  1. 1. Thermodynamics of Protein Folding and Design

    Författare :Erik Sandelin; Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein folding; hydrophobicity; Monte Carlo; sequence analysis; sequence assembly; shotgun sequencing; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; classical mechanics; quantum mechanics; relativity; gravitation; statistical physics; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; thermodynamics; termodynamik; Fysicumarkivet A:2000:Sandelin; statistisk fysik; relativitet; protein design; klassisk mekanik; kvantmekanik;

    Sammanfattning : The protein folding and protein design problems are addressed, using coarse-grained models with only two types of amino acids, hydrophobic and hydrophilic. In addition to hydrophobicity forces, the models contain sequence-independent local interactions which are found to strongly influence the thermodynamics of these models. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Variational Methods in Combinatorial Optimization and Phylogeny Reconstruction

    Författare :Henrik Jönsson; Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; statistical physics; gravitation; relativity; annealing; variational; mean-field; phylogeny; constraint satisfaction; combinatorial optimization; maximum likelihood; Physics; Fysik; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; quantum mechanics; classical mechanics; klassisk mekanik; kvantmekanik; relativitet; statistisk fysik; termodynamik; Fysicumarkivet A:2001:Jönsson; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; thermodynamics;

    Sammanfattning : Algorithms based on the variational approach, as used in statistical physics, are developed. For constraint satisfaction problems a novel cost function, based on information-theoretic arguments, is introduced, and an algorithm similar to the mean-field annealing algorithm is proposed.

  4. 3. Hydrophobicity Patterns in Protein Folding

    Författare :Frank Potthast; Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; global optimization; multisequence; Fourier analysis; hydrophobicity; protein folding; simulated tempering; statistical physics; thermodynamics; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; kvantmekanik; klassisk mekanik; gravitation; relativitet; termodynamik; statistisk fysik; alpha-helix; protein design.; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; quantum mechanics; classical mechanics; relativity; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Potthast;

    Sammanfattning : The protein folding problem is addressed focussing on the hydro- phobicity patterns in the amino acid sequences and structures. Both real and model proteins are investigated. The hydrophobicity pattern of real proteins is probed in two ways. First, it is asked which binary pattern is most conserved within groups of related proteins. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates thermoelectric effects, predominantly in low-dimensional semiconductors. Various novel phenomena are predicted, investigated and discussed. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Microscopic Properties of Superdeformed Nuclei

    Författare :Lennart B Karlsson; Matematisk fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; statistical physics; gravitation; superdeformation; Nilsson-Strutinsky; modified oscillator potential; moments of inertia; transition energies; rotational bands; quadrupole moments; spin assignments; identical bands; additivity.; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; classical mechanics; relativity; quantum mechanics; kvantmekanik; klassisk mekanik; thermodynamics; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; termodynamik; relativitet; statistisk fysik; Fysicumarkivet A:1999:Karlsson;

    Sammanfattning : Many high spin rotational bands in superdeformed nuclei have been found in the A ~ 140-150 region, but so far no linking transitions to known normal-deformed states have been found in these nuclei. Therefore, configuration and spin assignments have to be based on indirect spectroscopic information. LÄS MER
