  1. 1. Dynamics of peptide chains during co-translational translocation, membrane integration & domain folding

    Författare :Rickard Hedman; Gunnar von Heijne; Daniel N. Wilson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ribosome; membrane integration; translocation; folding; arrest peptide; SecM; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : The biosynthesis of proteins occurs at the ribosomes, where amino acids are linked together into linear chains. Nascent protein chains may undergo several different processes during their synthesis. Some proteins begin to fold, while others interact with chaperones, targeting factors or processing enzymes.

  3. 2. Production and folding of proteins in the periplasm of Escherichia coli

    Författare :Rageia Elfageih; Jan-Willem de Gier; Hans-Georg Koch; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Escherichia coli; periplasm; recombinant protein production; disulfide bond containing proteins; translation initiation region; protein translocation machinery; co-translational folding; neuraminidases; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The Gram-negative bacterium E. coli is the most widely used host for the production of recombinant proteins. Disulfide bond containing recombinant proteins are usually produced in the periplasm of E. coli since in this compartment of the cell - in contrast to the cytoplasm - disulfide bond formation is promoted.

  4. 3. Membrane and secretory protein production in Escherichia coli

    Författare :Alexandros Karyolaimos; Jan-Willem de Gier; Matthew DeLisa; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Escherichia coli; recombinant protein; tunable protein production; cytoplasmic membrane; periplasm; signal peptide; force profile analysis; co-translational folding; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Escherichia coli (E. coli) is the most widely used bacterium for the production of recombinant proteins. However, the production of proteins in its cytoplasmic membrane or periplasm is challenging. Therefore, the aim of this doctoral thesis was to develop setups for enhancing the production of membrane and secretory proteins in E. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Pulling Force Studies of Secretory Protein Translocation into the Endoplasmic Reticulum

    Författare :Theresa Kriegler; Tara Hessa; Patricia Clark; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Co-translational translocation; Xbp1 arrest peptide; Translocon-associated protein TRAP complex; Prion protein; Insulin; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : More than 30% of human genes encode secretory or membrane proteins. Most secretory proteins are targeted to the Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane via cleavable N-terminal signal sequences either in a co- or post-translational manner. They enter or cross the membrane using a protein translocating channel (translocon). LÄS MER
