT exists as an assembled oligomer, micro-complexes and as individual subunits in the cell. LÄS MER
23. Angiopoietin-like protein 4 : an unfolding chaperone regulating lipoprotein lipase activity
Sammanfattning : Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is the main enzyme hydrolyzing triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in plasma. Proteoglycan-bound LPL on the vascular endothelium represent the functional pool of active enzyme. LPL is regulated in a tissue specific manner according to metabolic demands. LÄS MER
24. NMR as a tool in drug research : Structure elucidation of peptidomimetics and pilicide-chaperone complexes
Sammanfattning : In the last decades NMR spectroscopy has become an invaluable tool both in academic research and in the pharmaceutical industry. This thesis describes applications of NMR spectroscopy in biomedicinal research for structure elucidation of biologically active peptides and peptidomimetics as well as in studies of ligand-protein interactions.

25. The Extended Role of the Molecular Chaperone CCT
Sammanfattning : The oligomeric chaperone CCT is a large ATP-dependent chaperonin that consists of two rings placed back-to-back with eight different paralogous subunits with a size of ~ 55 kDa that sit in each of the two rings. The function of CCT is mainly to fold the abundant proteins actin and tubulin, components of the cytoskeleton. LÄS MER
