1. Cryo-EM Studies of Macromolecular Complexes from Photosynthetic Organisms
Sammanfattning : Plants, algae, and cyanobacteria convert light energy into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis, fueling the planet and making life as we know it possible. Photosystem I (PSI) is one of the main photosynthetic complexes, responsible for this process. LÄS MER
2. Structural characterisation of mitochondrial macromolecular complexes using cryo-EM : Mitoribosome biogenesis and respiratory chain supercomplex
Sammanfattning : Mitochondria, popularly known as powerhouse of the cell, contain specialised mitoribosomes that synthesise essential membrane proteins. These essential proteins are required to form enzyme complexes, which carry out the process of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). LÄS MER
3. Cryo-EM and Computational Biology of Macromolecular Complexes
Sammanfattning : The ribosome is a large, ancient multicomponent macromolecular complex which is highly amenable to study by cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and computation biology methods. This thesis delves into the structure of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic ribosomes in the context of determining a solution to emerging antimicrobial resistance. LÄS MER
4. Light’EM up! : structural characterization of light-driven membrane protein complexes by cryogenic electron microscopy
Sammanfattning : Photosynthesis is probably the most important process for allowing life to develop into the diverse forms we see today. In this process, solar radiation is used to convert CO2 into biomass. From this process, we obtain oxygen to breathe, sources of food (plant biomass), and the potential for clean and sustainable energy. LÄS MER
5. Fast and reliable alignment and classification of biological macromolecules in electron microscopy images
Sammanfattning : In the last century, immense progress has been made to charter and understand a wide range of biological phenomena. The origin of genetic inheritance was determined, showing that DNA holds genes that determine the architecture of proteins, utilized by the cell for most functions. LÄS MER
